Decent twist, good creeps, but not enough scares to make this a decent horror movie.

Trigger Warning Flashing Lights, Seizure
I love when a sequel uses a shot from the perspective of the previous movie. The new detective is looking at the case file and the picture of dead Judas and it's a screengrab from the last movie but there is no way the crime scene people would have gotten the same angle and lighting as the first movie so it’s so fake and comical but maybe I am the only one who notices these sorts of things and need to keep it to myself. ANYWAY, this movie takes place about a week after the first movie ends. Our new main character, June, is the daughter of one of Judas’ victims. She actually doesn't even know she adopted until one other the detectives tells her (wack). She confronts her adoptive mother but that same night her adoptive mother goes missing/dies with the “HE SHOWED ME THE WAY” calling card left behind.
June is dating a police officer so you would think they would be more helpful but it is quite the opposite. When her mother goes missing she is harassed by one of the law enforcement agents because she and her mother had gotten into a fight that day. What a dick! There is also some very mild paranormal activity going on in her house, doors are closing or opening and June is spooked! She immediately calls on Annie from the previous movie since she killed Judas so she can do anything. Annie calls back and is confused on what she can do to help but June is sure there is a presence in the house, sure enough Annie comes by and experiences such a presence that also lets them know about a mysterious pink room.
The girls split up to cover more ground but this leads to Annie getting knifed and killed. June finds the Pink Room which is a seedy place you can go take pictures of models in barely there clothing and one of the latest victims had worked there. Back at her house June is surprised by the harassing law enforcement guy who her boyfriend calls and claims is the real killer so she ties him up! The boyfriend arrives but something isn’t quite right, where is the backup? Oh, no backup is coming because the boyfriend is the real killer, he says that he has been led by Judas’ spirit and now we know that he was the one taking the pictures in the Pink Room and he was the one who stabbed Annie (sad!). A chase aided by ghosts and June bests her beau and wins the day. The movie ends on a cliffhanger like the killings are about to start again but if you just ignore that part the ending is much better.
June Abbott is a young woman that lives with her boyfriend, the police officer Meyer and works cleaning up crime scenes. June has dreadful visions at home of the deceased killer Judas and his victims and she draws her visions in her leisure time expecting to make a book. When her stepmother is cruelly murdered in a copycat crime, June believes that Judas must have…
I've recently learned that as a freelance stylist, I need to remain tight lipped. Seeing as I am prone to over sharing, have no filter, and consistently put my foot in my mouth, this is really hard for me to do. Especially about my work. I want to tell everyone all the time about what I'm doing because I'm so psyched to be doing it. I still cannot believe I get paid on a regular basis to style photographs, or help style photographs. But this industry, especially in Boston it seems, is competitive and most people are going to give you a congratulatory hug while calling up your client to steal the job.
One person who won't is my friend and fellow stylist Alexandra Ryan. She is always encouraging, helpful and trust worthy and she is someone who keeps me feeling excited and not bitter about my career path.
This past spring, she had the opportunity to style a fashion story for Stuff at Night magazine and she asked me along to assist. I helped her pull clothes and assisted on set and she even let me style a look.
The following post shows the other images from the shoot.
