Annabelle
Annabelle
John Form znajduje idealny podarunek dla swojej ciężarnej żony Mii — piękną i rzadko spotykaną starodawną lalkę ubraną w śnieżnobiałą suknię ślubną. Radość Mii z prezentu nie trwa jednak długo. Pewnej straszliwej nocy para zostaje napadnięta w domu przez wyznawców szatana, którzy brutalnie atakują małżonków. Jednak rozlana krew i przerażenie to nie wszystko, co po sobie pozostawią. Okultyści wywołają istotę tak złą, że nic z tego, co uczynili, nie będzie w stanie równać się ze złowrogą bramą do świata przeklętych, jaką stanie się... Annabelle.
So this is the first of The Conjuring universe films that I hadn't seen. Not sure why I skipped this one after thinking The Conjuring was so scary, it must have been the trailer that made me disinterested? Anyway, I enjoyed this! Pretty creepy however I would say it's a step down from Conjuring in terms of overall horror. I think what I find scary/interesting about some of the other films is that it's a whole family being haunted by a spirit, this featured just a married couple and then eventually a newborn. Oh and also the fact that there are no Ed and Lorraine Warren in this one, they definitely add a lot to the emotional weight of a film.
There were definitely a handful of pretty scary moments scattered throughout but nothing that really sticks with you. I did think it was interesting how the spirit that ends up possessing Annabelle was written to be a Charles Manson type follower that invades the home of our main characters. Definitely a choice that works for the time period of the movie. Like I said, it's a step down from The Conjuring but this is still way better than a lot of other horror out there. (Wan should not let anyone else direct movies in this series)
Annabelle:
- 3 out of 5
- one of the creepiest looking dolls ever but I myself am not really scared of dolls
- the demon-like creature that is linked with Annabelle was definitely a creepy design
