A Proper Horror Film

Rating: 8/10 (22 November 2013)

This was probably the only movie that came close to scaring me recently. The atmosphere of the movie is outstanding and succeeds in keeping the element of suspense throughout. Viewers especially those who believe in the theme are bound to experience some chills. The movie does have some flaws which includes a familiar plot but some amazing acting, cinematography, style etc sets it apart from others, credit to James Wan for that.
I feel just when horror movies were losing its true identity and gory movies were being called horror, movies like Insidious, Mama etc are a step in the right direction in reviving this genre. Among this bunch The Conjuring stands out so far and with its success I soon expect to see some more movies which are damn scary and rated R for terror alone.
