Insidious: Chapter 3 is a 2015 American supernatural horror filmwritten and directed by Leigh Whannell in his directorial debut. It is a prequel to the first two films and the third installment in theInsidious film series. The film stars Dermot Mulroney and Stefanie Scott, with Angus Sampson, Whannell, and Lin Shaye reprising their roles from the previous films.

It was released on June 5, 2015 and has grossed over $109 million.

Plot[edit]

A few years before the haunting of the Lambert family, Elise Rainier reluctantly agrees to use her spiritual ability to contact the dead to help Quinn Brenner, a teenage girl whose mother Lillith has recently died. Quinn believes that Lillith has been attempting to reach out to her through the spirit world so she visits Elise for a reading. Elise is unable to complete the reading; she stops after hearing a demonic presence who threatens to kill her. She warns Quinn to stop trying to reach out to her mother on her own and that if "you call out to one of the dead, all of them can hear you."

Soon after, Quinn begins to hear noises at night and notices more supernatural occurrences. She skips school the next day to audition for a theater academy in New York. Before going onstage, she notices a dark figure waving to her offstage. She ends up botching her audition however, due to her overbearing father giving her responsibilities like taking care of her brother, Alex, and managing the house, which made it impossible for her to memorize her lines. Later that night, she meets with her friend Maggie, and discusses her unhappiness with her father's strictness and his lack of enthusiasm over her dreams. As they cross the street, Quinn sees the same dark figure waving down the street and stops to look, causing her to be hit by a car. The accident temporarily leaves her in a wheelchair with two broken legs in casts. Her father, Sean, puts her in bed, with a bell to ring if she needs him. That night, she is woken by the sound of the bell ringing by itself. The following night, she hears a knock on her wall. Assuming it is her next door neighbor Hector, she knocks back and he copies her. Quinn texts Hector, who reveals that he isn't home. Fearing it was someone else next door, she goes to bed.

These paranormal occurrences become more frequent, and each time, Sean saves her. The demon becomes more visible: a corpse of a burn victim with a breathing mask, who makes a rattling noise. At one point, the demon brings Quinn up to the upstairs apartment, where she sees a faceless, limbless version of herself. Sean rushes up to the apartment and follows the bloody footprints to the broken window. A man is lying on the pavement below, as if he committed suicide by jumping out. As Quinn goes to observe the window, the demon grabs Quinn and tries to pull her over the ledge. Sean saves her, but her neck is injured in the process. Sean contacts Elise, who hesitantly enters the spiritual realm (which she calls "The Further"). She finds herself afraid and the spirit of Parker Crane/Bride in Black nearly kills her. She is brought back to living world terrified, and refuses to continue. Sean has no choice but to call in someone else, a pair of bloggers, at the behest of his son: Specs and Tucker. Meanwhile at a Chinese restaurant, Elise seeks solace from her friend Carl, who shares her "gift". Carl reassures her that she is much stronger than she believes because she is a living being.

After a terrifying experience with Quinn and the demon, Specs and Tucker attempt to withdraw from the case but Elise, now willing to help, appears, more powerful and confident. She reveals that the demon isn't like others she's encountered. While most spirits from the Further seek to find bodies to possess so they can live again, this demon chooses to drag pure living souls into the Further so it can torture them. In the Further, Elise sets free the spirit of a girl the demon had captured years before and overcomes the Bride in Black. The Demon takes the form of Elise's dead husband, Jack, who killed himself a year ago, in an attempt to trick her into killing herself so they can be together. After a tearful reunion, Elise realizes that it is actually the Demon, and easily defeats him, but it grabs hold of a faceless version of Quinn. This version of Quinn is revealed to be the half of Quinn's soul that the demon controls. Elise returns to the living world, and tells the group that this part of the battle must be fought by Quinn alone. However, Quinn is losing the battle, as her alternate version gains more of her features. Elise hears the voice of the wife of the Brenner's neighbor who had died the other night, leading her to Quinn's diary, which contains a letter that Lillith wanted her to read before she graduated. The power from this letter helps guide Lillith to save Quinn and banish the demon. Lillith leaves her with some parting words and the family is finally reunited, while Specs and Tucker join Elise to deal with other supernatural disturbances.

