What Rotten Tomatoes Reviews Are Saying About Insidious: The Red Door
By Rachel Davis
Unfortunately for "Insidious" fans, the hits from Rotten Tomatoes kept coming early on. Casey Chong of Fiction Horizon wrote, "Insidious: Chapter 2 is a tepid supernatural-horror disappointment." Peter Gray of the AU Review mocked the series' conventions and said, "Open the door, don't open the door...we fail to care and wish the other dimensional demon would put us all out of our misery." And Jim Schembri's review concluded with a plaintive "Enough Already."
The ongoing horror franchise splits its focus between the life story of demonologist Elise Rainier (Lin Shaye) and the travails of the Lambert family, who must cope with the aftereffects of moving into a home haunted by demonic forces and evil ghosts. "Insidious: The Red Door" returns the series' focus back to the Lambert family, following dad Josh (Patrick Wilson) and son Dalton (Ty Simpkins) to the East Coast 10 years after the events of "Insidious: Part 2." Dalton is set to go to college but the institution appears to encourage the Lamberts' old ghosts to resurface. Fans will find out who will win the battle for the family's souls soon enough.
