Searchlight Pictures’ horror-comedy Ready or Not 2: Here I Come is available now on Movies Anywhere. Directed by Radio Silence—the filmmaking duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett—Ready or Not 2 leans into tension and anticipation of the unknown, deliberately keeping audiences off balance and never quite sure where the story is headed next.
Searchlight Pictures’ Ready or Not 2: Here I Come is now available on digital platforms including Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango, followed by a Blu-ray and DVD release June 16.
Film Synopsis
This action‑packed, darkly comedic horror sequel expands the Ready or Not mythology with another lethal game of hide‑and‑seek. Still reeling from her brutal escape from the Le Domas family, Grace is thrust into an even more unhinged bloodbath when she becomes prey once again – this time hunted alongside her estranged sister by four rival families, each ruthlessly vying for absolute power and control of the High Seat of the Council.
In Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, Samara Weaving returns as “Grace” alongside an all‑star cast including Kathryn Newton, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Shawn Hatosy, Nestor Carbonell, with David Cronenberg, and Elijah Wood.

My thoughts:
The sequel was a fun movie with lots of action. Grace comes back delivering a fun and energetic performance while facing a new deadly game. The film keeps the franchise’s mix of horror, satire, and action. It is an entertaining sequel with memorable characters and creative twists. It is a fun horror-comedy that delivers powerful punches. If you like the first one, you will like this one as well!
I give Ready or Not 2 3.5/5 stars.
