Sequel? Like immediate sequel, it's the next day!
Grace is taken to hospital after her new husband died, and her sister turns up. However, ex-hubby family has decided that steps need to be taken and kidnap both of them, and Grace must die before dawn so one of them can get the seat.
Samara Weaving and Kathryn Newton are sister... sure, okay... and they are fine. They get kind of an arc, which is about three scenes of them yelling at each other in between lots of violence. Quite comic violence at that! David Cronenberg is appropriately creepy in his cameo, and Sarah Michelle Geller should get better parts than this. The only one clearly having fun is Elijah Wood.
Theme-wise, it's the same as the first movie, only with more people. And the movie looks about the same too, so... successful sequel that is just the first movie again? Seems like. It works, but doesn't do anything amazing.
