Holy hell, that was brutal! Also unnerving, anxiety-inducing, & super creepy. I enjoyed this much more than the first but oh my god, it may actually give me nightmares thanks to some of the imagery. Haven't been genuinely disturbed by a film in awhile, so kudos to Smile 2 for getting under my skin. - ThreadSky

I need to watch it!

mevsmatze.bsky.social•10 days ago

I did like the first one, but I am constantly hearing this one's even better. Been curious to watch it

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

This one blows that one away, imo. I hope you get the opportunity to watch it soon- I'll be curious to hear what you think about it!

mevsmatze.bsky.social•10 days ago

I think it'll hit Paramount Plus here in the next months, so it won't be that long 🤞

antiheroine.bsky.social•10 days ago

It was SO much better than the first one! I didn't care for the first one and didn't intend on seeing the second, but I kept hearing so many good things about it that I finally did and was pleasantly surprised. What a bold ending, too.

stinasdemons.com•9 days ago

Right? I, too, had not planned on seeing the new one until I saw/read people raving about it so I took a chance and am so glad I did!

hollyhazmat.bsky.social•10 days ago

Such a MEAN movie lol I loved it

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

Omg, yes- it was vicious!!

richtate.com•10 days ago

I also loved it. Naomi Scott was incredible. The soundtrack is also fantastic.

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

Agree, she was fantastic and so was the score. Even her songs were pitch perfect (no pun intended, lol).

paulduane.bsky.social•10 days ago

yes! I was completely not expecting this to be one of the best horror movies of 2024 but it really is. That ending!

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

It's definitely one of my favorites, now. Just so completely and utterly savage, lol.

stringerseven.bsky.social•10 days ago

Right? Naomi Scott was tremendous in this, and wow to how the film sticks to the landing 🙌🙌

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

It was SO good! I was very pleasantly surprised (& disturbed 😆)!!

scottyd89.bsky.social•10 days ago

I was so unimpressed by the first one. I keep hearing good things about this one. Your skeet sealed it. I’m going to have to watch this one.

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

Yeah, the first one I was more or less "eh" about, but this is so much better and savage as hell. Hope you like it!!

mogadontrenchcoat.bsky.social•10 days ago

that scene with the dancers in the apartment was hand down my favourite scene of last year. so we'll executed and utterly chilling!

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

So freaking uncanny, omg.

horrorfilms101.bsky.social•10 days ago

Really dug it too. One thing I appreciated was that Skye felt like a plausible pop star. Her songs are actually catchy, and she has the presence / look. Helps sell the premise in a way certain other nameless concert-based thrillers from 2024 didn’t. 👀

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

Yes, absolutely. I was wondering if they got Sia or someone to write the songs because they were exactly correct, vibe wise. (Although I will say, I wouldn't have minded Josh Hartnett popping up in this one 😆)

josephfinn.bsky.social•10 days ago

I need to catch up on this since I’m assured it doesn’t have my NOOOOOPE moment from the first one.

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

What's your "nope" moment?

josephfinn.bsky.social•10 days ago

What the kid pulls out at the birthday party.

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

Oh, yes. Did not like that at ALL... So much so that I had genuinely made myself forget about it until you alluded to it just now. But yeah, nothing like that in this one.

doitforduchess.bsky.social•10 days ago

I saw it in the theater and the intense sound direction was working overtime on my anxiety. So good.

tmbwrites.bsky.social•10 days ago

One of my faves from last year! Truly unsettling, and Naomi Scott is fucking incredible in this.

stinasdemons.com•10 days ago

It was so much better than the first! I was quite surprised at how savage & unnerving it was!
