Fantastic!

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

The last exorcism part 2 (2013) is a very lackluster attempt at making a scary, entertaining horror movie. The film has many different things that are done wrong. The acting from the cast members really isn't very good, the lead has moments where her performance is believable, but overall I felt like her performance was very lacking. Her performance, while not that great, was at least better than the the rest of the cast, I'm not sure if the cast just didn't have a lot to work with material wise or if they're just bad actors, but either way, I was very disappointed. The writing is very basic, it seemed pretty bare minimum. It's like the screenwriters wrote just what they had to for it to pass as a movie and then just left it at that. The effects are so so, really there is nothing at all to marvel at in the special effects department. I really wasn't impressed at all by anything throughout the entire movie. There were a couple scenes where I was kind of interested and wanting to know what would happen next, but ultimately, that just lead to disappointment. In the one or two interesting scenes, the scenes immediately following are huge let downs. I was hoping they would do something interesting and really original at the interesting parts, but they just resorted to old tired bad horror movie clichés that most movie goers are very sick of. Unfortunately, the last exorcism part 2 gets a 3/10.

While "The Last Exorcism Part II" isn't a particularly great or memorable movie, it was at least better than part one. That being said, then the second part doesn't rise above mediocrity though.Story-wise "The Last Exorcism Part II" is an improvement up from the dull story in the first movie. Director Ed Gass-Donnelly does manage to build up the movie nicely and set up a continuous growing sense of thrill, which unfortunately comes to an untimely end in a very, very anti-climatic moment. Which was a shame, because up to that point it is not fully clear as to what is really going on. And from thereon it just went downhill.Ashley Bell really outdid her previous performance with "The Last Exorcism Part II", compared to part one. And she helped the movie along really well with her acting.The ending was actually interesting and did set up something potentially phenomenal. Yes, it was corny and predictable, but it was just the right ending for the movie.If you have seen the first movie, you definitely have to watch part two.

The Last Exorcism, Part 2 (2013): Dir: Ed Gass-Donnelly / Cast: Ashley Bell, Julia Garner, Spencer Treat Clark, Tarra Riggs, Muse Watson: While the first film had amusing elements regarding phony preachers and the whole reality take on things, this sequel is standard and boring. We are given flashes of the first film during the credits then possessed Ashley Bell ends up in some strange couple's bed and eventually in their kitchen. Then she ends up at a halfway house in hopes to make her normal. She is in the wrong film for that sort of help. Bell is a talented actress but her role here is laughable. Apparently the demon possessing her gives her massive orgasms in her sleep while her body elevates and arches above her bed in a display that would leave pornographers in envy. Julia Garner plays the standard brat out to make Bell's halfway house experience more embarrassing. Spencer Treat Clark plays that standard guy out to possess Bell sexually. Tarra Riggs is laughable as this spiritual woman out to exorcize her. Muse Watson has the laughable role of landlord of sorts for a home for girls. Perhaps these girls were locked away so that they could not flee the set. This is all visually well made and directed but very bloody stupid. It is just a money grab with no other reason to exist. This film is so bad that the only good it can do is to be tossed in a garbage disposal and possess that for a few minutes. Hopefully Miss Bell will not be remembered for this forever but one must wonder whether she would react with the same facial actions if this junk ends up summing up her career. Best wishes for her. Score: 2 / 10

"The Last Exorcism: Part II" is a run-of-the-mill tale of demonic possession whose every "thrill" is telegraphed miles in advance.Ashley Bell is a young woman who is sent to live in a home for troubled girls in New Orleans after her family is killed, probably as a result of their membership in a satanic cult (I have no idea if familiarity with the first film is helpful in understanding this one, but it probably couldn't hurt). Weird things keep happening as the forces of evil mount their assault on the most hapless, put-upon little Nell since "The Old Curiosity Shop."It's hard to tell which is more tiresome and hackneyed - the demon-possession scenario replete with oodles of exorcism rituals and Satanic mumbo-jumbo, or the employment of every horror movie staple from false scares to levitating bodies to figures skittering by in the foreground of the picture. There's very little about the movie that feels original so we're left to ponder all the better versions we've seen of the same story while ticking off the minutes till the closing credits come crawling by.
