I didn't much like the first one when I first saw it. But just before watching this 2nd Phase, I gave it another try as I mostly forget about it...how she got infected & what happened at the end etc. And surprisingly, this time around I liked it a lot. The make-up effects were good & eerie. The lead, Samantha wasn't a likable character and that actually kinda helps to see her condition getting worse & worse every day. Though the first film didn't give details about the origin of the disease but as an introductory story for a series, I think it was alright & quite decently handled.
Phase 2 comes with few details about the 'disease', focused mostly on Samantha's admirer Riley who's going through with the same shitty infections like Samantha but this time it's spreading fast & there may be an epidemic coming. Still as a whole, I found nothing much better than the original but definitely worth a watch.
