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.

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.

Rated: 3.5/5

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

This is the most beautiful thing I have ever watched in my entire life. I hate everyone who has made a bad review on this beautiful life-changing movie. All of you need to go to hell. I hate you. This movie cured my depression and anxiety. I feel free. I have truly never watched a better movie than Insidious: The Last Key. I cannot believe it's real. This movie stopped World War Fifteen. I cannot even express how happy it makes me to own this gorgeous DVD. True love. I'm going to marry it some day. Back to the point anybody who has ever said a singular bad thing about this movie will die and burn in hell after I torture them for hours on end

“Fear comes home.” Lin Shaye is *chefs kiss*. Loved seeing Elise’s backstory even though it was sad. I can’t wait to see the next one. 5/5 stars.

The film, firstly, is best watched and enjoyed when one knows the facts/story behind the first 2 films. Yes, this movie may not be explicitly scary as one may presume, but it is scary in the sense that it is built up on prior information from the first 2 films again. The actors and the director did a superb job. Absolutely enjoyed the cinematography and ambiance the director went for A well worth it watch
