In this lofty goal, Elise is aided by ostensibly lovable tech-savvy goofuses Tucker ( Angus Sampson) and Specs (series co-creator, and "The Last Key" screenwriter Leigh Whannell). That said: when we last saw broody psychic Elise ( Lin Shaye), she was more convinced than ever that she must use her ability to communicate with ghosts to help unfortunate home-owners who are too stupid to cut bait, and move into less supernaturally busy environs. That's not a good or a bad thing, it's just something you should accept now that you're presumably committed to watch the third sequel in a cheapo horror series. If you must know what this one is about, you should be forewarned that plot, themes, and characters barely matter in the " Insidious" films. But the best rationalization for seeing "The Last Key" with another person is being able to look at another soul, and realizing you're not losing it when you think: wait, this one is almost good. No, you may think you should see "The Last Key" with a friend because being sociable is a good excuse for poor life choices. And the makers of "The Last Key" do pull enough punches that you'll actually wish the rest of the movie weren't as dependent on jump scares to establish terror.
Yes, I too know the Siren call of a new horror film on opening night.īut really, whatever you do, don't watch "The Last Key" without the emotional support of a buddy who can confirm that you're not just imagining this: these movies are still getting incrementally better, a trend that began with "Insidious: Chapter 2." And "The Last Key" does feel like it's 70-minutes dripping wet (even if it's a shocking 103 minutes?). Don't go alone if you must see the tepid, but mostly adequate ghost story "Insidious: The Last Key." Really, don't even bother to see this third sequel in theaters unless you really, really want to.
