Parce qu'elle a l'impression que sa mère défunte cherche à entrer en contact avec elle, la jeune Quinn Brenner se tourne vers Elise, un médium qui possède un véritable don mais refuse de l'utiliser depuis la tragédie qu'elle a vécue autrefois. Lorsque Quinn est attaquée par une entité malveillante, Sean, le père de la jeune fille, supplie Elise de les aider. Secondée par deux parapsychologues, Tucker et Specs, Elise accepte alors de tenter d'entrer en contact avec les morts. Forcée de s'aventurer dans les tréfonds de l'au-delà pour protéger Quinn, Elise va affronter le pire ennemi qu'elle ait jamais rencontré : un démon dévoreur d'âmes... (Sony Pictures Releasing France)

Vu dans le cadre du « Challenge Tour – La chasse aux films », défi numéro 10 : un film qui te fait peur ou dont tu as peur. Ce troisième opus est plus que réussi. Je me suis ch*é dessus par moments, ce qui est un gage de qualité pour un film d’horreur. Le scénario n’est pas ce qu’il y a de plus séduisant dans ce film, mais dans le genre épouvante, je ne fais pas la fine bouche. Si j’ai des frissons à cinq reprises, que je fais des cauchemars ou que je commence à avoir peur du noir, je suis satisfait et je considère que le but a été atteint. Le meilleur film de la série, cela dit, est pour moi le deuxième.

Les tentations intenses de la fête de la part de celui qui les connaît le mieux. Blumhouse est aux films d'horreur, ce que Pixar est aux films d'animation. Cependant, le final est faible et l'intrigue, y compris chaque scène individuelle, n'est qu'une répétition de choses passées. À cause de cela, c'est le plus faible des trois.

I must admit that I had expected a loose but very similar sequel to the first two parts of Insidious. But it never occurred to me that I might be getting a film that knowingly pokes fun of all those monsters, demons and nightmares. It’s as if the movie took the Insidious name only to make fun of it and it got away with it without any problems. On the other hand, I was saying to myself whether I should cry about those illogical plot holes or whether I should simply enjoy scene after scene. You see once two guys with the punk image of ghostbusters burst into the teen horror halfway through, the movie gains a whole new unique dimension. On top of that, the technical side of the film isn’t actually too bad. All in all, this is a film that you can’t take seriously and that’s how you have to approach it.

Solidly made, but this time unfortunately it’s an utterly uninteresting safe bet. The first one laid down the rules and introduced us to the Further and the second one expanded the story in an interesting way, but the third instalment just follows the path set by the trend in ghost/exorcism movies and doesn’t have anything that I didn’t already see in the previous two episodes, and better. For Whannell’s standards, the script this time is woefully unoriginal and unsurprising. Lin Shaye is still great, but she alone is not enough for a higher rating, especially if she lacks the support of the other stars, who unfortunately deliver weak performances. The demon is also great, but we don’t get to know much about it. The film is chock full of jump-scares – unfortunately, I must add, because they always erase any signs of an atmosphere. And the worst is that they go nowhere, the demon shows up, says Boo! and then leaves. Throughout the film I never felt that the heroes were in any sort of danger, that the creators will really let the demon kill them. A barking dog doesn’t bite. That’s probably the biggest complaint for a horror movie.

Gone is the ridiculous devil from the first one, gone is the overwrought plot from the second one and we have a solid (the weakest in terms of story = Who cares, it´s not a book bitches?) haunted house film, which this year will be rivaled only by Crimson Peak. The film has really a lot of jump scares, the last time I saw so many was in Drag me To Hell and I appreciate when someone goes full throttle (in exploitation films I want to see a lot of violence, in action films a lot of action, here again scares). The monotonous atmosphere reminiscent of a conservatory rehearsal is something nerds like, but for normal decent people the ned atmosphere is as annoying as the government. The film may feel cheaper than its predecessors, and the string accompaniment is not as thunderous as in The Conjuring, but the goosebumps, the chills down the back and the jumping out of your seat was inevitable (just as you can tell a good song by the goosebumps, so can you tell a horror film). Towards the end, I even shed a few tears with emotion, so the five star was decided. The biggest highlight is the passage through the Dalava, where the dead creatures are truly frightening – I'd love to see a horror film set only in this underworld. The oxygen masked villain is unbeatable, finally no pale girl with long black hair. Compared to the monotonous It Follows, this is a clear winner and the number 1 for the time being. 85%
