Movie Review: The Conjuring..manages to summon quite a few spooks



What spooks one about horror is not the sudden bangs and loud noises but the slower stuff – the focusing on a single frame, the camera slowly moving in, the slow build-up, that heart-in-the-mouth feeling over the unexpected that is about to unfold next and then the sudden..well, you get the point. With The Conjuring you get treated to exactly that..that is, at least for a while

Chances are that you would have seen this rare decent horror flick by now. If you still haven’t – a word of advice. Don’t see any trailers. While the trailer itself is sufficient to spook you it definitely spoils the fun for you in the hall. If, however, you would like to meet with as little surprises in the dreary emptiness of a dark hall with a large screen – then, by all means, see the trailers first. Bear in mind though, that if you do, then the first half of this movie would become a rather less eventful affair

The start of the movie is just apt with everything happy and hunky dory. There is a sense of gradation to the horror and as the family on screen becomes apprehensive, cautious, tentative and completely terrified in stages, so do you as the audience. Couldn’t have been better

However, as the movie builds, particularly in what would be the second half, it seems to teeter dangerously on the brink of relapsing into the stereotype till it simply falls in – giving an over-dramatized finale all screams and ghouls intact. Thankfully this part is a pretty short end to an otherwise well-presented and sufficiently horrifying horror flick. The fact that it is supposed to be actually based on a true story only adds to the terror. There is an underlying sense of dread to every scene and you are worried about what might just unfold next. All the credit to the director for accomplishing that

The acting is also solid as each one including the five kids put in a good show. Lili Taylor as Carolyn Perron (am pretty sure you’d be googling that name once you’ve seen this flick) and Vera Farmiga as Lorraine Warren have the most meaty roles and are particularly effective

In summary then, there is every reason I’d say you give The Conjuring a visit and see what it manages to summon off you
