This movie did nothing for me. I wasn’t scared; I wasn’t interested. I never gave one single crap. I don’t know if this is a particularly uninteresting outing for the franchise, Rotten Tomatoes rated it as 56%, but I couldn’t get into it. My voice notes are always a mess of snark and judgement, but […]

The trilogy of demon doll conduits ends with Annabelle Comes Home. Probably. They trot this doll out in every one of these movies and even IRL take her out for the occasional meet and greet. Girly is the cash cow of the Conjuring Universe and they know it. It’s never safe to assume she’s done.

This doesn’t do them any favors in the credibility department since Amityville has been scrutinized and debunked more

When The Conjuring came out, there was one question on everyone’s mind. What is up with that creepy Annabelle doll from the cold open? At least that’s what I assume justified this movie. It’s a low point in the Conjuring Universe and as only the 2nd movie in the group, it’s kind of amazing that
