One of the good horror movie experiences I have had in a long time

Rating: 9/10 (7 August 2013)

Good horror movies are so rarely made these days .And I can say that The Conjuring is one of those rare movies.
This is not the scariest movie ever to be honest but it does provide the audience with some good scary jumps. I really like that director James Wan(Saw, Dead Silence) doesn't use CGI too much to create scary faces. The fact that he uses more prosthetic make up makes it look more real and terrifying. And this is coming from someone who very rarely gets frighten while watching horror movies. I was on the edge of my seat during the last 30 minutes of the movie .Tension is slowly build in this movie from the beginning throughout the entire movie from scene construction.
The first half of the movie is slow .Not a lot of thing happens in it but the second half of the movie is quiet chilling ,and this is where you get into the story completely. The storyline is not that original .It's about this family who moves into a haunted house and then paranormal researchers come to figure out the problem and fix it .Despite the 'common haunted house ,possessed by demon' storyline( sounds familiar?),the story is actually well developed throughout the course of the movie.
The characters of the movie could have been developed more. One of the flaws of this movie is the character Roger Perron. I feel like his character wasn't developed at all. He was just there to be there. Everyone's acting was good . Vera Farmiga's ,Lily Taylor's (specially during the second half)and Patrick Wilson's performance is worth mentioning.
The cinematography is good as well .The vintage 70's horror atmosphere was just a perfect model for it.
Overall I give this movie 7.5/10.It is definitely worth watching at least once. If you are a horror movie fan,you will most likely enjoy it.
