Chilling Movie

Rating: 8/10 (19 January 2018)

The Conjuring is a movie that many people would see with their friends as a joke, but end up curled up in a ball by the end of it. The chilling and suspenseful scenes that plague the movie only add to the overall horrific tone that is present in the movie. The sound design and lack there of it for some scenes adds to the suspense tenfold, causing the hairs to stick up on the back of the necks of viewers. The acting is good, including a mix of alright and solid child actors. The story and background is very interesting, but it sets up for the creation of the first Annabelle movie; this turned out to be a terrible idea. However, The Conjuring by itself is a great horror movie and one of the best from the 21st Century.
