LOS ANGELES () — Six and a half years after “Ready or Not” thrilled horror audiences, a sequel is “ready” to do it all over again.
Get “ready” for “Ready or Not 2: Here I Come.”
The sequel begins exactly where the original left off, with a bride surviving being hunted down by the devil-worshipping family she married into, killing them all in the process.
This time out, her little sister is forced to be part of a new game where they’ll have to outwit some powerful Satan-loving families, all out to kill them. It’s a game of winner take all, with the victors becoming one powerful family.
The movie is full of peril, blood (lots of blood), danger everywhere you look and plenty of physical action.
Star Samara Weaving admits to being “bumped around” during filming but the worst of it happened off the set.
“I was really injured before we started shooting,” said Weaver. “I had, like, basically broken my back so I couldn’t walk for two weeks and then, somehow…”
“Movie magic,” her movie little sister Kathryn Newton interjected.
“Yeah,” Weaving agreed. “The swelling on my spinal cord went down, like, two days before we started shooting…I was on steroids and pain killers. It was wild.”
“You should have seen the producers,” Newton said. “They were constantly sweating!”
Sarah Michelle Gellar and Elijah Wood are on Satan’s side here. While the movie gets gruesome and very violent, there’s more to the story.
“It’s comedy. It’s drama. It’s like a love story between two sisters. It’s a story about families, you know? It has it all in there. And if you like the blood, we have plenty of that for you as well,” Gellar said.
Wood added: “It’s a ride, you know? It’s like a game that gets set forth and then it’s watching that game play out and it’s a game of survival and it’s really fun with really absurd, ridiculous characters running around trying to kill people.”
“Ready or Not 2: Here I Come” is rated R and opens this weekend.
