I am reviewing the horror film Insidious Chapter 2 which is fairly good. I think the first film in this series was excellent and they would have been better off not making a sequel. This film almost puts you off the first and looks as though it was done in a hurry and was planned at the last moment. The plot for those who have seen the first film is the lady medium is lost in the spirit world and the police suspect the father of killing her. Unknown to the others the father's spirit is still in the spirit world having been sent there by the medium to retrieve his son and his body is inhabited by an evil spirit. The son's spirit is back in his body but he can still visit the spirit world in his dreams which is how all this trouble started in the first place. There was an evil spirit trying to take over the son's body that left him in what appeared to be a coma. Anyway the spirit in the dad is the Black Bride, a notorious serial killer who was a man who dressed as a black bride prior to commiting his crimes. There is 3 men who assisted the medium in the earlier film who are trying to sort out this mess in this film. The father is played by Patrick Wilson who starred in Hard Candy among other films. They do achieve some tension in him trying to harm his son but otherwise this film falls flat on its face. I think it's a shame because some of the team on this film worked on Sinister & the first 2 Paranormal Activity films which were quite good. I found myself looking at my watch more than at the screen with this film which I couldn't wait to end. It does have a happy ending but there is a tacked on bit that makes a sequel likely.
