Why it’s HorroRated
The Conjuring Devil Made Me Do It moves the Warren universe out of the haunted house and into courtroom territory, which gives it a distinctive shape. Michael Chaves directs with competence if not with Wan's atmospheric control. The possession defense premise is the film's most interesting element and it earns reasonable development.
Synopsis
Michael Chaves directs the third Conjuring film with competence that can't replace James Wan's atmospheric control. The possession defense premise is the film's most interesting element and it earns reasonable development. A satisfying franchise entry that spends more time in the investigation than in the haunted house.
