If the first was a hit, this one double's it

Rating: 8/10 (8 January 2014)

Horror films are really difficult I think to provide a sequel towards them because audiences are not like expecting a sequel to many of films of the horror genre because to me they seem like one off sagas and a sequel usually expands the original story too much. Well Insidious was great to me and I really enjoyed how different it was. When I first heard about the sequel I certainly didn't want it to happen. After watching the trailer I felt a bit more optimistic about it but not something I would go out of my way to watch to be honest.
Later on it got and the reviews and ratings came in and 90% of them where positive which shocked me so I thought I will watch it. So when I did I was so shocked on how it was made. It was fantastic and not a lot of horror movies scared me but this has a terrifying sense to it which James Wan does very well with his films. The style is very similar to the first film such as dramatic music in the background to make the jump scenes even worse. The camera work is the same with the bizarre shots used and the lighting specifics.
The second film left my mouth open and I was unsure what actually happened at the very end and this film explains it all. So much detail went into it and it truly explained the origin of the demon that was inside Josh and it blew my mind away from just having the certain ideas in the first film, and then to explain all of them in the second installment. Absolute brilliant. If you are a big horror fan I would recommend this because its truly what horror is about these days and stuff like this will keep the horror genre what it used to be.
