It's only partially faithful to the first, it does great at building tension and anticipation. But after a certain point in the film, it goes a bit too far with the cheese. The other two monsters were really unecessary in my opinion. I know that technically all of them were the nun in disguise, but it's still... Lame. The Enfield story is spooky enough, but I suppose they needed an excuse to introduce the nun for future movies. Found the Crooked Man also a bit too much, seeing him full on made us laugh rather than scared. If they had to have the nun in the films, it would have been far more interesting to maintain some mystery about her, so not having her on screen so much and certainly not in good lighting with the comical mouth thing she had going on. The old man was great but had too much of the spotlight stolen.
Still a decent horror flick, just not as scary as the first one.
