Great Movie

Rating: 10/10 (18 October 2016)

The Conjuring 2
We always hear that the sequel can never compare to the first one. But in this case, the second installation of The Conjuring is definitely comparable to the first. They travel back in time in a whole different country. The cast is swapped with the exception of two people: the ¨ghostbusters¨ if you will. These little twists refresh the viewers who fell in love with the first movie. The Conjuring 2 kicks off with a blast from the past, as it sets in 1977. Lorraine claims that this case still haunts her. It begins with your average single-parent poor family hardly scraping by. They became not-your-average-family when an 11 year old started showing strange symptoms of possession. Her voice changed to a 76 year old man's and there were unexplained bumps in the night. As a result, they call in real life ghostbusters Lorraine and Ed Warren to their home for help.
The year 2016 has been filled with new horror movies all the time so it'd be easy for this sequel to get lost. But this is definitely blockbuster material. The actors were well casted, skilled, and fit their characters perfectly. At times the editing was cheesy and you could definitely tell it was fake. That part dulled down the scare factor that we all came for.
However, the film's twists, turns, and horrors keep viewers on the edge of their seats the entire time. Earplugs are advised when someone in the room next to you is watching the movie. The first Conjuring was thrilling, exciting, well made, and most of all, horrifying. The sequel lacks nothing. There isn't anything gory, so those with weak stomachs can still watch.
This movie will be a cult classic for years, to sum it up. People won't just forget there was a second one ever made. Like the movie Grease, people barely remember there was ever a sequel to the first. You don't even have to see the first Conjuring; only two characters are connected to the second.
