A good old fashion horror movie

Rating: 10/10 (16 August 2013)

When i went in to the theater to watch The Conjuring i had a preconceived notion of what i'm about to get into, but lets just say i was proved wrong. The first half of the movie is a story build up so there aren't many scares, the real treat is the second half specially the last half and hour that keeps you on the edge of the seat. James Wan let's you know and enjoy the first half letting you know the characters only to put us through some chilly and horrific moments later. The Conjuring relies on atmosphere rather than gore to serve the very simple ambition of scaring the hell out of the viewers. This is a horror film where a pair of suddenly clapping hands gives you the scares and i know it may sound childish but it does work. By the end of the movie you are left with some properly shaped nails due to the dramatic silences and sudden scares that are frighteningly impressive. If You are a big fan of blood and gore then this is not for you but if you are looking for some good old fashion suspense and horror then this one is a definite watch.
