These days, it doesn’t take long for movies to arrive on digital after their theatrical release, but the latest film in the Insidious series, Insidious: The Red Door (2023), has already landed on VOD (video on demand) just a few weeks after arriving on the big screen!

Insidious: The Red Door is the fifth film in the popular Insidious franchise. This time, Patrick Wilson, who reprises his role as Josh Lambert in the film, having also appeared in Insidious (2010) and Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013), is also in the director’s chair.

Ty Simpkins, Rose Byrne, Andrew Astor, Leigh Whannell, Angus Sampson, and Lin Shaye also reprise their roles as Dalton Lambert, Renai Lambert, Foster Lambert, Specs, Tucker, and Elise Rainier, respectively.

While the new film grossed $174 million worldwide against a budget of $16 million during its theatrical run, making it the highest-grossing film of the series, Insidious: The Red Door was met with mostly negative to mixed reviews from audiences and critics.

Besides smashing it at the box office, the film did enjoy another major win, by overtaking the mega-sequel Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023), which had the jump on The Red Door by a week, yet failed to perform as well as expected in theaters.

Patrick Wilson, director and star of The Red Door, shared this success on X/Twitter:

This doesn’t happen without a MASSIVE group of like-minded people who all brought their “A game.” Thank you! I’m humbled and appreciative. (and really f’ing happy)
