As far as improbable sequels go, "Black Phone 2" isn't too bad. Revive a deceased bad guy you would have thought was done with and craft a tale that feels somewhat like the first film, blended with an almost "Nightmare on Elm Street" premise. I have to say these elements combined with a dash ... of nostalgia from the 80's works, quite well. Sure its not A grade horror but its still creative, creepy and above all, entertaining. In summary, a not unfamiliar but still well crafted tale of revenge from beyond the grave. Worth a look.
