The Conjuring (2013, James Wan)

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🏠👻🕵️🕵️‍♀️😐 The grand tradition of the haunted house, and this time it’s apparently an entire cinematic universe. Seems to be a more spiritualistic version of The X-Files. Nobody ever listens to the dog. The only thing that really distinguishes these movies from one another is the characters, and this family and these investigators are pretty flat Midwesterners. I mean you’d think a married couple of traveling paranormal investigating lecturers would be riveting, but they have all the personality of patent attorneys. Otherwise it goes down the list of required haunted house scenes and checks all the boxes. Easy for the mind to wander. (Max.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Conjuring
