The first actual sequel since Chapter 2, Insidious: The Red Door finds the Lambert family all growed up and still gettin spooked! That's right, the previous two entries were prequels but we're officially moving forward with the fifth (and final?) entry and I could not be more excited! Mike on the other hand? He's been burned by this franchise before... but perhaps he's come around over the last decade??
Plot (via Wiki):
In 2019, nine years after his possession, Josh Lambert's (Patrick Wilson) memories of his experience in The Further have been repressed. He is divorced from his wife Renai (Rose Byrne) and his mother Lorraine has recently died. His relationship with his son Dalton (Ty Simpkins) has become strained, and he attempts to heal things between them while dropping him off at college but it ends with them in an argument.
In his first art class, Dalton ends up drawing a picture of the red door used to enter The Further. Meanwhile, Josh begins being haunted by the spirit of a man, eventually discovering that it is his father Ben Burton who he believed abandoned his family when he was young. Dalton attends a frat party with his roommate Chris (Sinclair Daniel), where he sees the ghost of a student that is constantly vomiting. After accidentally going into The Further again, Chris shows Dalton a KZfaq video by Specs (Leigh Whannell) and Tucker (Angus Sampson), explaining how astral projection works, which leads to a clip of Elise Rainier (Lin Shaye) talking about The Further.
Dalton attempts to astral project again while Chris watches over his body, Chris is then attacked by an unseen entity and her screams alert Dalton, who rushes back to his body and sees that it is the red-faced demon that tormented him as a child. After being warned by Chris to stop using his abilities, Dalton receives a call from his brother Foster (Andrew Astor) who tells about a recurring dream he used to have of Josh trying to kill them. This spurs Dalton's memory and he finishes his painting, which shows a possessed Josh in front of the red door. A distressed Dalton is pulled into The Further, back to when a possessed Josh attacked them in the basement. He tackles Josh as Josh attempts to kill the younger Dalton and ends up transported back to the red-faced demon's (Joseph Bishara) lair.
Josh begins researching his father and discovers that he killed himself while institutionalized in a mental hospital. He talks to Renai, who reveals the truth about what happened to their family a decade ago and that his father also had the ability to astral project but believed the things he saw were a result of mental illness. Foster shows them a photo of Dalton's painting he texted and they realize Dalton is in danger. Renai helps Josh to go back into The Further to rescue their son.
With Dalton trapped in his lair, the demon possesses his body and attempts to kill Chris but is stopped when Josh manages to find and free Dalton. The demon chases them to the red door and Josh stays behind to keep it shut so Dalton will be safe, Dalton returns to his body and paints over his red door painting with black paint, which in turns seals the real door and The Further.
Josh meets his father's spirit, who guides him back to the living world. Once back, Josh agrees to have dinner with Renai and the kids, hinting at a possible reunion. As he leaves, he unknowingly meets Elise's spirit, who tells him that he has a bright future ahead of him. Josh then drives to Dalton's college, where father and son reconcile as Dalton presents a painting of Josh carrying a young Dalton out of The Further.
In a post credits scene, the light over the sealed door to the Further flickers back on.
