Audience Member this one is so much better than the first one, pretty cliche but enjoyable Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/01/25 Full Review Gabriel S Death Whisperer 2 picks up a few years after the ending of its predecessor, with Yak obssessed with finding the spirit, called a pop (ghoul), that killed his sister. That is the story pretty much. IMDB's plot summary is quite over the top, which is funny. Disregard it completely: Death Whisperer 2 is not a high-concept film. This time, writers Sorarat Jirabovornwisut (the only recurring writer in this series), Taweewat Wantha, and Krittanon opted for a simpler plotline: a main one and one subplot. The main one follows Yak and his quest; the subplot is about the haunting of Yak's family while he is away. While the main plot is pleasing, the subplot is a bit exploitative, it doesn't really add up to any character nor story development, its deletion unaffecting the main plot. The feeling is that this film is adapting a short story. Another change in comparison with the first installment is that there is a lot more comedic relief. Character Sarge throws more jokes than a comedian, sometimes being funny, others just being inappropriate. Other characters are also unfittingly funny in weird situations, which causes a bit of cringeness. The horror elements, though, are off. Where the first installment was creepier and had a lot more scares, Death Whisperer 2 feels more like a horror adventure for high-schoolers. Never was I in the edge of my seat, nor the jumpscares were effective. The storyline is simple and enjoyable, mainly because it feels like a tale, the quest of Yak for revenge. His motivation is so strong in his character that we root for his success, we want to see that ghoul pay. The ghoul, though, is just this evil entity without clear intentions other than just feeding off of humans, a bit uninspired. To wrap up this review, cinematography is beautiful with regards to photography, but bad when we look at the CGI. Blood and wounds are computerized, and they look digital. Maybe that was cheaper than going practical, but I wonder. The effects on the ghoul, however, are pretty nice. Overall, Death Whisperer 2 is a must to conclude the full narrative arc of Yak. If you enjoyed the first film, I figure these types of Eastern horror pleases you, so you won't be disappointed with this sequel, it plays by the rules and avoids risks, working out in the end. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/06/25 Full Review Audience Member Good plot, but what was the purpose of the extra actors if they died within 15mins of being introduced? Also, The movie is 40% Yak’s Muscles & Abs. Watch the movie and let me know if it’s accurate 👍 Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/09/25 Full Review Ronald S Despite featuring an intriguing storyline, the execution ultimately fell short in several key areas. The humor, awkwardly inserted at various points, undermined the tension and pacing of the narrative, leaving me puzzled and distracted. Some scenes, which seemed to aim for comic relief, came across as completely unnecessary and overly forced, resulting in moments of unintended absurdity. The film's reliance on plot armor was glaringly evident, with several contrived twists that seemed to appear out of nowhere, merely to propel the story toward a predetermined conclusion. These twists not only felt inorganic but also diminished the overall impact of the plot. The horror elements, primarily dependent on cheap jumpscares, appeared more reminiscent of a parody like Scary Movie rather than a genuine attempt at creating suspense or terror. It was as though the film was more concerned with startling the audience than building real tension or atmosphere. Despite these shortcomings, the script's flaws were somewhat compensated for by the cast's performances. While the writing was undeniably weak, some of the actors managed to infuse their roles with a level of sincerity and depth that provided brief moments of relief from the film's otherwise strained narrative.
