Insidious: Chapter 2

SOOOO much better than the first one. apparently all insidious needed to do was get rid of that ugly ass blue tint and make renai stop annoying me 😭 and finding out that josh has basically been haunted since CHILDHOOD??? oh this family was doomed before dalton was even a thought. josh getting possessed as a kid and carrying that shit into adulthood explains why all of this keeps happening to him and dalton. generational supernatural bullshit. love it. elise died in the first movie and somehow remained the most useful person in the second. absolutely no faults. no criticism. a queen in life AND death 👑 carl and his little dice were great. everybody else is dealing with demons and this man is over here rolling letters like supernatural boggle and somehow getting results. respected. “quesadilla” 😭😭😭 but my FAVORITE thing was how the movie kept going back into scenes from the first one and showing what was actually happening from the perspective of the second. finding out that things we already watched had another explanation happening at the SAME TIME??? THAT’S how you make a sequel. it made the first movie better retroactively. no annoying renai. no fucking blue filter. more elise despite the minor inconvenience of her being dead. carl and his dice. josh’s childhood trauma ruining everybody’s lives decades later. QUESADILLA. no hesitation of five stars. this is what the first one should’ve been except this ending was meh with elise entering the other house.
