Our take
The sixth Insidious horror entry follows a single mother who can pull spirits from the Further into our world, drawing demon hunters to her daughter. PG-13 jump scares, dental body horror, and franchise demon lore make it best for teens who handle supernatural horror.
Uplifting themes
Collider notes the film shifts toward empowerment, redemption, and forgiveness in its second half Gemma fights to protect her daughter with help from Elise Rainier. Amelia Eve's performance is praised as a desperate but determined parent
