Insidious: Blu Ray Review
Insidious
Rating: M
Released by Warner Home Video
With a
box blaring from the makers of Paranormal Activity and SAW, you should be able
to guess what audience Insidious is aiming for.
Shortly after moving into a new home, Josh and Renai (Patrick Wilson
and Rose Byrne) find their lives turned upside down when their son Dalton falls
into a coma. Things get worse when Renai starts seeing horrific visions and
ghostly disturbances around the house - so the pair decide to move home.
Only what's haunting them appears to follow them to their new
place&.
Spooky, creepy and a little
unsettling, Insidious starts off very well - but the second half of the film
can't sustain the tension and unease which has been created at the beginning.
And that's where it's a real shame as all involved do a great job - and it's
genuinely frightening in places with some shocking moments which will have you
grabbing the seat in fear.
Sadly, the premise and
the reveal of what's going on just can't be taken too seriously and so Insidious
falls squarely into great idea, but disappointing territory.
