Review
Fans of the original Insidious (especially fans of Lin Shaye’s character, Elise) should find this movie very enjoyable to watch. If you’re new to the series, then it’s a strong movie on its own right. The “Insidious” franchise has gone through some lengths to rejuvenate old-fashioned spook. The first movie was a surprise hit, giving the audience back their interests in horror movies to come. The second one worked sporadically with critics but still kept audiences wanting for more.
Honestly speaking, I jumped out of my chair a few times and even more satisfying, I experienced a few prolonged bouts of sustained horror. I sat there in total fear at what was transpiring right in front of me which I absolutely loved.
The movie is definitely well made; Whannell has already proved himself to be a good writer, and an OK actor, but now he shows he has more than decent directing skills, as well. The film is also well acted, and it has a decent amount of shocks and thrills too.
