Looking at the movie Annabel from the plot latitude, there will be countless injuries. From the richness of the plot and the motivation setting of the protagonist, it is much worse than evocation.
Among them, the most important one is hard to explain: why did the leading girl do this? What's her motive for being haunted?
The motives of many characters are too "dramatic", which makes people worry about their IQ.
In Evocation 2, the protagonist can't be haunted by evil spirits, but he can't move, and the evil spirits harass him again and again. This logic makes sense.
Annabel 2 is completely upside down. It is understandable that a disabled girl is driven by curiosity when she enters a haunted room for the first time. However, after the haunted room, it is not normal logic for the disabled girl and her little friend to go in again and again.
In addition, the protagonists of Annabel 2 are almost all children, and adult actors are only assistants, which makes it difficult for children to hold up a representative work. Although the little girl has worked hard, it still seems that the plot is very weak.
However, Annabel's main story is simple, but it belongs to the prequel of evocation, and it is also the first chapter of the whole evocation (horror) universe, so the film expounds how Annabel was born and how the doll went to evil step by step.
