Insidious Red Door Movie Rating: 6/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Story: Dalton Lambert attends an art college where he occasionally sees frightening hallucinations and out-of-body experiences that lead to a mysterious red door. When ghosts from the past return and haunt the family, Dalton and his father Josh return to a dark realm called the Father to get rid of the demons forever. Will they succeed?
Review: Patrick Wilson will make his directorial debut with the direct sequel to 2013's Insidious: Chapter Two. In the meantime, fans of his franchise have enjoyed his two prequels, Insidious: Chapter 3 and Insidious: The Last Key. The fifth installment in the horror series features a strong pre-credits sequence. At the funeral of Josh Lambert's (Patrick Wilson) mother, eerie ghosts smolder in the background, creating a dark and terrifying atmosphere. Another close-up of Josh's young son Dalton's (Ty Simpkins) sketches and drawings of dark outlines and flying pencil shavings adds to the punch. But the terror soon wears off, and the terror only dizzies to the end. The film begins with Josh and Dalton's strained relationship while Josh attends art college. There his teacher, Professor Al-Maghan (Hayam Abbas), encourages his students to delve deep into their own emotions in order to bring out his art. Dalton pulls the red door and begins having frightening visions and experiences related to a traumatic event at the age of ten when he was in a coma for a year. The red door in question is the gateway to a astral dark realm called the Further, where tortured souls live and are ruled by a demon (Joseph Bishara). The rest of the story is about the father-son duo returning to this realm to end their nightmare. Patrick Wilson exhibits prowess as an actor and director, as the movie is peppered with many spine-chilling sequences—a frat party that Dalton attends with his friend Chris Wilslow (Sinclair Daniel) where he encounters the ghost of a dead student, his astral projection episodes, Josh stuck inside the MRI scanner machine when he wants to dig deeper into reasons behind his brain fog. Scott Teem’s screenplay, however, is lacking as it fails to tie up the loose threads eventually. The story had immense potential, with Josh finally discovering why his father abandoned the family, his ex-wife Renai (Rose Byrne), and his mother keeping secrets from him, Dalton delving deep into his subconscious through his art, etc., but it does not translate effectively. The portrayal of the Red Devil is lacking, and Dalton and Chris' friendship is also superficial. Ty Simpkins does a good job of playing the sullen, eager young art student, but over time, his Dalton starts to feel a little one-dimensional. Some would have liked to see more of Rose Byrne. Sinclair Daniel, who plays the brave roommate, is a little picky. This movie has a promising beginning. The occasional glow and some serious jump scares are worth noting. But all in all, it was a lukewarm ending, far too hasty to end the Lamberts' nightmare.
