Review of Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013) by Cholo F — 30 Jul 2014
A slightly better than average horror movie sequel, though there is not an incredibly high bar. I still don't really understand the concept of The Further is, a sort of hell for bad people and a purgatory for others?
Anyway, there are some really good unexpected jumpscares here, especially the one when the baby disappears. But troublingly, the movie features quite a number of cheap scares too, which bog down the film.
The backstory, which is backbone of the story, removes the suspense of what goes "bump in the night" really only undermines the strength of the first movie.
As a whole, the movie makes little sense, but is a fun albeit forgettable ride.
