Official Review

Some horror franchises thrive off of trilogies. It’s that success that usually leads to a fourth, fifth, sixth, hell, to infinity installments. Not all of them are classics, not all of them are memorable, but usually they have a common denominator- a successful kick start that led to a progression of plot.
