I think there are many reasons why the film does not feel scary. First of all, most of the film is devoted to describing the family of the victim. For example, the protagonist's little girl can talk about smoking for a long time, and at the end of the film, she also tells Mom doesn't actually smoke. Or her family is poor or something. Maybe there's too much length in the non-horror part, so the whole movie didn't frighten me.
Secondly, the addition of the Warrens is rather abrupt. It seems that it has nothing to do with the little girl's family, but only appeared to kill the boss at the end. Originally, the little girl's house was just a ghost that was brought in because she and her sister played the game of conjuring. This family, but since the Warrens came to his house, all the horror has escalated. The harm to the little girl and the degree of fright to her family are all different from before. In the end, people misunderstood that it was the little girl who directed and acted. Although when I watched it, when the Warrens came to her house, the horror clips were the most dense, but the warm clips interspersed in the middle also made me feel less nervous and afraid as an audience.
In the end, although the boss is very cunning, the skills look strong and can make the old man who is already a ghost suffer so much. But it seems to be too weak to die. Not only was his name known easily, but he was also killed effortlessly. I really can't understand that the biggest boss in the whole show, a nun, was so terrifying when he appeared, especially when he stretched out his hands from both sides of the painting in the middle, and he died so easily, which makes people feel too uncomfortable. It's fun, but the ending is too hasty.
The whole film still looks very warm and full of strong maternal love. Even though the other children in the family have moved to the neighbor's house, the girl's mother is still determined to accompany her daughter to live in the haunted house. There is also a very funny part in the middle. Maybe the viewing environment is different. Everyone is guessing while watching. It makes me feel that it is quite interesting to watch horror movies that are not scary. The girl's neighbor called the police, and the police came to her house to inspect the house. At first, they guessed whether someone was deliberately playing a prank or whether there was a series of problems such as mice. Finally, they saw the moving chairs and fled in a panic.
A group of people came to the house for an interview, and the old man turned on his body whenever a word disagreed. You must know that Chinese ghosts or spirits can't see the sun, and will lose their spirits. Foreign ghosts are really powerful. There are a lot of people in the house who don't believe it, it's amazing.
I always say that the whole drama is a bit anticlimactic. I talked about a lot of things before, but most of them have nothing to do with horror. Whenever there is a terrifying plot, the horror is always diluted by warm clips, which leads to watching the whole drama. It didn't feel scary either. The previous too much procrastination led to the hasty ending at the end, the nun was easily eliminated, and everything returned to calm. In the play, there are two ghosts, one is an old man and the other is a nun. If it hadn't been played until the end, it would have always felt like two stories were being told, and the middle would have felt very incoherent. The Warrens went home disappointed, and suddenly discovered the mystery of the matter on the train. They flew back, and when they were flying, it was more like watching an action movie. Perhaps there were too many factors unrelated to horror that led to the result that was not scary at all. .
However, as someone who has always rejected horror films thousands of miles away, I thought it was acceptable after watching The Conjuring 2, because whenever horror is about to appear, there will always be some details that make me premonition, and then avoid looking at it head-on. arrive. In addition, most of the warm scenes relieved my nervous emotions very well. I can still accept this level of horror movies, and I don't mind watching a few movies of similar level.
