PROMISE (BLOOD PLEDGE) IS BROKEN n SO R U READY FOR SOME HAUNTING ? Haha
Finally a Movie in this Franchise, where the Ghost's Death is due to Friendship. whereas in the other movies, Love is the reason behind the deaths!🤷🏻♀️
Movie Run Time is less, compared to other movies in this franchise n so PACING is RIGHT and GOOD here, without any content fillers, else would have been boring just like the first 3 movies 😂
Not a Psychological Horror, it's the Usual Horror Trope but with a lot of JUMP SCARES, horror lovers will love those 👌🏻😄
n a lot of Girl LOUD SCREAMS 🤦🏻♀️😂
****
Cinematography is different, the team had tried different lighting for different scenes, which is Good 👌🏻
But the Haunting Ghost scenes are completely black, almost invisible. Maybe they wanted to create a horror effect with the ghost in complete darkness n then give a jump scare to the viewer😂, unfortunately almost nothing is visible in those scenes.
I came to know that there is a ghost in such scenes, only when I hear a girl screaming loudly 😂😂
(On top of this, the print that I watched is of poor quality 🤦🏻♀️)
****
Direction is Good.
Linear Narration, so there is no confusion in the story or in the Editing (unlike the first 3 movies, where u'll go crazy confused or irritated with the Narration n editing 😂)
**** STORY:
Plot is Good n Interesting 👌🏻
4 High School Girls took a Blood Pledge to die one night but only one dies n so the Ghost takes Revenge on the other two n haunts the third one, who is her bestie.
First 1 hour of the movie, it's all about the Blame Game - blaming each other for the death of the gal.
The next 30 mins is when the true events that happened, unfold and the other gals' reasons for the pledge and their stories are shown.
This transition from the Blame Game to unfolding the actual reasons for the death of the gal n the other gals' stories, is VERY SMOOTH.
Well Written 👌🏻
Ghost to the three Girls: Our Promise (Blood pledge) is Broken n so be ready to my Haunting! 😂
Lesson learnt:
If U can't Fulfill Something, Don't PROMISE Anything!
And if U Promise Something, Don't Break it at any cost !! 🤷🏻♀️
**** JUST SOME THOUGHTS:
1) Ghost killings in a religious place / Church, huh ? 🤔
It's a Catholic School setting here.
And one gal is killed by the ghost in church, in the end.
How can a ghost enter a religious place? (like shown in other horror movies, in general) 😂🤷🏻♀️
2) Out of 4 girls who made the blood pledge in the beginning, 3 had very strong personal reasons to commit suicide but the gal (main lead) who turned into a ghost, doesn't have any strong motive or reason 🤷🏻♀️
So in the end, her death (ghost's) has no meaning, no strong reason, apart from doing so for a friend!? 😳🙄
Just like that!? 😲
I say, She maybe a True n a Great Friend but still, a Move Without Any Thought!🙄
Or Should we rule this thought out as a Silly teenagers' mindset ? 🤔
She should have convinced her friend not to think of suicide, instead of she sacrificing herself for friend without any strong reason other than doing so for friendship n just to be with her close buddy even in death 🤷🏻♀️
Again here we are dealing with teenagers' story, shouldn't expect much from the plot and the writers, I guess 😂🤷🏻♀️
But for another gal character (who is bothered about ranks and master key of school), she is ready to fake her death, manipulate another friend into suicide and murder another friend, even though being a teenager 🤷🏻♀️
Anyways, a GOOD HORROR WATCH ! 👌🏻

My Rating is 7.5 / 10
In this Franchise, Liked the First movie (my rating is 6.5) n this one Equally.
But gave an extra 1 rating here, just bcz of the Right Pacing here
n 1 rating less there, for wasted time n content filler there.
Story-wise, both are equally good and liked.
