      A real horror movie

      "The Birth of Annabelle" is the second work of the Annabelle series. It is directed by director Wen Ziren. Compared with the previous work, the horror of this one is more realistic. Looking at director Wen's works, you will find that most of them have An evil demon, and powerful enough not to be afraid of the Bible, Wen Dao combines the details of the demon with the jumpscare of traditional horror films just right, and the description of demons in this work is obviously much more than...

      I finally figured out the source

      The coherence of the story, the setting of suspense, the shooting, and the artistic effects are much better than Annabelle 1.
      Familiar routines, the atmosphere is good, and the viewing experience is tense and exciting.
      Especially when the girl opened her eyes wide and used the catapult gun to project bullets at the dark fear over and over again. I believe that every one of us has a similar experience in childhood, but it didn't really happen in real life. Unexpectedly, in the movie...

      Annabelle's past and present

      In 2017, Annabelle filmed the prequel, which was a filling in for the first Annabelle in 2014.
      In my opinion, the previous work of this show is very routine, and the mode of surprise makes people feel very low. Although the play still inherits this feature that is not an advantage. However, the scary way has gone from the shock of the previous work to the classic setting of the devil possessed. Although the horror color has been weakened, a single person thinks that the overall quality is...

      Curiosity really killed the cat

      Annabelle's parents are pitiful. They lost their beloved daughter and were deceived by the devil. They agreed that the devil possessed the doll, and then adopted several girls. As a result, the husband and wife both received lunch boxes within a week.

      This girl Janet also has itchy hands. She was adopted by others. In someone else's house, the owner told you not to enter that room. If you don't listen, you will harm others and yourself. The other little loli is really brave, not only...

      general plot

      I watched this film because I saw it was an adaptation of a true event. The second part is a prequel to the first part.

      Rather than being scary, it would be better to say that the director used light, shadow and soundtrack to create a suspenseful effect, but generally speaking, there is neither a thrilling picture nor a tense and exciting plot.

      The recent horror films all have some religious themes. I don’t know why, but there are no good themes [laugh cry][laugh...

      I checked the IMBD7.x score to watch it; the result is seriously inconsistent with the score, there are almost no scary plots and no new ideas. Xiao Wen's ambition is very big, forcibly connecting the conjuring worldview, it seems that he wants to create a monster universe? Really not worth the score of...

      Not attractive at all. . . But it was meant to kill time. During the whole process, I listened to the Malaysian students switching freely between Malay, English and Chinese, laughing and screaming for a while. . Several times I heard them say "scare me to death", "I'm going to die", "I'm going home" and "lao" are all pronounced as liao, so cute...

      The rhythm feels intermittent, like a movie made by two people. Some parts are handled well, and it has the taste of the previous films. It is already very exciting to be able to shoot like...

      The prequel story, explaining the mystery of the doll's life experience, forcibly connected with "Annabelle 1" at the end; this "Birth" also cannot escape the "death" routine, although the protagonists are all little girls. The horror points come and go, the camera is set for storytelling, clumsy and no recommended highlights, it is true that there are "ghosts" scaring people and hurting people; 2.5 stars is a bonus for young...

    Evaluation action

    The film is closer to the first part of the series in terms of style and psychological horror strategy than "Call of Souls 2" and "Annabelle". Director Sandberg's keen perspective successfully restarted the series. ("Hollywood Reporter" review)
    "Annabel 2: Birth", like other films in "The Call of the Souls", makes full use of cheap horror film techniques. The scary sections of the film are very delicately set up, and they are diverse...
