RUN TIME 1 HOUR 36 MIN

MPAA RATING: R

MY IMDB RATING 8.5



DIRECTOR: Corin Hardy

MAIN CAST: Demian Bichir, Tassa Farmiga, Jonas Bloquet



A priest with a haunted past and a novice on the threshold of her final vows are sent by the Vatican to investigate the death of a young nun in Romania and confront a malevolent force in the form of a demonic nun.

MY REVIEW

This movie was part of the Conjuring Series focused on the investigations of  Ed and Lorraine Warren. It did not disappoint. It did have those spine tingling moments. And I am not sure what was more scarier, the ghost or the story behind the nun leading up to the end. They both worked together nicely terrifying.  It did not dwell on special effects till the end. What I mean about that is while there was special effects through out the whole movie, It did not need the big budget movie effects till the end. Too many special effects can kill a horror movie no matter how well written it was. I can not recommend this as a family movie and it has a well deserved R rating. It is really cool how the Conjuring movies blend together but are unique in their own way. It was really great to see this at the theater. I truly enjoyed watching this movie.
