The Last Exorcism 2 Tagline

The Last Exorcism has a sequel (they cheat by calling it The Last Exorcism Part II, which kind of gets them out of the trouble they made for themselves with the name of the first movie, but that’s cheating, so I’m referring to it by what it ought to be called: The Last Exorcism 2), and seeing as how it’s a movie about exorcism that takes place after The Last Exorcism, the ads/trailers really ought to clear up this discrepancy with a tagline like: “The Last Exorcism 2: We thought the last exorcism was the last exorcism, but as it turns out, it was only one of the last exorcisms, and it was just the last exorcism before this next exorcism, which is either the last, or one of the last, exorcism(s)!” Or maybe: “The Last Exorcism was just the last exorcism for the last exorcist, and now this next last exorcism, The Last Exorcism 2, is the last exorcism for this next exorcist!” Or perhaps: “You thought the last exorcism in The Last Exorcism was the last exorcism, but it wasn’t really the last exorcism…” (<I like this last one the best.)
