Jacob's Ladder 2: Climb It Change

A man's struggle with insanity as he refuses to accept scientific evidence pointing toward worldwide calamity. With a ladder pun in the title.

A prequel could have been made. Not so sure about sequel considering the ending.

From someone who saw the remake, it wasn’t necessarily bad, but not good either. The movie only keeps a few ideas from the original, but everything else including the story is different. The twist isn’t even the same and it’s not even a good twist, not because you see it coming, but because it’s just such a dumb twist.

It’s not really a scary movie either. It’s kinda frustrating because if this had been it’s own thing it might have been ok and even Michael Ealy who plays Jacob said it shouldn’t have even been called Jacob’s ladder.

Also apparently the director of this one was not even the original director for the remake. Apparently at some point the directors had switched and this may not have even been the original idea for the remake.
