Creep 2 continues the story of Aaron, played by Mark Duplass, a serial killer who posts want ads on Craigslist seeking documentarians who inadvertently film their own murders. Sara, played by Desiree Akhavan, has a failing YouTube show and decides to take Aaron up on his offer. Throughout her documentary of Aaron, she empathizes with him and barely believes him while he swears he’s a serial killer. On the other hand, Aaron seems like he has finally found his match. Will he kill her? Will she kill him? Is this the end of the Craigslist serial killer as we know it? Review Creep 2 is one of those sequels that actually gives a fresh look on the original. It does not repeat overdone tropes or follow the same storyline whatsoever. This movie could stand alone and it still makes sense, and would still be very effective. There are funny one-liners, there are jump scares, there is a badass woman who won’t take any shit. This is not your typical killer chases victim movie. Besides the original, this movie is a fresh take on found footage horror, which is my favorite genre. It is excellent, it pulls all punches, and it takes you on a very adventurous ride. This truly is an exceptional feat of horror movie-making as we know it. Creep was good enough, and inventive enough, but this sequel takes it to a whole nother level. My only few complaints are that there could have been more fleshing out of Sara since she is the central character, and I think knowing what’s gonna happen upon rewatching makes it a bit less effective. Other than that, it’s pretty damn good. Score 8/10
