Can’t look away - Smile 2 (2024) [Spoilers inside!]

Has anyone else seen this yet? Exactly same concept as the original but on a much bigger scale. Just like the original it is not, well, original - it borrows from across various films and references stuff like pop star meltdowns and the way they are covered, Black Swan, and of course Ringu (the timing).

I saw this and while the beats hit more or less the same the execution (so to speak) was a lot better. There was an interesting tonal shift with the casting of her best friend, who is very monotone and appears to be acting like a normal person would in a horror movie. It’s also a lot funnier IMO.

First one was on TV last night and it freaked me out a bit. just a bit.
