Need some horror to add spice for your 2018 movie cravings? Insidious: The Last Key might be the best ingredient for you.
"Some people are afraid of special people," her mother says to little Elise Rainier, who has a special gift for communicating with the spirits that inhabit her tenement house in New Mexico in 1953. The action moves to California in 2010, when Elise is already a well-known parapsychologist who faces the most terrifying supernatural cases and is used to coexisting with the "beyond" until a new call takes her, along with her usual collaborators, to the place she lived during her childhood.
This is the starting point of Insidious: The Last Key, the fourth installment of the saga started in 2010 with the direction of the successful James Wan in his first two films and which placed Lin Shaye as the new face of terror.
The film works as a prequel in which the origins of Elise and her family are told, an engaging and well-exploited storyline during the first minutes (the basement scene) in the hands of director Adam Robitel, who plays in a sinister way with the reality and the parallel worlds, and does not dissimulate similar with Poltergeist.
From the beginning, childhood fears are addressed (Elise and her brother warn that someone else is in the room at bedtime), with the presence of an abusive father and a mother who allows violence towards their daughter, creating the ideal atmosphere for this type of proposals that connect the daily world with the spiritual and demonic.
What follows is one more suspenseful exercise that opens the door (not always with the correct key) to a parallel dimension recorded in video and between monstrous and elusive appearances that startle but do not bring novelty to the horror genre.
Leigh Whannell plays Specs, Elise's assistant (he is also the scriptwriter and responsible for the previous link), but the dramatic weight rests on Shaye, who manages to convey his intention to unravel his own past and achieve family recomposition, beyond the scares that you have to go through in this new story.
This is the weakest of all deliveries since it repeats situations, with the recourse of haze on the ground, ghosts, confinement, torture and two teenage nieces who also bring their own.
The choker spirits that tormented families took on a new meaning with the saga of Insidious, a film in which Elise Rainier became the hope of all those who had unpleasant experiences with specters, in addition to showing a surreal aesthetic in those worlds Parallels in which these characters entered, for these elements Elise became a banner and the franchise a success.
Once again, as a prequel, we present a fourth installment in which we will know the origin of Elise, as well as her gift, and will be presented to different members of her family. Everything will be unleashed after the protagonist receives a call in which they ask for his help, so he will go to a house that turns out to be the building where he lived with his family in his childhood and where his history as a psychic began to show what I was able to do, already in a teenage stage.
Elise and her two assistants face a series of events that they did not even imagine, this is the plot of a film that has the charm of this group of ghost hunters, who have empathy and comic visions when they work together; nevertheless, the premise and the form in which they appear are reiterative, and there are few scenes that achieve a clear aesthetic of suspense.
As the story progresses, and despite the fact that the heroine experiences fear for the first time, Elise's comeback fails to materialize her concept, the score is not very helpful either and it turns out to be a soulless delivery, in which one never manages to have the key to open a door in which terror can be found fully.
