How can something with 'Last' in the title have a sequel?


The first one should have been called The Second to the Last Exorcism. Discuss.

I remember a local furniture company where I grew up had their annual "going out of business" sale. It was hilarious and I remember once hearing "seventh annual".

Final Fantasy was to be Square's last video game, but it single handedly saved the company and now they're on Final Fantasy 12 or something...

The demon was never exorcised completely, so the exorcism was never really completed. Hence the continuation of that last exorcism, as part 2.

All that is,
All that was,
And all that's to be;
I'm just killing time,
And time's killing me.

THE LAST EXORCISM PART II suggests, in my opinion, that the sequel is a continuation of the last exorcism, no?
I don't mean to impose, but I am the Ocean.

Maybe because the story of her Exorcism hasn't been completed yet?

It wasn't an amazing film, but Nell is a character I'd like to see again. I'd give it 6/10. There's no way it deserves the score here it has currently because some take the title of the first film literally.

Your linear thinking... let's discuss.

Something with "Last" can have a sequel. The Last Exorcism is the story of s presumed event. The reason why it has a sequel is because the time frame of the dramatized event.

A sequel is just the continuation of an event.

Perhaps, Sequel 1 was the opening of the story and sequel 2 could be the body of the story. And then sequel 3 the end. If there's no 3, then the body of the story was either added to the opening or the end or split in two halves into the opening and the closing.
