Insidious : La Dernière Clé

I must say the first 2 were gold that's for sure and others had pretty good elements mashed in well. An interesting view on Elises's backstory furthering showing how good of an actress Lin Shaye is she carries everything quite well! The acting and writing is much more bearable in The Last Key compared to Chapter 3 I'm grateful for that, unfortunate this one has the lowest ratings to me its a satisfying sequel to the series of Insidious. The voices are great, the thrill is well done, more seriousness than previous one was lacking this one does well, and the directing is great; sure the humor is one of the most added aspects I like it and glad to be caught on these thrill rides.

I never look things up, or remember anything from the previous films apart from the fact that I liked them, so I didn't realize it was a prequel till the end. It's set in 2010, but it's been a while since I saw the first 3 Insidious movies so I just thought more time had passed than I thought.

I think this one's less spooky than the other Insidious movies, and the two dudes were pretty annoying. Some things make a lot more sense if they were meant to be 10 years younger than the actors actually are.

I did enjoy the story, but now that I see Insidious 5 is en route, it is very clear that this is set up for that.

My scores:

Horror/Mystery/Thriller: 7.5 Movie Overall: 6.0



LIKES:

Characters Story Creep Factor

Dislikes: Dropped plot points Anticlimactic Ending Missing Trailer scenes

Summary: A fourth installment usually means a low-quality movie that is strictly for merchandising and money making. However, Insidious 4, while not the best of the series, keeps the tradition of horror storytelling alive by focusing on plot and character development rather than just plain old scares that the genre is famous for. Elise's backstory is fascinating, and helps connect some elements that were once shrouded in the mists of the unknown, and is presented nicely as past is integrated with present. In addition, while not the scariest, the group does a fantastic job utilizing shadows, make-up, and sound editing to establish a creep factor that will keep you on edge. All of this come together to make a nice mystery/horror that is worthy of the series. Yet, the fourth installment still has its flaws primarily in the scare tactics, (e.g. jump scare tactics) have gotten old despite their attempts to tune it up. In addition, the plot had some dropped and rushed elements, alongside an anticlimactic wrap up, that took away from the story overall. In addition, there are a lot of scenes from the trailers missing, some of which really could have added on to the story, or allowed for more creepy makeup to be used. Overall, this movie is a solid entry in the series and answers some of those lingering questions we have had since the whole prequel component was started. Yet, it does establish new questions and drops on the finish that could have really made the story exponentially better. And while the scare tactics are getting somewhat stale, Insidious is at least managing to keep things creepy and relevant to a point instead of just a super scare fest that this genre is famous for. It's worth a trip to the theater for the franchise fans, however, you can wait this out for the home cinema to save yourselves money.

Movie not so scary, but in some place you will jump out of your chair because of the sound effect, story quite confusing and completely varies from the previous versions, as usual not lengthy movie so acceptable to spend some time for entertainment portion of your daily life, DON'T MISS THE FIRST SCENE which is far good than other scenes.. Worth watch in BIG screen, so watch soon.

Insidious: The Last Key is a very nice horror film. We are given a better insight of Lin Shaye's character as well as some really good moments in the film overall. Lyn Shaye is the best element, not only in this installment but in this whole franchise and her performance in The Last Key is fantastic. The jumpscares worked for me and the story seemed fine. I love how everything ties up to the original Insidious story at the end. All in all ths is a horror film which I really really enjoyed, being a fan of the series.Its a good horror film, it has its faults but Lin Shaye is the star of this movie.
