I'm more perturbed by having what was most likely the most original and creepy flick in a very long time being dragged down into the "let's make a sequel quickly and try t make some more money as long as we have their attention" factor. A franchise usually is the starting point of total sell out and I will always quote 'Halloween' as the prototype. Great movie brought down by a myriad of inferior sequels, marketing, etc. Why can't great art just be left alone without all the extra dollars and "Part 2: The Electric Bugaloo" attached to it in a year's time ? ugh ! The biggest problem is most time it's the studio's that do it and not the filmmaker themselves. That crap always lessens an original's impact as far as I'm concerned.
