The smash sequel haunts homes in hi-def this January.

Personal thoughts: I saw the premiere in London and it's not better, nor worse than its predecessor. For £14, I've pre-ordered.

Insidious Chapter 2 Blu-ray

It was a bit of a letdown compared to the first but I'll pick it up when it's cheap to catch up again for Insidious Chapter 3. Hopefully in a double-pack with the first which I only have on DVD.

Same special features according to the press release. Audio is DTS HD 5.1 with English subs. Expect an AVC MPEG4 transfer.

Oh right, I have the first Red released by them, is the second one a really bad release?

Phil92 · 01-04-2014, 09:20 AM

Well, it looked fine to me, but I don't have anything to compare it to.

screen grabs and review comments from https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Insid.../79068/#Review

just checking as I read E1 Red 2 had some compression issues, making sure they didnt botch up this one before I order it,

nuttyhotspurs · 01-05-2014, 12:51 PM

Watched this last night. Lights off , sound cranked up and it really creeped me out! Loved the final scene/twist,look forward to Chapter 3. I wonder who will take Wan's reins?

Looks the exact same to me, I saw no compression.

cool thanks, I can order the cheaper UK disk then

levcore · 01-06-2014, 12:53 PM

£13.99 HMV, double pack £19.99.

AddemFlood · 01-08-2014, 06:49 AM

Weirdly I saw this twice at the cinema. Saw it with a friend and then a bunch of friends, I really enjoyed it. A lot of creepy and slightly jumpy moments, but all in all it's a film that's easy to watch for me.

Will get when it goes down in price a tad. Is the slip a full length one? or a smaller one like the first film's release?

levcore · 01-08-2014, 07:24 AM

Slip is full length mate, looks a bit odd next to the first films stubby slip. Watched this last night, really enjoyed it!

Thanks for the info. I'll be picking this up once it comes down in price a little.

88thCrazy · 01-29-2014, 10:43 AM

I watched this for the first time last night. I enjoyed it, but not as much as the first.

Did anyone else experience a couple of strange scenes when watching their blu ray? For a good chunk of the 2nd half of the film, I can only describe it as having that "soap opera" style motion plus effect (even though my TV doesn't have that feature)

At first, I thought it was just the camera style as the majority of it was shot through a characters video camera, but then I noticed it when it wasn't supposed to be. It was like it was almost sped-up. Strange.

I couldn't tell you. My TV does that, anyway. It's called Motion Rate (and it's bloody annoying).
