The Conjuring movies have been some of the best the horror genre has had to offer since the franchise began in 2013. With Ed (Patrick Wilson) and Lorraine Warren (Vera Farmiga), the supernatural stories have had a grounding element. We’ve watched their relationship through the trials and tribulations their cases have brought. With The Conjuring: Last Rites, the couple’s daughter, Judy (Mia Tomlinson), joins their case — one that began before she was born.

Michael Chaves returns to direct Last Rites after The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It. His ability to genuinely scare and build tension throughout is excellent. We’re riveted from the first moment, which sees Ed and Lorraine working a case in 1964. It involves a mirror that, upon first glance, is nothing suspicious. Lorraine is pregnant with Judy, and a direct interaction with the mirror leads her to give birth early. Judy is stillborn for a minute, and it’s heartwrenching to watch.
