A good movie

Since I enjoyed ‘The Conjuring’, I was quite eager to check this sequel. Well, to be honest, I have to admit that I was actually quite impressed by this flick. Indeed, horror sequels are notoriously bad but  this one was actually really good, in fact, I think I liked it even more than its predecessor. First of all, even if the whole thing was nothing really groundbreaking, it was actually quite spooky with some rather basic but very effective scary moments. Furthermore, the fact that the victims were some young children made the whole thing ever more thrightening. Finally, James Wan managed here to mix one of the most notorious ‘real’ case of paranormal activities with some good old fiction and I was amazed by how effective this mix was. One of the best assets of ‘The Conjuring’ was also the vintage look and feel and it was obviously back with this sequel  and even though Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga didn’t look anything like the Warrens, they were again so charismatic and they had again such a nice chemistry together. To be honest, I don’t think that the intro with the famous Amityville house was a good idea as it felt superfluous and the Enfield Haunting did provide plenty of material already. Anyway, to conclude, even if it was maybe not a masterpiece, I really enjoyed the damned thing, it was easily the best horror flick I have seen in a very long time and it is definitely worth a look.
