Best movie of this year hands down!

How sad is this?

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The Lamberts believe that they have defeated the spirits that have haunted their family, but they soon discover that evil is not beaten so easily. Insidious: Chapter 2 is the sequel to the 2010 Insidious and once again reunites Director James Wan alongside Patrick Wilson and Rose Byrne. This movie or this sequel in general was not better than the original but Wan definitely made a movie just as good as that first one. The storyline once again is very interesting and there's some nice twists and turns along the way especially regarding Wilson's character, the new evil does show up here and there and is pretty creepy and the film does have some clear references to The Shining at times. (10/10)

The ending of the first Insidious will make any viewer NEED to immediately watch this sequel. I've never seen a more intense cliffhanger movie ending. I found Insidious: Chapter 2 to be a great addition to the first movie, although I think the first one was slightly better as a movie. Insidious: Chapter 2 takes place directly after the first, and continues with part of the plots conflict. The movie does take a similar haunting theme, although it is slightly different as the first. I found this movie more engaging as the first, because it makes you think a lot about the unknown pieces of information that would reveal import clues to the mystery part of the movie. I would say the first movie was scarier, but this movie was slightly jumpier. (I might be wrong) But I liked this movie, and if you've watched the first movie, you gotta watch this. If you're new to the Insidious series, it's great, start with the first movie. I would totally recommend this movie (& the Insidious series) to any fan of horror. I also find these movies incredible movies in general. I rate Insidious: Chapter 2 8/10.

Insidious:Chapter 2 is the horror sequel to the almighty horror Insidious. The film picks up after Insidious and The Lamberts are still being haunted by evil spirits from The Further and with Elise gone,they must like defend for themselves. This film,I used to think was a boring,crappy sequel but after watching it again,I've realised that its so good and so cool! James Wan was amazing directing this,it obviously was not as good as Insidious but only by like,a wincy,tincy,shincey bit. The film has a great script and delivers like A LOT of scares. Danielle Bisutti was amazing as Michelle Crane,very scary and intense. Insidious:Chapter 2 is an awesome horror sequel that is also one of my fav horrors!!!

Tobe Hooper made the often-cited scariest movie ever made, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. For twelve years, fans demanded more but how could Hooper top what was claimed perfection? A balls to the wall parody of the original was the only way to find new insanity.Horror tag team Wan and Whannell struck the same success, almost 100 times profit on their budget. Insidious 2 was a no-brainer and although they don't go for broke like Hooper, this sequel possesses the formula of the original with entirely bizarre new life. Constantly teasing those similar moments of cleverness found in the first Saw, Insidious 2 addresses the first and instills new meaning behind some of the scares.Much like the first, there is an even more apparent mix of warm familiarity and strange originality. Working with classic conventions of haunted houses and possessions, the Insidious films have an old school feeling. Not just reminiscent of the similar Poltergeist but even further back to Méliès and Wiene surreal theatrics of silent horrors. Even if you aren't part of the masses who jump at every piercing stinger of the dilapidated score, there are plenty of kooky visuals that make exploring the afterlife fun.As for the story, this is where the sequel falls short of the initial success in less is more. If you were critical on that third act turn to more Beetlejuice-esque antics, then this one delivers that in spades. With multiple stories all interweaving through time and worlds, the intense engagement of the first is diminished noticeably. While unabashedly fun, it becomes harder to relate to the continued hauntings of the Lamberts.Patrick Wilson is delightfully hammy, genuinely performing as if he were a spirit excited to torment people once again in the living world. Unfortunately, his standout delivery leaves the always wonderful Rose Byrne and the rest of the cast looking clueless as to his not-so- secret condition.The elegant subtitle of Chapter 2 perfectly encapsulates the film. Very much a straight-forward continuation of the first Insidious, but building on fresh and entertaining elements only introduced late into Chapter 1.
