Halloween movie: Insidious Chapter 2


You know that feeling when you want to go out and do something with your boyfriend, some friends, your cat or even your guinea pig, but you have no idea where to go. Well, I'm an expert when it comes to not knowing what to do. So yesterday me and my boyfriend were discussing activities (No, I don't want to go take a walk, walks are boring. No, I don't want to go to a restaurant, I don't have any money left. No, I don't wanna go ice skating, it's October, you don't go ice skating in October! etc.) When suddenly some friends called us asking if we'd go with them to the cinema on a double date. A movie's always fun, we figured, so we met each other at the cinema. Only thing we forgot to think about is which movie we'd see. Little detail… Unfortunately for us, there was only one movie none of us refused to see, so with only me having seen chapter one, we went to see Insidious Chapter Two.


A scene from Insidious one.
Chapter one is about a little boy called Dalton who has a gift: when he sleeps, he can travel to the world of ghosts and dark entities. One day, Dalton doesn't wake up and strange things start happening around the house. Not a single doctor seems to know how to wake up Dalton, so his parents call in the help of Elise, a paranormal expert. She finds out that another entity has come to this world and sends Dalton's father into the ghost world to find his son, but when the father and son come back into the real world, Elise is strangled. No one knows who or what did it.


Chapter two tells the story after and before Chapter one. In the beginning you can see that Dalton's father had the same talent when he was a kid. There was a ghost following him everywhere, trying to be him, but Elise helped him and made him forget his talent. After he saved his son, things start getting even more weird than before, so Dalton's grandmother calls in the help of an old friend of Elise and she discovers something horrible about Dalton's father.

To be honest, I was a bit disappointed after the movie. It wasn't very bad, but it wasn't good either. I found it way to cliché.
Insidious Chapter 2 gets 6/10
