About

You may enjoy this if you want an over-the-top, fast-moving horror sequel with wild dream set pieces and a cartoonish tone; Not for you if you’re after serious scares, coherent rules, or grounded slasher tension like The Rift.

Pros: energetic pace; a few creative nightmares; memorable soundtrack moments | Cons: more goofy than scary; messy story logic; uneven effects
