I thought Insidious was pretty decent, but agree with digitopolis about the split in the tone of the film. I haven't seen the sequel yet so can't comment on that one.
Saw was also decent, but tainted and lessened a little by the barrage of increasingly bad sequels. To date I've only seen II, III and V and have no desire to see the others.
Dead Silence was a pretty creepy film, but it did drag in certain areas. Okay horror entertainment fodder, though.
I thought The Conjuring was a bland and boring mess. Not scary in the slightest; jump scares and supernatural set-pieces does not a good film make. There was a complete lack of suspense or original storytelling. It's a film I certainly won't be revisiting.
I've never seen Death Sentence.
