Horror is a
genre that has a way of affecting us, long after we leave for home. Unlike
other genres the effect isn't positive and yet we are interested in the next
horror movie knowing well what’s in store. Though horror is a widely reiterated
genre, very few movies stand the test of time.
Expectations
starts to rise from the trailer on wards especially if the director of SAW and
INSIDIOUS is returning for his next venture. And the director has hit it right
in the bull’s eye.
The Warrens
are called in for help after the Perrons find an unsettling presence in their
new home. Add to this, the dog that senses ghosts, a cellar which should not
have been opened, the children becoming
the target, you will this movie to be fairly predictable. And that’s where you
go wrong.
The
screenplay is so tightly knit along with some strong performances from the
entire cast. The Warrens themselves have a past with demons, and as they are
ready to confront their worst fears, problems rise and ultimately all hell break
loose.
The tiniest
objects hold the utmost importance in a horror movie. This one is no exception
either. From the musical mirror thing to the chain of the Warrens to Mr. Warren’s
personal museum of cursed items, everything looks creepy and haunted (I bet, the
Annabelle Doll will look right through your soul.)
All this
leads to ultimate climax where everything that can go wrong in an exorcism goes
wrong. Adding to this macabre is the fact that the exorcism is not performed by
the pastor but by Mr.Warren himself.
Having said
that, THE CONJURING is definitely worth the price of admission and a must watch
for all horror fans.
PS: Don’t buy
a Coke for this movie because you will spill more than you drink.
