    the moral of the story is that if you move to a new house and your dog is scared and refuses to walk inside, it’s time to find another new house

    The Conjuring

    The Conjuring goes back to basics and manages to make something much more effective out of its formulaic story. The use of tension, atmosphere and suggestion prove that the scariest thing to audience has nothing to do with what you see, but what you don’t.

    One of the best horror movies in my opinion. Used amazing practical effects throughout the entirety of the film and had great actors….except Joey King🤢

    Everything that happened to the family could have been avoided if they all could’ve just listened to Sadie the dog in the first place.

    The Conjuring

    My rating mostly reflects my personal preference, the obvious propaganda, and the weak ending. Otherwise, I can see exactly why this film is considered a phenomenon among horror fans. The directing is exceptional, as is the tension-packed and unpredictable handheld camerawork. It's frightening…

As horror movies go, The Conjuring is an extremely skillful, entertaining remix album. That's not an insult.
