Scary, if you've never seen a horror movie before.

Rating: 2/10 (23 December 2011)

In all honesty, I thought this movie was appallingly bad. So bad, I laughed the whole way through! Insidious was a joke of a movie, the first 20 - 30 minutes were pretty interesting, and I thought that it would be a great movie. But unfortunately, I was wrong.
Throughout the whole film, they've taken little parts from different movies like Poltergeist and the Exorcist, which sounds like it'd be pretty enjoyable, but somehow, teamed with silly little demons and music that's just way too dramatic for its own good, they found a way to make you want to jab your eyes out with a ballpoint pen.
The acting was just awful, and too dramatic - at times, I felt like I was watching a lame horror special of The Bold And The Beautiful. The only actor who was remotely good was the little boy, and that's because he was in a coma for the majority of the time and didn't talk much. The demons and ghosts were laughable - oh wow, a demon that looks like it was trying on some of its mum's makeup - QUELLE HORREUR!
The only part that even remotely scared me in the movie was when the weird demon family all sync in this massive grin - and that was still lame. The entire movie was just way too predictable, and just too over the top.
The only thing I don't regret about watching this film is that thankfully, I didn't have to pay for it. At the beginning, I won't deny it, this movie had potential - but the creators of it just tried so hard to make it something it wasn't.
The only reason I'm rating it 2/10, is because I got a few laughs out of it.
