About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a more action-heavy, effects-driven sequel with road-trip momentum and plenty of weirdness; Not for you if you need a clear, grounded plot or steady scares like From Beyond.

Pros: fast-paced action-horror; wild creature attacks; fun weapon upgrades | Cons: confusing story beats; less eerie mood; uneven acting
