The first Vacancy was so much better.

I felt that the First Cut was unnecessary; Vacancy should have been left UNTOUCHED. Seriously, it would have had a great status as a stand-alone movie.

I don't think prequels or sequels or reboots or remakes affect an original movie. There are many examples in cinema that prove that.

I liked both, by the way.

I do like the first movie better but I still very much enjoyed the sequel

Very much agree. Of course when done right it's a great addition to the original. But when it's not, you just want to throw something at the people who thought this would be a good idea.

You're so right. It is mind boggling that this second effort can be so bad compared to the original.

If you love and support Michael Jackson 100%, copy & paste this into your signature. We love MJ!

The ingredients that go into making a successful film are hard to repeat without reproducing the same movie. Often they are just money spinners like jungle book 2. A way of extending the original.

It really would have. The first one is one of my favorite scary movies!
