Insidious The Nightmare That Woke Up Modern Horror
A scathing critique dissecting James Wan's horror, oscillating between effective scares and scripts that get lost in the darkness.
Claqueta Ácida acid rating
"Leigh Whannell lives in a state of cinematic Russian roulette. Capable of touching absolute magnetism with a 7.2, only to crash into 5.5 trainwrecks that leave us wondering if they read the script before cashing the check. Undeniable talent, questionable compass." — Claqueta Ácida Editorial Staff (Odín Lagbert)

A scathing critique dissecting James Wan's horror, oscillating between effective scares and scripts that get lost in the darkness.
Leigh Whannell directs a sequel that tries to be more than just a Blumhouse product, but the result is a ghost thriller stuck halfway between art and the cash register.
