Leave your thoughts about Insidious: The Last Key.
| Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)Linda CookCharacter development makes the 'Insidious' franchise engaging. |
| Consequence of SoundRandall ColburnRobitel and Whannel are still too bound to the franchise here to make something truly original, but The Last Key will make you grip your armrest, squint your eyes, and prepare for the worst. Sometimes, that’s enough. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderThis barely recommended effort doesn't offer much hope for the series' creative energy. |
| Boston HeraldJames VerniereShaye is great. But how many times will dopes pay to see the same film? |
| GeekBob ChipmanLeans harder than the others have on the central theme of hauntings as a metaphor for generational trauma and psychic scarring - though it doesn't lose sight of being the "fun" haunted house series opposite the Conjuring movies. |
| Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatyAside from one gag in particular, the scares lack any real mechanical knack. The one thing the otherwise forgettable film has going for it is Shaye, who over the course of the Insidious quadrilogy has miraculously created a real flesh-and-blood character with Elise. |
| Chicago Daily HeraldDann GireHere, new director Adam Robitel and series writer/star Leigh Whannel fine-tune the art of the jump-scare by strategically executing the jolts microseconds before or after we expect them. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekMay satisfy the most undemanding fans of the franchise by fleshing out Elise Rainier's backstory, but on its own it's just a mediocre haunted house movie...more tedious than frightening. |
| The Tracking BoardEdward DouglasWhile not horrible, [it] feels like such a wasted opportunity to end on a high note rather than merely petering away. |