Elise heads home to find that her husband's spirit has left his sweater on the bed. Overwhelmed with emotion, she holds his sweater close. Her dog then begins to bark into the darkness, where an ominous face peers back at her. As Elise gazes at the small face, then the Red-Faced Demon from the first film pops out next to her.

Production[edit]

Premiere at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood (June 4th 2015)

On September 15, 2013, a third installment in the Insidious series was announced, with Leigh Whannell signed on to return as writer, and Jason Blum and Oren Peli set to produce.[5] When asked about returning for another sequel, actor Patrick Wilson went on to say that he "[doesn't] know where else it could go", and that "[Josh Lambert has] been through the wringer, and I think the movie sets it up well at the end [...] And that's great, that's how it should end."[6] On November 13, 2013, it was announced Focus Features and Stage 6 Films would release the film on April 3, 2015. The date was later moved to May 29, 2015.[7][8]

On March 11, 2014, Screen Rant reported that the third film would not focus on the Lamberts, but on a new family and story, and would not connect to the last scene in the second film. It was also reported that both Whannell and Angus Sampson would return as ghost hunters Specs and Tucker, along with Lin Shaye as Elise.[9] On May 7, 2014, Wan tweeted that Whannell would direct the third film, which marks his directorial debut.[10] In June 2014, Stefanie Scott and Dermot Mulroney were cast in the film.[11][12] On September 22, 2014, during the Cinema Diverse Film Festival in Palm Springs, actress Ele Keats said she had recently wrapped an undisclosed supporting role in the film.[13]

Filming[edit]

Principal photography began on July 9, 2014,[14] in Los Angeles under the title "Into The Further", on a scheduled 29 day shoot.[15] Several scenes were shot in the San Fernando Valley at the Delfino Studios in Sylmar, where the Brenner apartment's interiors were built.[15]

A first look image was released on July 22, 2014.[16] Filming wrapped on August 18, 2014.[17]

The musical score for Insidious: Chapter 3 is composed by Joseph Bishara, who composed the music for the previous installments.[18] A soundtrack album for the film was released digitally on June 5, 2015 by Void Recordings.[19]

Marketing and promotion[edit]

A first teaser poster was released online on September 18, 2014, featuring a grey wall with a vent and the red text "The man who can't breathe, the man who lives in the vents, I heard him saying your name last night, I heard him in your room while you were gone, he's in there right now, standing in your room."[20] The first teaser trailer for the film was released by Focus Features on October 23, 2014.[21] The same day director Leigh Whannellinvited fans to join him for a live Q&A session on the movie's official Facebook page.[22] A few days later, on October 28, 2014 the same Facebook page reached 4 million fans.[23] On December 17, 2014, fans were invited to connect with Insidious on Kik Messenger for exclusive content.[24]

On March 16, 2015, Focus Features debuted a teaser for the full official trailer that was eventually released the following day, on March 17, 2015, during a series of launch events in selected cities, including Miami (where lead star Stefanie Scott held a Q&A session), Chicago (with supporting actress Hayley Kiyoko in attendance), and New York City (where Fangoria Magazine hosted a Q&A session with Lin Shaye).[25] A new poster featuring Stefanie Scott was also released the same day.[26] On July 3, 2014, Focus Features moved the already announced US theatrical release date from April 3 to May 29, 2015.[27] On December 10, 2014, the distribution company announced that the theatrical release date had been moved back again from May 29 to June 5, 2015.[28]

On May 20, 2015, Focus Features relaunched their Gramercy Pictures label for action, horror, and science fiction movies. Insidious: Chapter 3 was the first release from the revived Gramercy.[1]

Critical response[edit]

