Review of Insidious: The Last Key (2018) by Cwilliamhud — 06 Jan 2018

Overall Rating: 6/10.

Cons: The movie is not all that scary and it takes a while for the movie to pick up steam. Based on the premise it could have been a lot more terrifying.

Pros: Lin Shaye is once again amazing as Elise. Like the rest of the Insidious movies, the film is well-made-- what it lacks in scares it makes up for with effective storytelling and an emotional core. There is enough of an eerie atmosphere to make the few jump scares effective.

Consensus: Insidious: The Last Key lacks a lot of the thrills from the original, but this fourth entry maintains the chilling atmosphere and strong performances that made the series memorable.
