That's really odd, because as much as I follow movies, I still had to look up "Ancient Evil" to see what "Ancient Evil 2" was a sequel to. So I don't know what the distributor hoped to gain from name recognition of the title. If anything, I'd think it would turn viewers away, as in, "Hey, this looks cool. Oh, it's a sequel, and I didn't see the first Ancient Evil."

Hopefully that's not how it turns out. Good luck with it.
