Best Horror 2013

Rating: 8/10 (18 October 2013)

BASED ON A TRUE STORY. Though I have no idea on up-to what extent the above quote is true, this can be classified as one of the best, if not the best, horror movie of the year.
However the base of the movie is from one of the main cases performed by the paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren which is named as "The Perrons".
The movies opens with a scene involving a doll named "Annabelle" which brings the memories of "The Bride of Chucky" and is the first remark to notify the viewers of what is to unfold in the next one and a half hours of a classical horror experience.
"The Conjuring" never loses the initial momentum it gains and takes the viewers through a horrifying journey, involving a witch who has hung herself few hundred years ago, a possessed mother killing her child and so many other terrifying events.
The movie brings the viewers to a position where a mere slam of a door can be terrifying enough to make them jump from their seats. In keeping the viewer horrified and curious at the same time, an important feature of this movie is that it doesn't contain much gore as seen in many recent Hollywood horror movies.
In a nutshell, for people who crave to watch horror movies, this is a must-watch and for people who have given up on horror movies because of the gory images they contain and who are fed up with watching horror movies without a strong background story, "The Conjuring" is a movie worth watching.
