The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It

The Devil Made Me Watch It.

An inferior followup to the earlier Conjuring movies, this third installment does feature the Warrens again but the case is not as interesting as it sounds. Based off the media circus surrounding a murder suspect claiming demonic possession (yes true story), the movie tries to shake things up by being a trial movie with elements of a police procedural that happens to feature exorcism. That's not bad on paper but the director Michael Chaves is not capable to make it interesting. There's a noticeable reliance on jump scares and the pacing seems off. Like there's scenes cut or missing. Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson are as watchable as ever as Lorraine and Ed Warren and they still have good chemistry together. And the backstory is still pretty interesting. You just wish the movie was better.
