8 sourcesSynopsis
Determined to keep Annabelle from wreaking more havoc, demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren bring the possessed doll to the locked artifacts room in their home, placing her “safely” behind sacred glass and enlisting a priest’s holy blessing. But an unholy night of horror awaits as Annabelle awakens the evil spirits in the room, who all set their sights on a new target—the Warrens' ten-year-old daughter, Judy, and her friends.
What resonated with audiences
'Annabelle Comes Home' offers entertaining scares and strong performances, particularly from McKenna Grace, Madison Iseman, and Katie Sarife. The film is lauded for its Gothic atmosphere and stylish photography. However, criticisms arise for its reliance on clichés, weak storyline, and predictable scares. The limited screen time for Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga is disappointing, and some feel it falls short of earlier Conjuring Universe films.
