[Adds] additional layers of self-consciousness to a story that was already pretty derivative.

"Grave Encounters 2" is a miserable affair, a sequel to a movie that drummed up most of its attention online but one that had a few starts and scares along the way.

Rated: 1.5/5

Against all odds, it manages to be more irritating and insufferable than the first movie.

Deep Focus Review

Watching Grave Encounters 2 becomes an exercise in trying to find something you haven’t seen before—in other words, an exercise in futility.

Rated: 1/4

Way Too Indie

Waste any more time with these films and you'd be better off in a madhouse.

This movie definitely has its jump-in-your-seat moments while creating an eerie atmosphere for at least a section of the film, but it doesn't wholly live up to the reputation of its predecessor.

I think some aspects of this film were worse than the first, but I like how they tied in the story and it really made it good for me. People say this one is less "scary" but I disagree. They seem to miss the point of these films. It's not about jump scares and ghouls. It's psychological. The ever-bending reality around anyone who steps foot in this asylum. I think they beautiful expanded on the concept from before; especially that elevator scene!

No where near as good as the first, intro was useless, but still worth a watch if you like the first, just wouldn't watch it immediately after.

Simply to say it’s no where near as terrifying as the first. It would do you well to just skip to minute 36 in the movie as the start is pointless and rather annoying

This movie was so bad that I had to make a whole account on here to let everyone know. I would’ve rather watched Ghost Adventures react to a fart reverb in an abandoned asylum than watch this again. Terrible CGI and ghosts picking up cameras ultimately made the movie feel goofy. Also, their choice of songs throughout the movie was a whole 2 uncopywrited bass maxed beats. Every time they partied or drove, it was the same song. Probably the worst films I’ve ever watched lol If you want a good laugh though, ironically, this is the thing to watch.

Not as good as the first one. Cant start off the movie with the jerks and make them the protagonists. Kinda wanted them to go crazy.
