In doing so, they defile the nursery by inscribing a bloody rune on the wall and staining Mias doll with their blood, transforming the once-beautiful doll into a conduit for unspeakable evil.

Variety review: The scares are cheap but periodicallyeffective in Annabelle, a cut-rate spinoff fromJames Wans superlative haunted-house hit The Conjuring that (partly) makes up in crude shock effects what it lacks in craft, atmosphere and just about every other department.

When the youngest daughter starts to show signs of demonic possession, the pair try to help the besieged girl only to become the next targets of the malicious spirit.

Variety review: The Conjuring 2 makes it easy to revel, because Wan has a gift that most slam-bang horror directors today do not: asenseof the audience of their rhythm and pulse, of how to manipulate a moment so that hes practicallycontrolling your breathing.

The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (2021)

Accused of murder, the suspect claims demonic possession as his defense, forcing the Warrens into a supernatural inquiry unlike anything theyve ever seen before.

Variety review: The Devil Made Me Do It isless scary than its predecessors, but what I found unintentionally funny is that as the identity of the perpetrator comes to the fore, the culprit is showcased exactly as if she were another demon!
