No Cotton? Then I have no interest,
Possession tales can be interesting, but the driving force for me behind the original (which I quite liked, and I hate horror films) was non believer Cotton seeing the truth. I guess he died in the first movie, which is a shame. They rewrote the end of Paranormal activity so they could do at least 3 sequels... should do the same here.
Following the girl may be about as stupid as the sequel to Donnie Darko being about the stupid sister no one cared about.
