If you want to end up in the hospital, take a shot every time you see the word 'fall' in this post.
I have to say, not calling it Fall 2: Fall Harder feels like a huge missed opportunity. Despite that obvious miss from their marketing department, 2022's Fall was a pretty effective, if fairly basic, daylight horror zeroing in on that most basic of human instincts: the fear of falling. There was a surprising amount of tension in sticking two hobbyist climbers on top of a TV tower in the middle of nowhere. Any horror that attempts something more psychological than "rahhhh scary monster" gets automatic points from me.
Naturally, the sequel needs to raise the stakes, and for Fall 2: Deadpoint, that's all literal. Higher heights! Worse-maintained infrastructure! A bigger cast, including both leads from the previous movie returning! Personally, if I went through the first movie and survived, my feet would literally never leave the ground again. At a certain point, you're just tempting fate.
Fall 2: Deadpoint will be out… this fall. No, seriously. It hits theaters on September 2. Check the website if you don't believe me.
