    THIS WEEK: The Ninth Configuration (1980) and The Exorcist III (1990)

    THIS WEEK: Insidious (2010), Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013) and Insidious: Chapter 3 (2015)

    This franchise is going strong after 16 years, yet seemingly no one on earth actually watches these films. It's well past time that someone investigated Insidious.
