Absolutely shocking..

Rating: 4/10 (7 August 2013)

I always like to check IMDb for reviews on films before going to see them . So I saw the adverts for "The Conjuring" and immediately came on here to check it out. Impressed by its unusually high rating for a horror, I thought it was worth a shot. How wrong I was.
Whilst its not the worst film I have ever seen, it is severely overrated. It is just the same as every other horror out there. It isn't scary, the ghouls are cheesy, I could've predicted every scene of the movie and the story line wasn't greatly put together.
After reading the stories about the real Ferran family haunting, I think a much better angle for this movie would have been to base it around the doll. That would have been scarier.
I came to the cinema expecting to need a change of underwear but came out feeling let down and wanting to regain 2 hours of my life I just wasted (or how ever long the film was, it felt like it was that long).
Like I said, I've seen a lot worse but I have seen much, much better.
The worst part is, it comes from the makers of fantastic films like Insidious and Saw... they downgraded a little.
