 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: The host of a popular paranormal podcast becomes haunted by terrifying recordings mysteriously sent her way. This was definitely an interesting scary movie but not a traditional paranormal movie. I found it to be more of a psychological thriller more than anything else. While there were some paranormal aspects to the story it felt more like things that can be explained away if you were a skeptic.  One thing that I couldn't help but pick up on was first with the previews there were a couple movies that had the name Mother Mary or some variation of it in the movie title which clearly the movies had nothing to do with her and then in this movie there was a bastardized figurine that kept popping up. It's as if Hollywood and the Satanists who run it can't help but keep mocking her. The more I'm reading my Bible and getting closer to Christ, the more I'm seeing how truly evil this world is even in something as simple as a ...

 ***This review will contain spoilers**** Summary: Paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren take on one of the most sensational cases of their careers after a cop stumbles upon a dazed and bloodied young man walking down the road. Accused of murder, the suspect claims demonic possession as his defense, forcing the Warrens into a supernatural inquiry unlike anything they've ever seen before.  Opening scene: Ed and Lorraine are helping a little boy named David with an exorcism. The demon leaves David alone, unfortunately, Arne invites the demon into him. As if the night couldn't get any crazier, Ed ends up having a major heart attack that was caused by the demon possessing the little boy's body.  This was such an intense and well done movie. I feel that's a theme with reviewing the Conjuring movies. I always say they were well done and executed perfectly. But in all honesty, I loved every single one of them including this one. In this movie, we're expanding and...

 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: Determined to keep Annabelle from wrecking more havoc, paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren lock the possessed doll in the artifact room in their house. But when the doll awakens the room's evil spirits, it soon becomes an unholy night of terror for the couple's 10-year old daughter, her babysitter and her friends.  Opening scene:  Ed and Lorraine take the Annabelle doll but on the way home their car mysteriously breaks down in front of a cemetery and a spirit tries to kill Ed by pushing him in the path of a truck. The doll is a beacon for spirits and not even a couple of minutes into their artifact room and other spirits were acting out.  This movie was exactly what I was asking for! I always wanted the universe to expand to show more of these old cases that the Warrens worked on in the past and to expand some more on the artifact room. This movie was spot on amazing, had great actors and the story was rea...

 ***There will be spoilers in this review*** Summary: When a young nun at a cloistered Abbey in Romania takers her own life, a priest with a haunted past and a novitiate on the threshold of her final vows are sent by the Vatican to investigate. Together they uncover the order's unholy secret. Risking not only their lives but their faith and their very souls, they confront a malevolent force in the form of the same demonic nun from the Conjuring 2 as the abbey becomes a horrific battleground between the living and the damned.  Opening scene: Taking place in 1952, we are automatically being reintroduced to the same demonic entity; Valak that the Warrens fought. The demon is hunting down nuns in an abbey and wrecking havoc on their lives. The haunting is so severe that one of the nuns takers her own life to escape the demon and prevent it from possessing her body.  From start to finish, this is a frighteningly well done movie. It brings all the elements from the previous con...

 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: Former toymaker Sam Mullins and his wife, Esther, are happy to welcome a nun and six orphaned girls into their California farmhouse. Years earlier, the couple's 7 year old daughter Annabelle died in a tragic car accident. Terror soon strikes when one child sneaks into a forbidden room and finds a seemingly innocent doll that appears to have a life of its own.  At the start of the movie I was skeptical because we already knew how Annabelle was created from the first movie so what more could they possibly add to her story? The first half of the movie was dull and insufferable. There was no real development to the story, I do like movies that have a slow buildup but each scene adds to the story. This movie didn't have that. There was nothing exciting about the opening scene that hooked me in and having a bunch of girls move into a house didn't add anything either.  I found the Mullins story and experiences after their daughte...

 ***This review will contain spoilers*** Summary: Lorraine and Ed Warren travel to North London to help a single mother raising four children alone in a house plagued by malicious spirits.  Opening scene: We are introduced and given some background to another one of the Warren's most famous cases; The Amityville haunting. This has been made into so many movies that I hope when it gets adapted in to the Conjuring universe that it's actually well made and not like some that made it look like a low budget movie.  Yet again they hit this out of the mark. Whole new story but executed really well like the first one. Typically, sequels tend to suck because they try to redo the first movie again which tends to be the first mistake. With sequels, it's best to flip the script and do something different from the first one which I'm happy to say is what they did for the second conjuring movie.  We're in a whole different country, a new family being plagued by demonic forces but...

 ***There will be spoilers in this review*** Summary:  Members of a satanic cult invade the home of a man and his pregnant wife and turn a vintage doll into a conduit for ultimate evil.  Opening scene: We get the same flashback from the conjuring about the 2 nurses experiencing paranormal activity when one of their moms gift them the Annabelle doll.  I am thoroughly impressed with this movie. I didn't expect it to be as good as it was. It has all the right elements from the sound, music, script, characters etc. Everything was really well thought out and I truly appreciate that in a movie.  I love watching horror movies, especially, if there is a supernatural element to it. However, I've come across a lot of them that were complete garbage. Either the story is rushed or there's no plot or the acting is extremely terrible. But this movie really ticked all the boxes for me. I had this constant sense of dread and foreboding. I held my breath and at times a little sc...

(((((Please be warned there are spoilers))))) Movie Summary: In 1960's California, a fake medium's daughter tries to communicate with her late father through a Ouija board, but unleashes a demon instead. This movie is the prequel of the movie Ouija which I have already reviewed. The review for the movie Ouija is here. In the movie we are introduced to the Zander family. The widowed mother Alice and her two daughters Paulina and Doris. Due to losing her husband, Alice becomes the sole provider for her family and to earn some sort of income she performs séances to help her clients get closure from their passed loved ones. She makes money off of scamming people and she uses both her daughters to do it. Personally, I think it's really fucked up to exploit someone's pain and grief to make a few quick bucks. But using her own logic, through deceit she is able to provide some sort of comfort and closure. It does not take too long for Alice to incorporate the po...
