The story begins with a flashback where Elise as a child whose upbringing has taken place in New Mexico in 1950s by her her father, who was a prison guard.

Then the trouble begins and they came to know that whatever she has bring in this world from that portal is still there and causing problems.
Performance and Cast -
Lin Shaye as Elise was no different than before as good as she was in the prequels. Her nieces Spencer Locke as Mellisa and Caitlin Gerard as Imogen Rainer were introduced in the movie so that the ghost hunting torch can be passed down from Elise to someone else may be.The employee Angus Sampson as Tucker and Leigh Whannel as Specs were fine with their characters. Their lines were more like PJs than the element of fun like "She is psychic, we are sidekick".
Music was average and Cinematography was good.
I have thought that may be this time Insidious will come with a bang but same old same old it is no better than the first part. So, I will not recommend you to go for a cinema hall watch.
Thats all from my side.
Peace Out.
