8/10
A quality film!
6 July 2023
"Insidious: The Red Door" marks Patrick Wilson's directorial debut and the result is solid but not a masterpiece. The script revolves around the Lambert family and the past that comes back for them, a large part of the film presents supernatural events that are a delight, in addition to creating scenes with good suspense and a lot of tension, the negative is the ending that becomes abrupt and without emotion. The cast gives good performances, highlighting the scream queen Lin Shaye whose minutes on the screen are scarce but her appearance is perfect in acting. The cinematography does a good job, especially with chiaroscuro. The editing is dizzying and accentuates the suspense. The design of The Lipstick-Face Demon is very effective and looks especially gloomy in this fifth part of the saga. A formidable movie but with an abrupt final battle that turns out to be a bit disappointing, but overall it's a quality movie.
