*Yawn*
After watching 'The Eye 2,' it's pretty clear that The Pang Brothers are overhyped one-hit wonders, who happened to make it big when the horror genre hit an all-time low.
Now the original film was far from great. It's actually one of the weaker films in the Asian Horror New Wave. But it at least had a few genuine scares, complemented by a killer ending. There's nothing remotely interesting in this phoned-in sequel. Not one good idea is present. Not a single frame is scary. Even hardcore fans will forget this as soon as the credits roll.
Avoid.
