A great psychological horror film!

Rating: 7/10 (24 November 2014)

A young family moves into a new home and while their son Dalton is exploring the attic, he has a mysterious accident and falls into a coma. Renai and Josh Lambert must then fight to keep malevolent spirits from trapping Dalton in an unknown realm known as 'The Further'. Insidious is definitely one of the creepiest/ eeriest supernatural horror/ thrillers I've seen. The whole idea of the unknown, lucid dreamland aka 'The Further', is unsettling because it's not too hard to imagine it existing. It may even be real! Insidious has mastered the balance of jump scares and suspense to be able to mark this movie as a psychological horror. Not only is this movie creepy as hell, but it's also an in-depth look at what could be happening when we're asleep. I'd say the closest counterpart to Insidious would be "The Conjuring meets Inception".
