What'd we think of Insidious: Chapter 3?
(Out of 5 stars)

Since the next episode will be #25 for us, we thought we'd switch things up a little and do a quarterly recap of all the movies we've reviewed thus far. We'll also be ranking them based on fun categories like "hunkiest gent", "best soundtrack", "best animal actor, etc." If you have any suggestions for categories, we'd love to hear 'em and read 'em on the show. Let's talk it out, guys.
