There comes a point when you have to say no to these horror sequels. There's no skill or idea visible anywhere, just the sound of money being sucked from your pockets.

Although Sinister 2 continues the story begun in Scott Derrickson's creepily effective Sinister, it feels more like an unnecessary retread than an organic extension of the original.
James Berardinelli, ReelViews

Creepy kids and sick jokes make for meager scares, but Ransone is likable as the film's beleaguered hero.
Rafer Guzman, Newsday

This sequel, as rough as it is, might be more worthwhile than its 2012 original.
Bilge Ebiri, New York Magazine/Vulture
Rotten
Nothing in Sinister 2 comes across as believably scary.
