"The Conjuring" is hands-down the best horror movie of the 21st century. Sure, it uses the most stereotypical plot in horror history with a family moving into a new house that's old, creepy, and in a woodland area and the ghosts of murdered people haunt them, but with amazing camerawork and direction by James Wan, it still feels fresh.

One of the best things about this movie is, I saw almost every single jumpscare coming, but it still managed to get me every time. The tension and suspense is built up perfectly to a great scare. Also, there are some old school, edge of your seat creepy scenes in it too that send chills down the spine.

This blend of modern-era horrors and old cliché scares refined to perfection makes this my personal favorite horror movie, and the only horror movie to ever actually scare me.
