The Nun is the fifth installment in the conjuring universe, and it's an spinoff of The Conjuring 2. Settled in 1952, in Romania, a priest and a nun are sent to investigate a serious case of suicide in a church, where dark demons are awaiting them. Coming from The COnjuring 2, I was expecting a lot from this movie, but sadly it doesn't deliver. Though it can be scary at times, most of them are cheap jumpscares with no buildup whatsoever, and the scary atmosphere is non-existent. Also, the story can be confusing at times and sometimes there are scenes that don't go anywhere. The acting is really strong, especially from Taissa Farmiga, but in the other hand the characters are really underdeveloped and sometimes feel bland. Overall, you will enjoy this movie if you are just looking for a couple of scares and some laughs, but if you are expecting the quality of the previous movies in the Conjuring Universe you might not enjoy it.

Final Grade: C.
