The Bad Seed Returns

10 points for Ella Dixon great acting, she looks like a diamond in the rough. She brings out the most of her character, creating some mystery with her body expression.

But the plot of the movie is too simple, too predictive and there is 0 suspense or something to make you think after the end.

The characters in general seem naive, their decisions and acts in front of tragic facts are very unreal.

Frankly, the thing I really liked is Ella Dixon's performance, that manages to give her character a bit of depth, since the plot doesn't give us much.

I enjoyed watching the movie, but I don't think it's one I'll watch again after a while.

Completely waste movie. If you like to watch it, suggesting you to see some movie reviews not the entire movie. Same plot as first. Expected she will get the punishment finally. But totally waste of watching. Still the girl kills everyone and escape from everything. I think whoever it is not good to watch such boring films.

Same plot as first. Waste of time. The writers want to make money by making a big series of this film by extending the climax. Not worth watching at all. First time feeling a movie such a piece of trash.

Completely trash. Waste movie. Maybe they have thought they can make us interesting by making the bad person be alive always. But when you seethe first part, u will get irritated that she is not dead yet. Still same thing happened in the second movie. You get more and more irritated. Not worth of watching such a trash.

Do not waste your time with watching this movie... I never wrote reviews here, but now I must, because I'm looking on that as on my obligation for the other people... Just pass this awful movie. Bad script, bad direction, very bad acting and terrible music about psychopath teenage girl who wanna to execute everyone in her life, without any feeling's, but she's are very stupid and script are on the level of elementary school... On the other hand, without any further goals or motives for that what this girl doing, like some kind of fun, but with very bad acting and thus isn't thriller or horror, neither drama, this is a stupid teenage comedy, by my opinion... From me ZERO of 10, but zero isn't possible, because this movie doesn't deserve a better rating score here...

No one can say that the original Bad Seed (1956) is not a riveting psychological horror/thriller. Watching a mother slowly realize that she is raising a straight up psychopath is nothing short of horrific. Great film.

The Bad Seed (2018) is a watered down version of the classic with the twist of a father learning these truths about his daughter. It's an average watch because it just didn't bring anything fresh enough to give it a je ne sais quoi to make it very appealing. Also, its hard to measure up this father/nefarious daughter film with Orphan (2009) being similar but setting a much higher standard.

I was interested to see where they would take the storyline with an older McKenna (even though I would've preferred seeing an older version of Rhoda from the '56 film). True to deranged form, McKenna doesn't fail to be an uncomfortable person to watch.

She's still a shrewd egotist and masterful at hiding her darker side. We watch a few of her schemes turn into close calls and missed opportunities but the movie falls flat in terms of payoff. However, I wouldn't be surprised if there is a third film on the horizon.

It was 'meh'. I didn't love it and I didn't hate it. It was just a middle of the week, night on the couch watch for me. If they make a 3rd film, I'll watch it just to satisfy a slim curiosity.

Secret psychopath Emma Grossman (Mckenna Grace) is now living with her aunt Angela's family. Kat is the new girl at her high school who comes from her old life. Kat suspects Emma for all the deaths. Of course, Emma has not changed and cannot change.

Mckenna Grace is almost an A-lister at this point, or Lifetime wouldn't continue this franchise. I don't think that she should continue this thing anyways. This reminds me of Macaulay Culkin doing The Good Son. It is always tough to have a villain as the lead character who has anti-rooting interest. I'm wondering if we should be following Kat instead.
