The Conjuring Universe has always given horror fans chills, and it's back with its latest installment, The Nun 2, hitting theaters on September 8. This sequel continues the chilling storyline introduced in the 2018 film The Nun, a spin-off of the main Conjuring series. Directed by Micheal Chaves, the film picks up where its predecessor left off.
The Nun featured a chilling battle against evil in a mysterious gothic setting, and The Nun 2 continues the narrative seamlessly. The cast includes Storm Reid, Jonas Blockt, Anna Popplewell and Katelyn Rose Downey, with Reid playing a young woman possessed by Valak.
The first reviews of The Nun 2 are out now and those who have seen it seem to be completely impressed. Some hail it as the scariest installment in the Conjuring Universe, while others are confident it will exceed the horror expectations of the first film.
Leading industry figures took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the film. One review states: “The Nun 2 is infinitely better than the first film. It's scarier and much more intense. This is what I wanted from the first one, which was too heavy and full of history. Now we can have fun with this terrifying villain. Stick around for the mid-credits scene!
Another tweet reads: “#nun2 is a good fun spooky time at the theater. The cast is solid and the visuals are dark and moody. "I feel shivers of happiness every time I see the nun appear on the screen." It is described as a master class in sound, lighting, perspective and rhythm that will elevate audience anxiety to the max.
One review praises: “I'm happy to say that #Nun2 is a huge improvement over the first movie. Bigger, better and scarier, with a much stronger story. Potentially breaks some Conjuration canon. But I had a great time! One of my favorites from the #Conjuring series so far! -Mike M.
The film is hailed as a must-see and lives up to the hype surrounding its scares. One review says: “#TheNun2 is a fun ride! While we're still in the world of religious lore, the movie is packed with more fun and scares. The ending is satisfying and the mid-credits scene makes it all worth it. Definitely go see it."
Another review points out an interesting trend in Conjuring Universe where sequels tend to outshine their predecessors: “An interesting trend that applies to Conjuring Universe: sequels tend to be better than the originals. The Conjuring 2 is better than The Conjuring; Both Annabelle: Creation and Annabelle Comes Home are better than Annabelle, and now I can confirm that The Nun 2 is better than The Nun."
The film's characters also receive praise, with one review noting: “#thenun2 is a super solid horror sequel. It has two good stories that intersect in a fantastic third act, which surprises until it loses focus a bit right at the end. "That misstep aside, it has incredible chilling effects, and Sister Irene is rightfully a legend."
It looks like horror fans are in for a terrifying treat based on these rave reviews. The Nun 2 joins The Conjuring Universe, which began in 2013 and features films inspired by real-life cases investigated by paranormal duo Ed and Lorraine Warren.
The Conjuring Universe features hits like Annabelle, The Nun, and The Conjuring, some of which have been huge box office hits.
