A Ghost House Masterpiece

Rating: 8/10 (16 September 2013)

Walking into the cinema late at night on Friday the 13th to watch the sequel to James Wan's terrifying haunted house movie Insidious, I was wondering if this movie will live up to the expectation of the first and It certainly did in crap your pants fashion.
The first insidious is one of my favourite haunted house movies about a family who are haunted by unexplained spirits after their eldest son Dalton (Ty Simpkins) went into some kind of coma which doctors cannot explain. But the parents Renai (Rose Bryne) and Josh (Patrick Wilson) are told by a median who has connections to a spiritual world that it's not the house that's haunted, it's their son and his spirit is lost in a spiritual world and they have to find a way to get him back.
Insidious: Chapter 2 was made in a different style with twists and turns that the audience will not be expecting.
The story of the sequel is the haunted Lambert family move in with Josh's mother at her house where 30 years ago a young Josh was experiencing the same kind of disturbances and hauntings. With new characters and twists in the story, Insidious: Chapter 2 introduces new evil spirits, old ones and a disturbing twist which left me and most of the audience shaking after the movie finished.
Directed by James Wan, who has already made himself an iconic horror movie director with recent success' including the Saw series, Dead Silence and his newest and probably best horror movie The Conjuring, has done it again in this brilliant ghost house masterpiece after the success of the first instalment.
On the opening weekend Insidious: Chapter 2 smashed the box office with $20 million, and after the weekend finished, it saw a budget of $41 million record at the box office. Which just proves that it is the ultimate ghost house movie.
With passionate acting, plenty of jump scares, plenty of lasting scares and a new twist in the story which makes this the ultimate ghost house masterpiece.
