If they make a sequal all the hype and "wonder" will be gone. Most people will probably be like "I've seen this before.. -_- ", especially once they realize this is about the same storyline just with different people who were at the party.
I agree. Because there wasnt much info leaked, people didnt know what to expect and everyone was wondering what the monster looked like. While theres a few of us that truly liked the movie, the reality is a lot of people didnt get it and didnt like the shaky camera plus the fact that everyone died. With a second movie people will know what to expect and will probably skip it.
