Sneak peek coming tomorrow!

First official trailer!

Looks better than Chapter 2!

I just have my worries when it's not James Wan in the directors seat this time.
But then again, it could actually benefit the 3rd installment, if the former actor/writer knows what he's doing that is.

How far can you go
 

Hi,
Insidious 3, then four, five, six...? how far can you go with a franchise, I thought the first one was good, the second so-so, as with all things, it has a shelf life, with each new instalment you have to keep stretching the bounds of probability, and find something new to shock your audience, the difficulty is, it has all been done before, how many times can you use an invisible entity, a hideous red faced demon, toys that come to life, (you get my drift), and this is the problem I have with modern horror movies, they rely too much on visual scares, rather than being more subtle, Hitchcock was the master at suspense horror, Psycho proves the point, how many people believe you actually see Janet Leigh get murdered in the shower, you don't, what you see is her screaming at an unseen intruder, then the classic piercing score plays, and then we see blood gurgling down the drain, and yet, such was the brilliance of the directing, such was the brilliance of building the suspense, we actually believe we see her get murdered, it is that which modern horror needs, I thought the Blair Witch project played brilliantly on what we didn't see, and yet for me it had a real creepy feel to it, a great film, I must say however, my partner had nightmares for days after seeing red face in the first insidious.

I really don't think the point of the Insidious series is to scare the audience, although it does do that. It's created a sort of mythology with The Further, astral projection, and the villains themselves. However, a series like Friday the 13th, in my opinion, is just to show off "cool" death scenes to the audience with as little story as they can possibly squeeze in.

I'm sort of split on showing and not showing the villain to the audience. I thought the red-faced demon in Insidious looked great, but in something like Mama, the villain looked crappy. I think it just depends on the movie.

cant wait for this one, have really enjoyed the others.

Me too ::smile:: !!

I'll check it out since I've seen the first two. I've always been a fan of Supernatural horror. I hope this movie doesn't let me down.

The trailer does nothing for me. Loved Chapter 2, but considering this is a prequel to the Pt. 1, I'll wait for the stream.
