Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with the 2023 horror movie "Insidious Inferno" prior to stumbling upon it by random luck here in 2024. And with it being a horror movie I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give writer and director Calvin Morie McCarthy's movie a fair chance.
The narrative in the movie is a bit mundane and sluggish. There simply isn't enough happening throughout the course of the 30 minutes that I manage to suffer through. After just 30 minutes of prolonged nothing happening, it felt like I had sat through 80 minutes or such already, so imagine my shock when I checked the counter and saw that only 30 minutes had passed. And thus, I gave up on the ordeal that is "Insidious Inferno".
"Insidious Inferno" was quite an insidious affair to suffer through. There wasn't anything particularly scary in the narrative, aside from how bland and monotonous it was.
I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, and that is something that I enjoy when I watch a movie. So that spoke in favor of the movie for me. The acting performances in "Insidious Inferno" were actually fair enough, nothing outstanding or memorable, mind you, but actually fair enough for what they turned out to be.
Visually then you're not in for anything grand either. So the movie doesn't score any points on that account.
"Insidious Inferno" is not a movie I would recommend you rush out and get to watch. In fact, give the movie a wide berth, because it simply isn't worth the effort. Some of us suffered through this, in lesser or greater extend, so you don't have to; you're very welcome. And believe you me, this is not a movie that I will ever return to attempt finish watching.
My rating of "Insidious Inferno" lands on a generous two out of ten stars.
