Insidious Chapter 3
Review
This latest installment of the Insidious franchise attempts
to be the darkest wherein audience gets emotionally and mentally drawn to the
story that deals with the other world otherwise dubbed as The Further by the
creators of this movie.
Set years way back prior to the haunting of Lambert family,
Insidious Chapter 3 highlights the paranormal and psychic powers of Elise (Lin
Shaye). One day a teenage girl Quinn Brenner
comes knocking on Elise’s door seeking help in reaching out to her dead mom. At
this point Elise is retiring from giving psychic readings and paranormal advice
she decides to accommodate the young lady’s request. Sensing that Quinn is in
imminent danger, Elise send her back home and ask her not to contact her dead
mother ever again.
Quinn goes back home to her usual routine but a horrific
accident leaves her to recover at home. Living in an old apartment building
with her dad Sean and young brother Alex, Sean tries to keep things together as
they deal with the evil entity that places his daughter Quinn in danger.
With supernatural occurrences going on at Brenner’s home Sean
realizes that he is not capable of dealing with an unknown dark entity. He has
no other choice but to contact Elise and seek help from so called paranormal
experts.
Elise, the only clairvoyant that can genuinely deal with
entities from The Further, find herself struggling to face off the darkest
being- a demonic entity that has a big appetite for living human souls.
Production wise the movie deals with the strange reality that
our world co-exist with another strange world inhabited by entities and
spirits. The dark entities are finding a way to return or crossover from one
world to another that will involve taking a human soul. This new Insidious
chapter will take viewers deeper into the unknown world creating an impact to
the ordinary world we all live in.
Extras: Got a chance to try out the Google cardboard box viewer which you too can experience. Just download the INSIDIOUS VR App with your smartphone. This app will take you to the world "further" beyond the living. Its totally cool.
