INSIDIOUS : CHAPTER 2 (2013) ** Patrick Wilson, Rose Byrne, Ty Simpkins, Lin Shaye, Barbara Hershey, Steve Coulter, Leigh Whannell, Angus Sampson, Andrew Astor, Hank Harris, Jocelin Donahue, Lindsay Seim, Danielle Bisutti, Tom Fitzpatrick, Tyler Griffin, Garrett Ryan, Michael Beach. More or less of the same in this sequel/prequel to the supernatural chiller beginning where the last one literally ended with the haunted Lambert family still ensconced with terrible living nightmares of possession by a pesky poltergeist determined to take over their living souls. While filmmaking partners in crime James Wan and Leigh Whannell (who reprises his ghostbuster dork on screen) still upend the genre and embrace all its things-that-go-bump-in-the-night- don't-open-that-door ethos the end result is more of the same that listlessly eases into a possible third installment; be afraid!
