    • Trivia
      (at around 25 mins) When Specs and Tucker analyze the footage of young Josh, the "Panasonic" VCR logo has been worn away in places so that it reads "Panic" instead.
    • Goofs
      (at around 42 mins) Exterior shots of the abandoned hospital clearly show it has 5 floors. Later when in a flashback Lorraine enters the lift with Parker already present. Lorraine presses the button for the ground floor. The camera then clearly shows the lift services 10 floors, despite the hospital only having 5.

    Not as good as the first one but still a good Horror movie overall.
    Insidious Chapter 2.

    I really liked Insidious Chapter 1, it was a really good horror movie after a long time in my opinion. When I heard they were making a second part (no surprise there as part 1 ending suggested it clearly), I had some doubts because sequels of Horror movies ALWAYS suck. I'm glad this didn't follow the tradition.

    The story follows the previous part and all the cast is back. IT was good and answered some of the questions that were raised in the previous part. The horror stuff wasn't that much. Same goes for the atmosphere and tension. I really liked the fact that the two detectives were also back and they had some funny scenes too. Would be awesome if those two can get a whole movie.

    It wasn't as good as part 1 but still was a good horror movie. James wan sure is a savior of Horror movies in these times.

    7/10.
