The Doll 2

The second of The Doll trilogy (And the last for me to watch, my bad) this Indonesian horror is pretty much exactly the same movie as the other two and that is no exaggeration.

Another ghost, another doll, another twist, though make no mistake these films aren't killer doll movies at all and are closer to the possession horror sub-genre.

The third is certainly the best but all of them are watchable, just unshocking and rather generic stuff. Thankfully consistency, continuity and a recurring cast go a long way in helping the franchises credibility.

Some things defy belief though (And I'm not referring to the supernatural element) for example the houses our protagonists live in are near mansions. This is Indonesia, there is a very wide gap between the haves and have nots and based on what these people do for a living they'd not be living in such luxury. These houses are the type the wealthy in the west would struggle to afford!

Anyway I digress, the entire franchise is passable enough but once you've seen one you've truly seen them all.

The Good:

Follows on from part 1 well

Franchise has a competent cast

The Bad:

A few absurdities

In my opinion the movie was terrifying at the end! I'm gonna get nightmares tonight ngl... however the noises were a bit too much...

They recycled a lot of things from the first movie, as all sequels do. But the history here is more cohesive, although still there's a lot of scenes just to pad out and make the film longer. All in all, I found it better than the original and a good option to whom wants some chills and scares.

2018 Indonesian horror movie. The movie is the classic cursed doll movie. But the cinema techniques are pretty good huh.

They are smashing mercedes or something in terms of budget. What is that doll? Damn ugly. If I were a child, I would be afraid of him anyway.

It is a movie full of people who have drunk a lot of words and immortality.

3rd movie is on the way.

The Doll 2 is a hardly passable derivative horror film. Frankly, I don't think my friends and I were scared at all when we were watching it. The team behind this has a lot to work on and the first thing they should start with is their audio. One doesn't simply keep everything loud all the time and exclude ambient sound for re-recording.
