Format:DVD
This can be considered a sequel only on the most tenuous grounds. None of the characters remain and the nature of the phenomena are entirely different. Nonetheless, this is an enjoyable, light horror movie.
The excellent Nathan Fillion is convincing in the lead role but gets little help from a rather tired script that takes no pains to avoid the various cliches of the genre. Evidently, the number 666 is a numerological reference to a phrase in ancient greek. Really? Our hero gets to find this and other clues laid out implausibly for him in a study, in the way that happens in these films but would be considered preposterous in real life.
There are few surprises here: most of the plot 'revelations' are signalled from miles away. But if you like your horror light and quaintly old-fashioned, this could be for you.

White Noise 2, is of course a sequel to the original, however this time its with different characters,
This follow up focuse's on a man (amazingly played by nathan fillion) who after losing his wife and son in a murder in a cafe, he finds himself wishing for his life to end, so he trys to commit suicide, and is brought back, but around certain people he see's a light that seems to hang over them like a invisible blanket. He soon realises the people with this light are dying, so he decides to save the people, but of course this courses other problems
this is a well structured, well acted little shocker that actually made me jump more than i have in years
the characters are likeable, the script has a few new things to say (including a nice in-joke about nathan fillion in serenity)
well directed, and i would reccommend this little gem
its not going to change the world, but its a good film that doesnt try to hard
i give this a 4/5 for all the above and its nice to see a horror movie that doesnt need to gore us in the process and rely on story insted!

Wow - this was really good! It's miles better than the first one which I would give 1 star to - it's not really a sequel and doesn't bare much relation to the first one (definitely a good thing!!). The lead actor, Nathan Fillion is easy to warm to - I've seen him in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Serenity and I think he's very well cast in this film. This isn't one of those films that will scare you so much that you have to watch it with the light on but it's definitely worth your time - it had me hooked within the first few minutes!

Lock those piano wheels!
This movie is a somewhat confused, mish-mash of ideas that plays like a cross between The Sixth Sense and Final Destination. Read more

White lighter
I saw this film by chance. I actually prefer this film to the first one as the cast did not look wooden in this one. Read more
