The Haunting In Connecticut 2 : Ghosts of Georgia

Coming to Part II and still yet to master by creating the frightening and horror suspense but only for prolong the drama and trying hard to make it work and to no avail. Building on the terror of <The Haunting in Connecticut>, this tale traces a young family's nightmare into a centuries-old Southern hell and discover they are not the house's only inhabitants. A haunting secret rising underground and threatening to bring down anyone in its path. Sounds exciting?! Not really, the title <The Haunting In Connecticut 2 : Ghosts of Georgia> sounds inviting and horrifying and indeed makes a good marketing ploy but it doesn't matter what it called, it only matters what they really are. It is really a disaster, not only the title but also the movie itself. Moreover, the story is based on a true event, by having such advantage to making a movie, why not make it work. The entire film was full of contraction and lacking of communication and it wasn't even dark enough to believe. Not to mention that the "crime" scene is no longer in Connecticut, yet the American South is also a perfect setting for horror as it is remote, religious and more superstitious. However, they didn't make the best out it it. Was it Spooky? NO! And once again, do nit judge the book by its cover.
