Review of Orphan: First Kill (2022) by Lother — 04 Oct 2022
If you liked the first one, you will NOT like this. The actor playing Esther can't pass off as anything but an adult with her face, they should have recast her. Even my gf who didn't watch the first one said "that's an adult".
The story becomes needlessly convoluted and contrived during the second act. Instead of making a Mr. Brookes style movie, which I would have liked to see, they make this ridiculous attempt to make Esther seem just a bit less psycho and justified.
Either you go all in with your story or you don't make it. This is another example of prequels we did not need. 99.99% of prequels should never have been made.
