Somebody tell me ...

... what happened to the devil baby they brought into the world at the end of the first one? Did I sleep through the explanation of how that little ceremony failed, or was there no explanation given? Because I'm pretty sure that kid was supposed to bring hell on earth (which would have been pretty bad, I'll grant you, but it would have made this sequel unnecessary, which would have been a wonderful thing.)

Purely as an editorial note on my part, will someone in Hollywood please aspire to make a horror movie that does not rely solely on jump scares? When the previously unseen dog barks at Nell in this movie just for a scare, we officially jumped the shark with the jump scares. At some point, it's just pathetic. There were only two other people in the theater with me, both of them teenage girls, and neither one reacted to a single jump scare. It's just so lame ... somebody in Hollywood take pride in making real horror again, please.

Mr./Ms. Vegetable, what, pray tell, is the spoiler in question? ... revealing the end of a movie that came out two and a half years ago, or revealing that this movie sucks?

P.S. - if you actually are in a persistent vegetative state (which the tenor of your remark would tend to indicate), then I apologize for making fun of your screen name.

Thank you for confirming the meaninglessness of your previous post by providing an equally pointless follow-up. If you come up with a point, get back to us - as it is, your time is probably better spent on your homework.

(Edited to add): I apologize. From a couple minutes spent looking at your astounding (really more troubling than astounding) history of imdb activity, it's clear you are not a teenager as I thought. You are also not, most likely, a vegetable. However, what is clear is that you have never, not a single time, actually had a point. On anything. The sheer volume of your body of work is both disturbing and quite sad. As such, I'm not going to hold you to coming back with a point. You're out of your depth here, I'm afraid.

Bump ... was there ever any explanation offered or implied for the fate of the demon baby at the end of part one, or is it assumed the fire that supposedly killed everyone got the little devil too (though the dad obviously made it out ok)?

Ah yes, the curiously reliable homophobic wit of everyone's favorite dolt.

I realize you consider trolling imdb boards for several hours a day making insults and lame attempts at spelling and humor a "life," but you really need to turn off the computer once in a while and interact with real human beings face-to-face. Of course I don't mean me or anyone with any class, but I'm sure there are people out there for you ... socially retarded little men, emboldened by the anonymity of the cyber playground where they live out hollow shells of lives amidst a detritus of broken dreams, Fritos and '70s porn. Yes, you should have the first meeting right there in your basement apartment and leave the internet, if only for a few hours, to people who have something to contribute.

Or just come back and make an ass of yourself per usual so you can get the last vapid word in. Oh, what's that?... Why, I just predicted the future! (This time though, maybe have someone read this post to you a couple times before you respond - your reading comprehension is in question, given some of your nonsensical, hastily-penned, prior responses.)

Points for consistency - even your imaginary friend is homophobic. Well, he hurt my feelings, I'm leaving.

But before I do ... ladies and gentleman, one final trick! Yes, yes, tonight, within the next thirty minutes I say, in the very next post I shall produce before your eyes a real, honest-to-god mid-life-douchebag - late of the Lady Gaga message board where he has an extended engagement insulting teenage girls and several suspicious men also vying for their attention - he will appear here to offer an inane, likely homophobic retort, so that he might proudly lay claim the hollow victory of the last word. That's right, an adult male who we know won't let us down as he hasn't had evening plans since his parents took him out for his 23rd birthday ... for your amazement (and pity), I offer you ... he'll be here, don't worry.

Thanks for your utter predictability, goofball. You make magic look easy. Writing too.

Sorry for the late reply. My belief is that the demon (Abalam?)has the baby. There was a scene where Nell picks up the phone and "Chris" tells her something like "I want to be inside you" & you can hear a baby crying in the background.

Hey thanks for actually posting a response to the OP's question... The fighting was annoying because I was interested in someone answering! :)

[–] germite 12 years ago

My theory was that the baby was the incarnation of Abalam in this world and that now that he's here, he was able to torment Nell in this movie and ultimately try to take her over.

While this sounds odd, I figured the baby was a demonic entity who I think they threw into the fire in the end of the first one (but I could be remembering that wrong), thereby transforming him into energy or an ethereal being.

I'm sure this is all wrong, though. So why did I post it? Hmmm...

"Stwike him, Centuwion ... vewy Wuffwy!"

Hahahaha! Best comment I've read on IMDB...maybe ever. I think I might love you! :-D

Throwing the baby into the fire couldn't kill it; it would make it transform to its real form. And the cult knew it. But they (and the priest) couldn't defeat it.

I'm pretty sure that kid was supposed to bring hell on earth

In this movie, it's revealed that the demon is in love with NELL. It wants to create havoc, but 1st it wants to make sure they're together.

will someone in Hollywood please aspire to make a horror movie that does not rely solely on jump scares?

It's one of the easiest tricks in the genre. So we have to expect it from low budget movies.
