Brilliant parapsychologist Elise Rainier receives a disturbing phone call from a man who claims that his house is haunted. Even more disturbing is the address -- 413 Apple Tree Lane in Five Keys, N.M. -- the home where Elise grew up as a child. Accompanied by her two investigative partners, Rainier travels to Five Keys to confront and destroy her greatest fear -- the demon that she accidentally set free years earlier.

Critics Consensus

Insidious: The Last Key offers franchise star Lin Shaye another welcome opportunity to take the lead, but her efforts aren't enough to rescue this uninspired sequel.

Ben Sachs

Chicago Reader

Director Adam Robitel creates a tone unlike anything his predecessors generated; mournful yet warm, the movie engenders sympathy for the characters even as the action turns somber or gruesome.

Kermode & Mayo's Film Review

Very quickly, it becomes completely mechanical.

Overall this is a predictable horror movie that relies on jump scares rather than mental darkness. Insidious may have run its course.

Rated: 2/5

You can expect the fun scares these films have provided over the last eight years, but after four films, it seems they are struggling to follow through in the last act. Providing a finale that is undeserving for a respected franchise.

...a surprisingly enthralling capper to a series that was on the verge of running out of steam.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas de terror são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom.

I wouldn't call this a horror. No jump scares at all. It looked like a harry Potter movie.

DELIVRE NOUS DU MAL Pourquoi on n'est pas né sous la même étoile? Pourquoi je suis à l'agonie? Pourquoi je m'emmerde? Pourquoi le venin de l'échec? Pourquoi la porte est verrouillée? Pourquoi je suis un spectateur du désespoir? Pourquoi ils ont perdu la clé? Dernier recours, le pied de biche.

Insidious the last key is a great film and it's nice Elise gets her own movie. The last key is still as scary as the others and it maintains the tension.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

The worst of the franchise, Insidious: The Last Key is still entertaining and fun, but it does drag & telegraphs too many of its scares. Still, Lin Shaye is great & the effects are creepy as hell.
