The attention to detail through design, the cinematography, and the film score makes the movie look and feels very much retro, and the effort with it, is paid-off. I think this third Annabelle movie was trying to keep the cycle of Conjuverse going, and somehow, it successfully did. You guys is Annabelle Comes Home the closes thing we've got to a second good movie?. Oh my God I think it actually is this one.

What's the next best entry? The crème de la compètènt? It's. Conjuring 2 is the good one and everything else ranges from 'alright' to 'dumpster fire', and the first Annabelle is firmly at the bottom of that dumpster fire. The only entry I've given a favourable review ('favourable' here meaning 'more than a 5 outta 10') iissss *dramatic pause* THIS O- no I'm kidding it's Conjuring 2. The franchise as a whole is okay, but not only is has something better come out post-The Conjuring, furthermore, I'm gonna go ahead and say that the first Conjuring movie isn't even really that good. Lots of people say that the whole Conjuring franchise is a cool thing, but nothing has come close to the quality of that first The Conjuring movie.

But that second one came off the back of the first Annabelle movie. I was a little less worried about a third Annabelle movie than I was the second one, because, well this came off the back of that second one, and that second one was okay.
