impressive
insidious was a pg13 horror movie that i was more interested in watching with my friends than actually paying much mind to. i figured it would be a cheap tricks flick that was cut clean enough to allow teens to buy tickets to a horror movie. I was very impressed though once the lights went down. it held its own and established a name for itself in my mind before movie was over. it also respectfully paying homage to many classic horror films from poltergeist, exorcist, hitchcock films, to even more modern ones like paranormal activity. towards the end i think it did become a tad predictable and certain elements should have been left more to the imagination which would have kept the suspense level higher, but it still managed to keep me on edge till even after the credits were done rolling. at least this movie was worth criticizing though. if you like horror films then i highly recommend giving this a try especially now when a good scare is hard to come by.
