The Conjuring Last Rites Review: A decent end to everyone’s favourite horror franchise

The story is average, not too engaging, but not completely forgettable either. It follows the usual supernatural thriller formula, with familiar themes of fear, faith, and paranormal activity. While the plot lacks the sharp twists and edge-of-the-seat suspense seen in earlier parts, it offers a decent storyline that keeps viewers watching until the end.

What stood out most was the ending. The flashback that ties together all parts of The Conjuring series gives fans a sense of closure. It’s emotional, nostalgic, and beautifully wraps up the story, making it a rewarding experience for long-time followers.

My Review:

The movie was good, but didn’t pack as much horror punch as The Conjuring Part 1. The story was neither outstanding nor weak just okay. However, the ending, with its flashback and connection to the earlier parts, was impressive and added a meaningful touch.

My rating for this film is ★★★☆☆.

What Works:

The experience is elevated by great atmospheric visuals and sound effects that fully immerse you in the world.

The series concludes with an emotional ending that beautifully ties together all the storylines, leaving a lasting impact on the audience.

The cast delivers good performances, bringing depth and authenticity to their characters throughout the series.

Fans of the series will appreciate the nostalgic flashbacks that revisit key moments and deepen their connection to the story.

What Could Be Better:

The sequel isn’t as scary or intense as the first part, offering a more subdued and lighter experience.

The plot felt predictable and lacked the unexpected twists and surprises that would have made the story more engaging.

While engaging, the film could have delved deeper into new storylines to make the narrative more compelling.

 Final Thoughts:

The Conjuring: Last Rites Part may not be the scariest entry in the franchise, but it’s a decent supernatural thriller with a touching conclusion. If you love ghost stories, enjoy atmospheric horror, and want to see how this saga ends, it’s worth a watch. Just don’t expect it to be as terrifying as the original.

Final Rating: ★★★☆☆
A decent horror film that offers nostalgia and closure but lacks the intensity of its predecessors.
