When the credits rolled on Ready or Not, nobody expected there to be any unfinished business between Grace MacCaullay (Samara Weaving) and her deceased, devil-worshipping in-laws. Our bloody bride survived an intense game of hide and seek, which nearly culminated in her sacrifice to Satan himself, aka “Mr. Le Bail,” but instead saw the destruction of the entire Le Domas family. After they all literally explode, Grace’s troubles seem to dissipate with them. But that changes with the existence of Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, which picks up literally right where its predecessor left off.
A new game with double the players might feel like overkill for such a self-contained story, and it doesn’t help that Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett — the directors known as Radio Silence — almost didn’t return for the sequel. Still, there was always more of this world to explore, especially when it came to the secret council of families who struck similar deals with Mr. Le Bail.
