I like the second part more than the first part. Both of them are also based on real events. This kind of premise can make the audience's hair stand up casually. They are also dominated by female characters, and they all know that maternal love can conquer everything. I didn't expect that even the evil spirits could be defeated this time. The exorcist couple in the film were well-known figures in the United States at the time. It is worth mentioning that the actor Wilson who played Ed was really regarded as Director Wen's royal team, and at least contracted more than half of his film male lead. No.
The movie uses jumping fright and atmospheric horror, which makes people sigh. There is finally a decent horror movie in the United States. There are not many scenes of demons in the film, and they always scare you inadvertently, and I found that the dialogue between the characters is very small, which makes you want to hear clearly, and then suddenly the volume of the horror sound effects doubles to make your heart beat faster, which is like being alone in the dead of night. When I was watching the drama, I accidentally pressed the volume to increase the volume, and no matter how calm people were, they would not be calm in an instant. Think about what kind of characters they made in a movie of the level of Chainsaw Horror, just a few floor sounds, a few The black lens can scare the audience a lot. The director's use of the lens is also god-level. The advancing switching of scenes and the constant change of perspective make the horror atmosphere of the whole film more and more intense. There is also a reversal at the end of the film, and it also contains suspense in addition to the shock. It is really worthwhile. A horror movie to watch.
The director's other film, Dead Silence, is relatively successful, but the buried thread treatment is not hidden enough, and it is easy to be seen through, so it feels slightly worse than the Conjuring series.
