intensive terror

The challenge of courage is indeed the biggest selling point of the film. The "best" work in the whole film is indeed the horror atmosphere. It is almost composed of horror scenes from beginning to end, and the number is quite dense. Just like the true story of "The Story of the Creepy House" and the previous episode "Annabelle: The Creepy", the horror techniques in the play are very skilled, making good use of lighting, the arrangement of closed spaces, and the supernatural and surreal weird settings. Horror episodes are bursting forth, making the movie a "horror feast", exclamations and screams are inevitable, and it is absolutely successful in terms of scary levels. However, success is also terrifying, and defeat is also terrifying. Director Gary Dauberman is the screenwriter of the "Strange Baby" series. This time, he swaps roles with James Wan, the director of the "Strange House" series. The former is the director and the latter is mainly responsible for the script. Unfortunately, this crossover is far from ideal. The so-called "story" is just a series of scattered horror bits, but for a film with a length of 106 minutes, such a treatment is too sloppy.

    Perhaps the first six films can be regarded as the first stage of "The Conjuring Universe", but this film serves as an important link between the past and the next, not only bringing Annabelle's story back to the main line, but also in a rather clumsy way—— Let the demons in the cultural relic room appear in turn - laying the foundation for the second stage, the new and old demons such as the ferryman, bloody girl, ghost warrior, music box, ghost wolf, strange monkey, etc. It has been confirmed to be detailed in the next stage), and the Warrens' daughter Judy may also join the exorcism with her parents or even appear independently. However, in the "Conjuring Universe" so far, except for the "Conjuring" series, the quality of the other five films is really unflattering. It tends to be formulaic and routine, and it is difficult to win the continuous favor of horror movie fans. The shot of the PS glass being moved by the ghost pays homage to the "Stalker" of the old tower.
