'The Last Exorcism 2' Official Synopsis

We've got the official synopsis for the secretive sequel, The Last Exorcism 2. We have initially reported about the film when it first sprung over the American Film Market last week.

In the sequel, Ashley Bell returns as Nell Sweetzer, the possessed young girl that dragged a faux exorcism crew to an unspeakable horror, who months after the first film's event, moves to a new home. The movie boasts of a twist that has never been on an exorcism film before. The pic, directed and written by Ed-Gass Donnelly who did Small Town Murder Songs, has an undisclosed slate for release. Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench director-writer Damien Chazelle has helped with writing the script.

Its predecessor, grossed approximately $41 million on domestic US theaters, adding $26 million on ticket sales overseas sum up to an approximately $67 million worldwide gross. The Last Exorcism was a commercial and critical success.

Here's the official synopsis:

“Eli Roth & Strike Entertainment bring us an even more terrifying and bigger scale sequel to The Last Exorcism that grossed $70 million worldwide. It looks like Nell Sweetzer’s last exorcism was not foolproof. She is back… and so are her demons. 

Continuing where the first film left off, teenage Nell Sweetzer is found dirty and terrified in the woods having just escaped a demon ritual in which a cult helped her give birth to a demon baby. Confused and scared, Nell is examined by doctors but she doesn’t remember much about the previous few months except that as a result of everything, her family is now dead. She is moved into Davreaux – a girls’ halfway house in New Orleans, where she will try to put her life back together with the help of the therapist, Frank Merle. She even begins to date a boy named Chris and starts a job at a local hotel. 

But something doesn’t feel right to Nell. She is being sought after by the demon who possessed her in the first Last Exorcism. It wants Nell, but in a different way than before…”
