Noel Murray Los Angeles Times 09/21/2017
The basic concept behind this franchise remains sound: take some borrowed scares from professional haunters, add a few spooky twists, then leave the audience puzzling over how much that they saw actually happened. Go to Full Review

It is as if “The Houses October Built 2” looked at the first film and said to itself, “Everyone is too affable. How can we make everyone annoying?” Not since “The Walking Dead” heavily reedited Glen escaping the dumpster has visual media so backtracked Go to Full Review

Let's call The Houses October Built 2 what it is. It's a vacation reel, released as a found footage horror film under the barest of pretenses to trick people out of their money. Go to Full Review
Ryan Larson Ghastly Grinning 06/24/2020
It's a little light on scares, and the conclusion is a little bit of a cop out, but it does a lovely job calling out a part of the fandom that is growing and presenting questions that need to be asked. Go to Full Review

If the first film wasn't so damn effective this experience wouldn't have been as disappointing. Go to Full Review

Al P @BoosterAp Nov 22 What! 30 mins of getting into the story expecting it to be like the first film. Next 30 minutes was like watching a youtube video of aweful halloween scares. And then a rubbish ending..... See more Brandon F 11/14/2024 genuinely the worst movie I've ever watched, I would of rather stared at a blank wall for two hours. See more Jason D 10/05/2024 I think I liked this ending even more than the first. See more Steven R 12/05/2023 I fell asleep during this movie so rewatched it to find out what I missed which ended up being absolutely nothing. See more Aaron D 09/27/2023 Because this movie is a disjointed careless mess, here is my disjointed careless review. Leaps worse than the first, which is saying a lot. This has got to be on the top 10 worst found footage horror films I've watched. It's never a good sign when the name of the movie isn't the same as the title card. Or the fact this movie is up under three different names on Amazon Prime. You'd better be Hellbent, if you think you will enjoy this. See more Leonard E 06/13/2022 BORRRRRING. Frustrating watch. I dont know how they make such terrible movies. How do these movies get made? Does the director not realize how bad his movie is? Do they not watch the final product? I cant imagine them sitting there watching this film thinking theyve done a good job. The actors did a terrible job, it didnt even seem like they were trying. Plot is stupid, apparently the characters didnt learn anything from the first movie. This one is longer than the first and even more boring. The characters are annoying morons, constantly making poor decisions, not communicating well, its frustrating. Nothing happens til the very end and it doesnt make up for the terrible first 1 hour and 30 minutes. By then you realized youve just wasted 1 hour and 40 minutes of your life. Its so bad that by the end I was rooting for the bad guys cause I hated the characters so much. They deserve what they got for being so stupid. Why are they shocked terrible things are happening to them when theyve been purposely walking directly into trouble the whole movie. Ending is STUPID. DUMB DUMB DUMB. Like the first movie, it never explains how the bad guys are capable of doing the things that they do; apparently they have ghost super powers. I wish I could give this movie 0 stars.
