When a film announces itself as being "from the creators of Saw," well, you'll forgive me if my expectations are more than a little tempered. So you can imagine my surprise when director James Wan and writer Leigh Whannell answered my skepticism with a real, grown-up horror movie built on mood and imagery instead of another childish exercise in gimmickry.
Insidious is an old-fashioned haunted-house flick that understands, as all good horror movies do, that the less we see, the better it is. Whatever spirit or ghost or ghoul or monster is plaguing our characters, no matter how scary, is inevitably less so the more we see of it. It can't haunt the screen if it's constantly in front of it.
