Bad Things
Directed by Stewart Thorndike
When a group of friends escape the city to spend the weekend in an abandoned hotel, a pervading eerie energy begins to illuminate the cracks in their little family unit. Ruthie Nodd (Gayle Rankin) inherits the hotel from her grandmother and with bad childhood memories threatening to burst to the surface, Ruthie wants to sell the hotel and never return. But her partner Cal (Hari Nef) drags her there in the hopes of returning it to its former glory. They are joined by their amiable friend Maddie (Rad Pereira) and mysterious grifter Fran (Annabelle Dexter-Jones). As the friends dance, cook, flirt, and fight, they find themselves entwined in the hotel’s seductive embrace and start doing bad things to each other.
A weekend getaway for a few friends at a snowy resort becomes a psychological tailspin and bloody nightmare.
Cast: Gayle Rankin, Hari Nef, Annabelle Dexter-Jones, Rad Pereira

All of the characters were annoying. The movie was boring, start to finish. Several plot holes. Confusing snippets of seemingly important info that went nowhere. I try to find some aspect to appreciate in everything I watch, but this movie has given me nothing. I'd pass on it.
Story was not engaging, boring at a times.
Oof
Utter crap
Interesting elements and good cinematography, but overall this was a shining inspired film that failed to deliver on the fear, mystique or plot of its predecessor. The plot felt like being led down through a series of dead ends until reaching a vague and confusing let down.