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes lists a 60% approval rating, based on 93 reviews, with a rating average of 5.5/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Insidious: Chapter 3 isn't as terrifying as the original, although it boasts surprising thematic depth and is enlivened by another fine performance from Lin Shaye."[33] OnMetacritic, which assigns a normalized rating, the film has a score of 52 out of 100, based on 26 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[34] In CinemaScore polls, cinema audiences gave the film an average score of "B+" on an A+ to F scale.[29]

Daniel Krupa of IGN awarded it a score of 7.1 out of 10, saying "Insidious: Chapter 3 is the most focussed, dark, and creepy installment of the series to date."[35] Scott Foundas of Variety gave the film a negative review, saying "Chief among things that go bump in the night in Insidious: Chapter 3 is the movie itself - a thuddingly dull prequel to James Wan's very enjoyable (and highly profitable) demonic-possession horror franchise."[36] Justin Lowe of The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a positive review, saying "Insidious: Chapter 3 offers a relatable young protagonist and several key supporting players from the prior films in a nimble setup to the series."[37]Kyle Anderson of Entertainment Weekly gave the film a B+, saying "Insidious Chapter 3 is the worst kind of sequel: Not terrible, but also cartoonishly unnecessary."[38] Michael Ordoña of the San Francisco Chronicle rated it zero out of four stars, saying "Insidious: Chapter 3 is simply not scary. Not a bit, not a whit. Except that the audience will be terrified of the next stabbing of their eardrums, at generally predictable intervals."[39] Michael O'Sullivan of The Washington Post gave the film one and a half stars out of four, saying "The Insidious franchise, after three attempts to exorcise its real demons, still can't seem to shake what really haunts it: the ghost of B-movies past."[40] Peter Howell of the Toronto Star gave the film two and a half stars out of four, saying "This prequel to the shriek hell, directed and scripted by series writer/actor Leigh Whannell, manages to avoid the Curse of the Triple Cash Grab."[41]

Kerry Lengel of The Arizona Republic gave the film three out of five stars, saying "Insidious: Chapter 3 is almost more a spoof of a classic like The Exorcist than it is an homage. It's not scary horror, it's silly horror, and the audience is in on the joke."[42] Stephen Whitty of the Newark Star-Ledger gave the film two and a half stars, saying "You need more than a few sudden noises and scary shocks to make a good horror movie. But Insidious: Chapter Three is at least an OK horror movie."[43] James Berardinelli of ReelViews gave the film two and a half out of four stars, saying "They say the third time's the charm. Not with the Insidious series, it isn't. Admittedly, installment #3 is an improvement over #2, but it fails to reach the highs of the chilling-but-uneven original."[44]Tim Robey of The Telegraph gave the film four out of five stars, saying "It manages the all-important jump scares with the finesse of a skilled stage illusionist, but it’s the surprisingly sincere emotional core that makes it the pick of the series."[45] Katie Rife of The A.V. Club gave the film a B-, saying "The motif of grief runs throughoutInsidious: Chapter 3, which is surprisingly thematically rich for the third installment of a horror franchise. This emotional undercurrent informs the fright scenes, which otherwise lean rather heavily on jump scares."[46] Bilge Ebiri of New York Magazine gave the film a negative review, saying "This is so often the problem with this genre — scary setups, followed by dopey resolutions — that you sort of want to give the movie a pass. But given its distinguished forebears, Insidious: Chapter 3 doesn’t quite live up to expectations."[47]

Possible sequel[edit]

In an interview Leigh Whannell was asked "If there is a forth Insidious film, would that be a sequel to Chapter 3, another prequel to the original or will it continue in this timeline or go to a whole new timeline?" Whannell stated: "I don’t know. I haven’t really thought about it yet. But for the purposes of this interview, I’ll say that I’d like to explore the time between this film and the first film. That whole area there where Elise has rediscovered her gift, I think you could have a lot of adventures before she arrives. So I think there is a lot of room there. We’ve kind of established Lin [Shaye] in this particular film as kind of this superhero, so that would be kind of interesting to explore in the other films."[48]
