A movie that exemplifies the golden standards of the haunted house formula and escalates them to something rather rousing.

In The Conjuring, the scary casts out the spirit of the silly, permanently, and with a vengeance.

The Conjuring is a memorably spooky event; a campfire tale told with a breathless adamancy that stirs the hackles and attacks the imagination.

By all means, feel free to initially underrate this finely crafted and genuinely scary production. Making such a mistake will only serve to leave you more impressed (and slightly rattled) than you might have been.

An old-fashioned haunted house horror story made by people who love them. Classy, creepy, fun.
