Rating: 10/10 (18 June 2016)

I'm a massive fan of James Wan, but even his previous films have had their flaws in relying too heavily on jump scares. This uses an excellent amount of tension mixed in with the jumpiness and can create serious uneasiness while delivering complete satisfaction. This is truly a horror film to be remembered and treasured away for the ages. Even though I went in with high expectations, this seriously blew them out of the water and really ascended to new heights. Believe the hype, it is more than well deserved, kudos to James Wan and the cast with some outstanding displays of acting from everyone involved. Absolute masterclass. Musical direction is seriously on point too, I can't stress enough how good this film is.
