Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Nigel P This sequel to the 2010 film fore-goes the 'found footage' style in favour of a more polished, straight-forward manner of continuing the story. Happily, Ashley Bell returns as the previously possessed Nell, found skulking, glassy-eyed and terrified following her earlier ordeal. She is placed in a psychiatric hospital, which carefully helps her to adjust to 'real life' where she gets a job, tentatively begins a relationship with a boy and makes friends with the others who live in the home for girls where she has been placed. But bad dreams, sinister nurses, imaginary (or otherwise) happenings and dreams of an increasingly dark sexual nature are never far away.It's a slow moving picture, which may explain why it didn't eclipse the success of the original. And yet the time is taken to really allow us to know Nell as a person, and sympathise every time her delicate nature is fractured either by supernatural events, or the betrayal of her friends: in a clever development, the 'found footage' from the previous film has been loaded onto YouTube, and through that medium the other girls from the home become familiar with Nell's.Ashley Bell is excellent throughout. She conveys Nell's scripted unease with the world beyond her sheltered home-life with touches of surprise, curiosity and anger at the new strangeness around her, never quite sure of the apparitions she sees are part of 'normality', or fragments of her imagination …As well as this notoriety, Nell has also been observed for some time by The Order of the Right Hand, a group who promise to help her. Calder (David Jensen) and Jeffrey (E. Roger Mitchell), who run the group, conduct an exorcism but the demon Abalam is too strong, and they inject Nell with a lethal morphine dose (cure or kill, it seems). The demon appears to her as she dies, in the forms of people she knows, beseeching her too take their hand. When she does, Abalam finally possesses her fully and she sets about killing all those who have let her down. To show Nell is truly irredeemable by this point, she becomes a fan of that (inexplicable) modern horror staple, heavy metal – because clearly, all horror fans also love hard rock music (we don't)! Despite that last detail, this film is a thoroughly enjoyable sequel and a good story in its own right. Even if it had been more successful (it still turned in a $10 million profit, so it didn't fair badly), it is difficult to imagine how Nell's story could possibly continue.
Paul Magne Haakonsen 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.
Python Hyena 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
yaktheripper I wasn't a big fan of the "The Last Exorcism"; for myself it was an average scare flick, not a really a gem of the genre. The creatively titled "The Last Exorcism II" however is an inspired and creepy journey towards one woman's and perhaps humanities doom. The low score you'll see on the home page is due to a lack of imagination in today's average movie goer. A great deal of suspense built into this movie is visceral...it's what your NOT seeing that is disturbing. And that is what ticks me off about the low scores. Okay...so there's no monster chopping off heads or people being physically tortured or women showing their breasts. So it burns a little slow...so it uses atmosphere and environment to build tension, is this a reason to rate it low? If you have no imagination and can't focus on a movie for more then 10 minutes if there's no blood or CGI monsters to be found then yes....I guess it is. The director's behind this little gem hopefully are off to make even better movies and I look forward to what they can do in the future. Well done! Fans of demonic movies with a little bit of intelligence...this flick is for you...fans of gore and sex ONLY...steer clear.
