This is no Conjuring but it does have its moments. The prequel starts with a story about a happy couple who are expecting their first child. The husband gifts the famous Annabelle doll to his wife and things slowly start getting worse. There are many attempts to scare you but they are the ones that we have already witnessed several times and so there is nothing new to get scared. The plot also lacks the fizz and hence you feel like you are watching a romantic movie with a few thrills. A couple of scenes are indeed scary but thats not enough for a film which claims to be the start of Conjuring.
