This is one of the few horror sequels that is better than the original. It takes everything that made Creep good and amplifies it.
A common complaint with Creep is that Aaron doesn't see the red flags and keeps going with Josef. While I understand Aaron's reasoning of Josef just seeming like an eccentric person, this movie addresses that complaint well through our protagonist: Sara. She knew what she was getting into when she accepted Josef's job offer and she wants to stay with him to get footage for her show.
Where this movie truly shines, however, is exploring Josef. We get a full deep dive into his character and how his mind works. We see him open up, reveal more about himself, and the suggestion that Buddy in the first movie was his nickname for Aaron makes it a lot creepier and better. The best part, however, is the ending, where Josef plans to kill him and Sara, against her will, because he's tired of living. Then Sara escapes, thankfully, but we see him following her. Then it ends. Just a brilliant sequel.
Overall, an amazing sequel to Creep that enhances the stories of both movies.

Rarely does a sequel surpass its predecessor, but Creep 2 not only outdoes the original—it skyrockets into an entirely different league of brilliance. It’s an electrifying, mind-bending continuation of the story that manages to be darker, funnier, more unsettling, and, yes, 100,000 times better than the first film. If Creep was the pinnacle of found footage horror, Creep 2 raises the bar so high it’s hard to imagine anything else reaching it.
Where Creep thrived on tension and ambiguity, Creep 2 takes bold creative risks, diving deeper into the psyche of its terrifying yet strangely magnetic antagonist, Josef—now going by the name Aaron. Mark Duplass delivers an absolutely unhinged, tour-de-force performance, leaning into the character’s blend of vulnerability and menace with unsettling charisma. This time, however, the dynamic shifts: Aaron is no longer simply the hunter. He meets his match in Sara, a fearless and determined filmmaker who answers his Craigslist ad, seeking something “different” for her failing web series.
And boy, does she find it.
Sara, played brilliantly by Desiree Akhavan, brings a fresh energy to the film that elevates it far beyond the typical sequel. Her boldness and refusal to cower in the face of Aaron’s increasingly bizarre and sinister behavior flips the dynamic entirely. Watching their twisted cat-and-mouse relationship unfold is mesmerizing. Sara isn’t just a passive victim—she’s an active participant, and her willingness to challenge Aaron’s persona creates some of the most nail-biting, tension-filled moments of the entire franchise.
The film’s brilliance lies in its ability to balance psychological horror with dark humor. It’s wickedly funny at times, with Aaron delivering chilling monologues that are equal parts absurd and terrifying. Yet, beneath the humor, there’s a raw vulnerability to his character that makes him even more unpredictable and dangerous. You feel like you’re witnessing the unraveling of a monster in real time, and the results are both horrifying and fascinating.
Creep 2 also pushes the boundaries of the found footage genre, offering even more inventive and unsettling cinematography. Director Patrick Brice creates an atmosphere of constant unease, using long, unbroken takes and eerie silences to keep the tension at a fever pitch. Every frame feels deliberate, every moment meticulously crafted to keep you on edge.
And the twists? They’re masterful. Just when you think you’ve figured out the direction, the film pivots, leaving you breathless and completely unprepared for what’s next. The climactic moments are nothing short of genius, culminating in an ending that feels as shocking and satisfying as it is inevitable.
Creep 2 is everything a sequel should be: bold, inventive, and unafraid to take risks. It deepens the mythology of the first film while standing on its own as a completely unique and unforgettable experience. It’s a rarity in horror—a follow-up that not only honors the original but transcends it in every way.
For fans of the first film or anyone seeking a truly groundbreaking piece of psychological horror, Creep 2 isn’t just a recommendation—it’s a must-see. It’s the kind of movie that sticks with you, making you question everything you thought you knew about fear, manipulation, and what makes a sequel great. A modern masterpiece.
