Insidious: Chapter 2

After seeing the first Insidious, I nearly peed my pants because as I proceeded to go to my night shift after an 11pm showing of the movie, I thought I saw the creepy woman in the black gown everywhere I looked.  The first Insidious movie was as deliciously creepy as a bowl of curry-rice is delicious to my tummy, and I still hail it as one of the greatest Horror films of all time.  If there is anything this sequel taught me about the prequel, is that it was far more confusing than I thought it was.  I thought I understood the story of Insidious: Chapter 1, but when I finished chapter 2 I thought to myself, “yeah!  Now that makes sense”, or “say what?! I didn’t eat corn!”  The second statement had nothing to do with the movie, except that I had an interesting experience related to crohns, due to the dinner that I had partaken of.  I don’t want to give any of the story away, but let me just say that this film does NOT take place a couple years after the first film, and instead it picks up right where the cliff hanger ending of the first movie left off, and to quote the film Heavyweights, “this pleases me.”  My end opinion of this movie is that it’s twice as good as the first chapter because the story is more complete and so downright creepy that you feel director James Wan is giving you a tour of what his vision of Hell is like.
