        A decent enough movie I suppose, and an interesting sequel, but pales in comparison to the first.

        Not as good as the first one, but still pretty creepy.

        Insidious Chapter 2 is quite scary, however it is scary in the amount of headache-inducing bangs and popping out faces that the film uses. The actors work fine, but the film almost devalues the scary original with some rather irritating backstory reveals. Still, if simple old-fashioned scares are what you're looking for, there might be something worthwhile here. It isn't 38% bad, that's for sure. Rating: 47

        A disappointing sequel. The scares seem more contrived this time and although there are a few jumps it all gets really silly towards the end.
