Sobrenatural: A Porta Vermelha

2.5 out of 5 stars.

Insidious The Red Door is a pretty bad supernatural horror film that is starting to become dead end for the franchise. The concept is creepy and scary about a person astral projecting into the realm the further were lost souls and demonic entity can find you.

The plot is a conclusion to the Lambert family after seeing them in the second movie in the series. Is it really a necessary sequel? Not really. Plot follows 9 years later. Dalton is going to college while his father is still feeling hazy after they were hypnotized to forget the events on the second film. Until they both discover they can astral project again and something sinister comes there way.

The film is more of a story about father and son trying to resolve with each others mystery conflict. The movie has less scares and thrills. Which is very few in between. Some cheap jump scares that does not do the trick with this film.

The cast is okay in the film but the script is a bit dull with there characters.

Overall, the fifth film bites the dust in the further and it might as well be skipped.

The guy sitting next to me covered his ears for literally the entire movie. I don't blame him, as there were a frustrating amount of obnoxious, tasteless jump scares.

But an equal amount of the scares were EXTREMELY effective, involving clearly thoughtful placement of disturbing imagery and refreshing patience. Patrick Wilson's extensive experience in horror films gave him insight on how to craft atmosphere. I just wish he would have done it more often.

The story does find good reasons to exist-to continue this long-delayed franchise. It explores themes of memory that feel like a natural continuation of the Lambert's story. And it culminates in an emotionally satisfying ending.

It's just that the script too often falls upon stilted, unnatural dialogue and is paced without a sense of progression, and it makes this movie a lot less effective and memorable than it could have been with the many good ideas on display.

It was very slow paced, and dragged on, the storyline was a little dull and not like the others, I thought the last one wasn't as great, but it was much better than this one, I was so excited to have the main cast back, and to see another installment, I was hoping it would dive deeper into the further, and see many more evil characters, but it was not meant to be, it was the same old rehashing from previous movies, the whole collage thing put me off the most, and making it upto date modern gen z stuff was so boring, I could have done without that, it built slowly and didn't land, there was like 5 jump scares, and that was about it, I'd like to say something different, and I'm not moaning to just moan, but it wasn't good and my advice, don't waste your time.

This entry and hopefully conclusion to the franchise was not a masterpiece, but also wasn't bad either. It is a typical horror film and one that made me jump a few times which is something movies don't seem to make me do anymore. It is no where near as good in story as the first two films, but is better than 3 and 4 by a long shot. I don't think this movie had the same tone as the first two which was hard to get used to, but wasn't bad either. Unlike other reviews, I enjoyed the first 2/3s of the film more than the ending that seemed sort of rushed and random. It is a must see for fans of the franchise, but for a casual movie goer this might not be your thing.

I couldn't help but believe that the horror component of the film fell short of expectations as it neared its finale. It's impossible to say whether this occurred as a result of my yearlong exposure to a large number of horror films or if there was a problem with the writing. I wished there had been more genuinely horrific and spine-chilling moments because the ending felt a little hurried. The emotional depth between the characters was another component I hoped had been further addressed in the movie.

The movie did, however, have certain advantages. An unsettling mood was created by the cinematography and visual effects, which added to the overall suspense. The tension was effectively heightened by the use of lighting and sound design, increasing the audience's anticipation during crucial scenes.
