I enjoyed it somewhat. The fact there were no A list names in this 2nd one doesn't mean much to me. And, as long as the plot and storytelling is good; that's all that's needed. Of course a A name listing can help, but not always. Never having seen the original; I'd like to check it out. I think the main difference (except for the big names) would be the effects of flat lining.

What I was not expecting (though I should have a little bit) were the scary parts of the movie; as I found those little tidbits interesting.
