The CinePearl Take
The film shines most when Lorraine Warren (Madison Wolfe) confronts the unseen, delivering a performance that balances skepticism with raw vulnerability. Wan’s pacing—slow, atmospheric buildup punctuated by sudden, brutal jolts—keeps tension taut throughout. Thematically, it explores how trauma can echo across generations, making the hauntings feel as much psychological as paranormal. While the climax leans into familiar jump‑scare territory, the meticulous set‑design and sound design elevate the terror to a level that feels fresh.
