Review | Ready or Not 2: Here I Come movie review – Elijah Wood joins Samara Weaving for gory sequel

Unfortunately, the sequel feels stale by comparison. Ready or Not 2: Here I Come is a follow-up devoid of original ideas and too reliant on bone-crunching violence.

Picking up directly after the events of the original, with dead bodies aplenty, the story finds Grace in hospital with police circling. Enter her estranged sister Faith (Kathryn Newton), who was listed as her emergency contact.

They have not seen each other in years, since the older Grace took off for New York, much to her sister’s displeasure. But no sooner are they reunited than they are abducted and taken to a remote location.

The family that tried to kill Grace was part of a larger cabal of Satanists, and now the remaining families must come together to finish her off. While the winner will gain major power, there are rules: anyone who kills someone from a rival clan, even accidentally, will be wiped out unceremoniously.
