"It's not the house that is haunted. It's your son."

Insidious represents a collaboration of the Saw creators and the producers of Paranormal Activity, and the result is one of the strongest horror pictures in years. While all signs seemed to suggest that a clunker was imminent - Insidious is a PG-13 horror film about a possessed kid, after all - director James Wan has defied the od... read more

FINALLY other than "found footage" horror movies, a modern horror movie scared me. I am not a fan of the new horror because well they try to hard to scare you and what is in is Insidious can be found in all these modern horror films, but its done very very well in this. The images are freaky, I didn't jump but I gasp and my eyes widened at some of the images. The central story had a really cool co... read more

Elements of this movie were pretty awesome as they seemed to be a throwback to older horror movies from the 60's and 70's (the opening title credits in big red lettering), but then on the other hand, half the movie is just flat, dull and predictable. Half bad, half good, it's still a decent horror flick, but only for one or two times around, no more. I think the terrible bits would start to real... read more

Kyle Ellis posted a review 2 years ago

“It took me a while to watch 'Insidious' and its follow ups, with so much going on with my studies and commitments and with an ever growing watch and review list. Decided to finally watch them all, with the intent of reviewing the latest film as part of my quest to see as many 2018 films as possible and wanting to see how it compared with the previous outings. Also with an appreciation, if not quite undying love, for horror.

Having seen 'Insidious', it is not a horror classic, or at least to me it isn't, and it is understandable as to why people don't like it. Especially if over-familiarity, strangeness and silliness are not for you. Personally, 'Insidious' was, warts and all, worth the too-overdue wait, and it is not hard to see why it has appealed to others. There are a lot of m” read more
