INSIDIOUS

Hi Everyone! Love to see you again.

Now, here we are, talking about the newest movie I've watched.

This time, it's about a horror movie. You like horror? I hope you do.

Because this's the real horror that could drive me to scream like hell! It's so so so creepy!

Let me say it again. It's so so so so so so C.R.E.E.P.Y (!)

I tell you the truth! You don't believe me?

Alright. You may think so now. But I bet you'll agree with me ASAP after you watch it.

INSIDIOUS

"It's not a house. It's haunted."

PLOT

A mysterious old woman (Philip Friedman) stands near an ominously lit back window. She smiles and then the screen flashes to black.

A couple, Renai and Josh Lambert (Rose Byrne and Patrick Wilson), and their three kids have recently moved into a new house. One morning, Renai begins looking through a family photo album. Her son, Dalton (Ty Simpkins), joins her. He asks why there are no pictures of Josh when he was a child, to which Renai reasons that he has always been camera shy. After Dalton tells Renai he is scared of his new room, she calms him down and stacks a few books on a nearby shelf. Later, after finding those books lying on the floor, Renai tells Dalton to put them back after he looks at them, but Dalton claims that he didn't touch them. Sometime later, as Dalton is playing, he hears noises in the attic and goes to investigate. He steps on an old ladder to turn on the light when it breaks, causing Dalton to fall. He starts screaming after looking at a shadowy corner. Renai and Josh help him, then tuck him into bed, confident he only took a minor fall and scared himself. The next day Josh goes to wake Dalton, but he does not move. They rush him to the hospital where the doctors say he is in an unexplained coma. Three months later, still in a coma, they bring Dalton home to care for him there.

Over the next few days, terrifying and disturbing paranormal events begin to occur. One night, after arriving home late, Josh is confronted by Renai about the mysterious happenings in the house, which she thinks is haunted. Although Josh doesn't believe her, Renai shows him a bloody sharp-nailed handprint on Dalton's bedsheets. Shortly afterwards, Renai is almost attacked by a mysterious man in the bedroom, which triggers the house alarm. Josh rushes to Renai, but he finds no one else in the room. Since Josh cannot ignore the supernatural happenings in the house, he agrees with Renai to move. The new house proves fruitless for the family, as increasingly violent and supernatural events begin to happen again. Josh's mother, Lorraine(Barbara Hershey), believing what Renai says about the hauntings, contacts a friend of hers, Elise Reiner (Lin Shaye), who deals in paranormal activity. Later, the family, Elise and her team, go into Dalton's room. There, she sees something on the ceiling and describes it to one of her men, who draws it. After a long moment, Renai walks towards the man and snatches the sketch he was drawing. It turns out to be a dark, demonic figure with a red face.

Elise explains to Renai and Josh that Dalton has the ability to astral project. This means that he can wander around the parallel spirit world, which she calls "the further", and interact with the lost souls of the dead and demons. He does this in his sleep, which he thinks are simply dreams. She also reveals that his astral projection has attracted a very powerful red-faced demon, which has drawn Dalton into "the further" and separated him from his body in the hopes that he can take it over for his evil purposes. His human body is still in the real world, but his spiritual body is inside "the further". Elise and Lorraine reveal to the couple that Josh also can astral project, and that he was terrorized by an old, terrifying spirit during his childhood. Josh's mother then shows them forgotten pictures from Josh's childhood. In each picture, a shadowy old woman lurks ever closer behind Josh. The spirit is shown to be the scary old woman from the beginning of the film. Elise suggests that Josh should use his ability of astral projection to enter "the further" and free Dalton's soul. Josh agrees, and Elise instructs Josh on how to enter "the further", which he does successfully. Josh finds Dalton and leads him out of the disturbing and strange room, narrowly escaping the red-faced demon. Just before Josh himself escapes, he confronts the old woman. He repeatedly yells that he is unafraid of her. The old woman retreats and appears to have been scared off. Josh awakens, so does Dalton.

Later, Dalton, Renai, and Lorraine are in the kitchen, eating. In the other room, Josh converses with Elise when she notices something strange about him. She grabs a camera from her bag and snaps a picture of him. Suddenly, Josh goes into a rage and strangles Elise. Renai hears the noise and runs into the room to find Elise dead. She calls out to Josh, but receives no answer. She picks up the camera that Elise used from the floor and screams. She sees, not a picture of Josh, but the same, eerie old woman instead. Just then, Josh assures Renai that he's right there and grabs her shoulder. She turns around, terrified, gasps, and the screen cuts to black, leaving Renai, Josh, Dalton, and Lorraine's fate unknown.

COMMENT

I screamed a lot along the movie and closed my eyes with hands but, I didn't lose my focus of the movie. This film was too creepy to make me lost my focus! With a 'blank' ending that will make you feel curious, Two thumbs up for this movie.  You should watch it, guys!
