I like the first half of the first film. When everything is really scary but then the other half is a mess. Ghosts running to get you with arms reaching? Really?

I think it was intentionally campy; kind of a love letter to the 80s horror flicks that combined scares with hilariousness.
The best way to describe "Insidious" is first half "Paranormal Activity" (although I would've gone with something scarier) and second half something akin to Sam Raimi's "Drag Me To Hell," which equates to a nice balance between self-seriousness and horror fun; and it's all wrapped up together as a love letter to "Poltergeist."

Honestly, this looks like a direct to DVD sequel. I don't see what looks so special about it, and I L O V E D the first movie. It just looks like a basic ghost movie. I hope they have more to show because I'm really disappointed. I wish they would've had another scary demon like in the first movie.
