596. Insidious: Chapter 3 (2015)

*The Warlock opens the door to his lair. He’s wearing a Omni Consumer Products t-shirt, blue jeans, white sneakers and Gargoyle shades. He’s holding a glass of Barq’s Root Beer*

W: Welcome to my lair…welcome I don’t think so, but enter. Enter my lair if you dare. I’m your host The Warlock.

*Warlock flicks his wrist and fire appears before walking inside*

W: Keeping on going with the Insidious series, tonight Neyzor Blades and I will be catching INSIDIOUS: CHAPTER 3.

*Neyzor Bladez is in the recliner wearing standard attire*

N: Oh no, no more jumpscares.

W: Yes, more jumpscares….only one problem. For some reason James Wan decided he’d had enough of the Insidious series and bowed out of this one. Leigh Whannell decided to go it alone as writer and director for the third part of the series. The other new factor is its a prequel, set before the Lambert family saga. This movie centers around Elise who has just lost her husband as she gets called into duty to investigate a haunted child. Dermot Mulroney of Young Guns is the father of the young girl and he’s at his wits end on what to do.

*Warlock takes his seat in the middle of the couch*

W: So, can Leigh Whannell capture the magic of the first two movies without James Wan, can the new actors do as well as the previous two movies and can the story be good? I only saw this once when it first came out and its been 6 years since then, so I’m almost as blind as I was then. So grab your popcorn, grab your drink and grab your woman because its time for INSIDIOUS: CHAPTER 3.
