Review.

O sweet a creepy doll movie, that's a prequel to the conjuring one of my favorite horror films, I mean what could go wrong. Holy crap was this the most disappointing horror movie I've seen since the nightmare on elm street remake and seed of Chucky.

This film revolves around a woman who is being haunted by the evil spirit of a woman named Annabelle that has possessed her doll and wishes to take her newborns soul.

It opens with the same opening as the conjuring and you can hear ED Warrens voice talking to a victim of the dolls evil deeds. The film then cuts to what supposedly happened before those events occurred before but I felt like their a lot of unanswered questions like how did they end up with the doll, the woman played terribly by Annabelle Wallis says it disappeared at the end so she could not have been the one to lock it up and leave it for her daughter.

The father named John who is portrayed even more terribly by Ward Horton doesn't serve diddly crap, he's just there can't act and I don't like him. The one plays the pries however I actually liked him, I don't know I guess I have weakness for priests in this kinds of movies.

The visuals are kind of cool, I mean there the best things about this movie, which can me kind of suspect that the director is only good with visuals and not storytelling cause the story just left me with questions that I would suspect answered in this movie. The one cool thing is when you see the doll movie cause man that is one ugly creepy looking doll.

The ending piste me off a bit cause it felt like the first three chucky movies but only with a baby and the doll not even almost succeeding or at least I don't think it was close to succeeding.

Annabelle is a film that I saw no trailers or commercials for cause I had high hopes but those hopes went down the drain but had some nice visuals so I'm giving Annabelle a two out of five.
