InsidiousTheRedDoor Review by alysewax: Horror Sequel Does Nothing New
is set nine years after Insidious: Chapter 2. In that time, the kids have grown up, the Lamberts have gotten a divorce, and Josh’s mother, Lorraine, has died. We open on her funeral. Josh has a strained relationship with his kids, especially Dalton , who starts art school at the beginning of the film. Dalton and Josh have no memory of their time in The Further, or even that anything mystical happened. Dalton just accepts that he was in a coma and Josh has had a “fuzzy brain” since then.
Insidious: The Red Door offers nothing new to the franchise. Neither Josh nor Dalton have any new powers, nor do they see anything new or face any new challenges. It’s basically the same story as the first two Insidious movies, except that instead of not knowing what is going on because it is new, they don’t know what is going on because they don’t remember.
Overall, the scariest scene was the one where Josh gets an MRI, as seen in all the trailers. That scene had the clanging noise of the MRI plus the claustrophobia of the machine itself to make for a good fright. Other than that, there were plenty of ghosts/ghouls/monsters, but none of them seemed very scary.
