Insidious 3

Insidious 3 gets the green light

Coming fresh of the back of a monster opening weekend in which Insidious: Chapter 2 banked a whopping $41.1 million, FilmDistrict, EOne and Sony are already developing a third film.

However, while Leigh Whannell is reportedly hard at work on a new script, it sounds as though director James Wan will not be along for the ride, after announcing that he plans to move away from the genre.

“I'm going to go on record and say I am finished with the horror genre,” revealed Wan in an interview with Moviefone. “The Conjuring and Insidious 2 are my two last scary movies.”

Whether or not Wan can be convinced by an incredible script/lucrative offer remains to be seen.

What happened? Its the fundies! God-dammit! I was just starting to like horror again :(

As long as Whannell is involved, i'm sure it will still be good

I found Insidious a tad too tame, given the premise, but Pt. 2 really brought forth some necessary plottage regarding the Further while maintaining the horror throughout. Whannell recently stated that he has simplified the plot of Pt. 3 to recapture the vibe of Pt. 1. I suppose that means focusing on a familial ordeal outside the Further, which leans the whole too far toward drama for my tastes. That said, I am interested to see how Whannell fares in the director's chair.

I'm really looking forward to his "Cooties" later this year.

Think it's gonna be a blast.

If I'm not mistaken, Cooties also has a first-time director. It reminds me of another recent movie, the name of which escapes me.

I'll watch it but I did enjoy the 2nd more than the 1st one.

So we see more The-Red-Face-Demon-Dude? (Also known as Darth Maul and Lipstick-demon).
(SPOILERS) Elise's face in the end of the part 2 [not really a big spoiler] but it implicated and felt like she saw an "old friend". (END OF SPOILERS)



I don't see directors change as a bad idea. I am really looking forward to this after liking the first and second one.
I bet that there is a new family, who has these "paranormal experiences" and they need desperately help.
Then our heroes Specs and Tucker come, to solve the cases.
(Seriously, these guys were one of the best characters in this series. And Elise was awesome too.)

Maybe we learn more about the dark and mysterious, The Further?
Or we just hear the same story again, nobody knows, right now.

I really enjoyed the first one, the second I found really boring... so I'm not that excited for a new one. It's a pity that James Wan is quitting horror - he had potential.

Sorry, did not even like the first one, and did not even watch the second one, and not going to watch this one if it is released. They suck, and James Wan is why I don't watch PG-13 horror any more.
