From seeing the trailer they done a decent enough job of it. It's not flawless but it's hard to make a grown adult look like a child. Especially when it's a low budget direct-to-streaming Horror film.

She had all her own in the first film to really look like a child (the prosthesis, makeups, bandage for tits) though. I haven't seen the trailer, but if it's not about that she's being adopted, then I think it kinda makes a sense that she will look a bit older in the film.

I watched this last night and I found it somewhat jarring. They give you long shots of what is clearly a child, then it cuts to her face and she's a 30 year old looking woman, but the height of the camera and the actress compared to the other actors is disconcerting, you're expecting her to be at the same height, but she's not. My takeaway from all this was, who in this film would believe this woman is a 9 year old kid?

If you can get on board with this, then the film itself was quite good, I liked the twist and how it played out. I can forgive a few glaring issues to do with geography and logistics etc, but I liked it.
