9. Insidious: Chapter 4

The Insidious franchise feels like it's already gone on for far too long, but 2018 will see the release of a third sequel in the seven-year-old series, and this time around, one of its best supporting characters will serve as the main protagonist.

In Insidious 4, parapsychologist Elise Rainier (Lin Shaye) will assume the mantle of lead character - despite dying in the first movie. Skills.

The film - which was originally set for release this year, before being pushed back - will follow Rainier as she investigates the haunting of her own family home.

The Insidious series has been a story of diminishing returns, and horror sequels, in general, are less satisfying than their predecessors, so it's hard to get too excited about a fourth entry, but perhaps the addition of Adam Robitel in the director's chair - a newcomer to the series - can inject some freshness into proceedings.

In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
