    She dialed it in. I won’t ruin it for you but she’s so bad In the movie. Not because she lacks talent but the garbage they have say and what happens to her character is garbage.

    The makeup is actually decent. Lighting. Etc. all good.

    Story is just awful. They plan to make two more. I don’t see how as this was bad.

    There was one jump scare. Otherwise nothing. No real horror. My girlfriend said she’s never been bored in a horror movie or felt so bored

      Yes, I heard she is barely in the movie. And the other cameo I heard about is nothing.

      Yeah, I can’t believe it’s a planned trilogy. It does seem that DGG may not be returning to direct though, so that’s promising. From what I’ve heard about the story of this and based on how Haloween went, he seems to be obsessed with the community banding together to fight. And that just doesn’t make sense for an exorcism. I will watch it at some point just for curiosity sake, but I don’t think I will be spending money on it.

        The other cameo was disappointing. Very flat and needless.

        I like rogue one and the cameo for Vader was incredible. That’s how a cameo should be done.

        This was just a cameo to that person was in it.
