The famed horror team of director James Wan and writer Leigh Whannell reunite with the original cast of Patrick Wilson, Rose Byrne, Lin Shaye, Barbara Hershey and Ty Simpkins in INSIDIOUS: CHAPTER 2, a terrifying sequel to the acclaimed horror film, which follows the haunted Lambert family as they seek to uncover the mysterious childhood secret that has left them dangerously connected to the spirit world.

Directer: James Wan

Cast: Patrick Wilson, Rose Byrne, Lin Shaye, Ty Simpkins, Barbara Hershey, Danielle Bisutti, Michael James Grise and Lindsay Seim

In theaters: September 13, 2013

The first time I saw Insidious I really wasn’t impressed. It took me until I caught it again on cable and watched it a second time to really appreciate what a well made movie it is. I’m actually a big fan of the old school style of film making. Which is why I’m surprised i had to watch it twice to become a fan. Now I’m eagerly waiting to see Insidious 2 on the big screen.

How about you? Will you see Insidious 2 in theaters, or wait for the Blu-ray?
