The Woman In Black 2: Angel Of Death
When a group of orphaned children are forced to move from their home in London, caretakers Eve (Phoebe Fox) and Jean (Helen McCrory) bring everyone to the desolate and eerie British countryside. 40 years after Arthur Kipps (played by Daniel Radcliffe in the first film, The Woman in Black) left, this supernatural horror film introduces this new group to the now abandoned Eel Marsh House; an odd but seemingly safe location. It isn';;t long before Eve starts to sense that this house is not what it appears to be as the children in her care begin to disappear. As their house of safety becomes a house of horrors, Eve enlists the help of a handsome pilot (Jeremy Irvine) to help investigate what is happening. Eve soon discovers that it may not be a coincidence that she has come to reside in the house inhabited by the Woman in Black

A seriously underwhelming sequel...February 22, 2016
Offering nothing new in the way of shocks and suspense and relying on tired horror tropes, this is a tiresome slog rather than a chilling sequel. A disappointing follow-up to the far superior original.January 02, 2015
The Woman may be back for another fright, but Angel of Death doesn't haunt like it should.December 18, 2015
Much of the horror boils down to heavily underscored jump scares that are neither particularly frightening nor, like the movie as a whole, memorable.September 20, 2016
Angel of Death took that solid foundation and wasted it with unoriginal, lazy storytelling and a drab visual sensibility.January 07, 2016
Tom Harper does a truly admirable job of using atmosphere and the movie's creepy setting to give audiences a sense of unease, but moves away from the deadly force we were introduced to in 2012, which feels like a bit of a step backwards.January 09, 2015
Director Tom Harper conveys this theme through dark, moldy-looking mise-en-scene and the uniformly sullen performances he elicits from the cast; you're more likely to find this depressing than scary.March 28, 2016
Not as gripping as the original -- but it works for what it is.January 02, 2015
It's a dour, drab, dark movie, enlivened by some moderately effective chills in the first half but ultimately undone by its downbeat aimlessness.January 02, 2015
Redundancy is about all it offers, despite an entirely new set of characters and a story set 40 years after the early 20th-century original.January 09, 2015
The sequel is about as far from the original source as you can get while still using the title, The Woman in Black. It is just as far away from being interesting.January 02, 2015
"The Woman in Black 2" might have served as an effective tribute to movies like "Curse of the Cat People." That is, if it hadn't completely squandered all this goodwill in its last third.
