Conjuring: The Last Rite Review – A Weak Family Drama Disguised as Horror
The Conjuring universe has always been celebrated for spine-chilling moments and strong supernatural storytelling. Sadly, Conjuring: The Last Rite fails to deliver on both fronts.
Storyline & Execution
Instead of maintaining the eerie, tension-filled atmosphere that fans expect, the film feels more like a family drama than a horror thriller. The plot drags without building real suspense, leaving audiences confused about whether they came for scares or melodrama.
Ghost Presence & Horror Elements
Shockingly, the ghost — the very soul of a Conjuring film — gets barely 15–20 minutes of screen time. The horror sequences are generic, predictable, and lack the signature fear factor that made earlier parts unforgettable.
Screenplay & Dialogues
The screenplay is weak and poorly executed, while dialogues lack the haunting depth of the franchise’s past. The result is a dull narrative that never quite grips the audience.
Rating
⭐ 6/10
For die-hard Conjuring fans, this will feel like the most disappointing entry in the Anabelle–Conjuring universe. What was expected to be a terrifying chapter turns out to be a misstep — the most disgusting movie of the franchise so far.
