Rated R for horror violence and terror throughout, and for language. 

 

Sounds like the kind of unrelenting horror experience audiences love.

 

No wonder it took so long for there to be a sequel. The filmmakers apparently wanted to take the time to get this sequel right.

That's probably right...

Vertigo films are releasing this in the UK on the 9th Of May.

This is out in 4 weeks, seems like there is zero buzz.

It's a sequel to an only modest hit that came out a decade ago. Hardly seems like a surprise to me.

Its because 1) yes the film was a hit for Rogue and ended it up being their biggest at that time before they became relativity. 2) but however, the film has now met a lukewarm reception with people complaining about the ending, and it’s cited as now mediocre. 

 

This a sequel at best should’ve been a straight to video flick.

the original was SO overrated

 

Hush or You're next are much better home invasion movies

I went ahead and made a club for this film based on the fact that it is the second film from the distributor Aviron; Strangers: Prey at Night over Kidnap. That would mean that it'd cross $30M total in the domestic landscape. And because of low horror and March competition, I think it just might. I mean, the film still has to be good...

[TombRaider]

Comparing it to a film that was on streaming platforms for weeks?

Hush is a nice little gem that should have been a hit.

It could’ve been a hit for Netflix, that’s the only place it was released.

I hated the first one, it was perhaps the dumbest movie I've ever seen, and that is not hyperbole.  But I am willing to give this one a chance.  Looks scary enough.

i wish netflix released view counts of their movies and shows

[Boxofficerules]

Is this being screened for critics? When can we expect reviews?

 

[Boxofficerules]

I’d say this is dead, lucky to make $10 million this weekend. No marketing or buzz at all. If this had come out closer to the first it probably would have done well, why they wait so long?

I've seen a decent account of marketing. I'm probably going to wait until DVD myself though

[Boxofficerules]

Seems to be getting positive reviews on reddit.

[Krissykins]

Sad that it doesn’t come out til May here. 

 

Especially when WWE had a big tie-in on Raw and they showed it here in the U.K. with this Fridays American release date lol.
