Conjuring: The Beyond

What an insult to the Conjuring franchise. A bunch of acting noobs let loose on a dreadful script. The "horror" is laughable but the acting, editing, and effects are horrific.

This is a cookie cutter script but the name recognition drags you in, unfortunately. A small budget doesn't need to be a barrier to a good movie but that's not the case here. At least the cinematography isn't bad. It does look like a more expensive movie; good colour saturation, nice focus, good angles. I really can't be angry about that aspect. Everything is "zum kotzen".

Who greenlit this? Who cast it? Who watched it?

Don't know, if the director was on his phone while shooting or something went wrong in editing, but this movie has far to long scenes.

It starts off with a mildly creepy scene, but after that it becomes hard to watch. Maybe they wanted to build suspense or something, but it just doesn't work well, if almost every scene feels to long. The viewer shouldn't notice the cuts, but in this case, the missing cuts are very noticable.

I watched this to fall asleep, so I won't complain to much. For that it worked well. This should be the end of my review, but since they require more characters, I'll keep going for a bit. This is also very fitting for this movie.

So I'm 30 minutes into the movie and besides the terribly boring and bad 10 minute intro discussion between some girl and someone you assume to be a family member, maybe a father? I don't know, it wasn't explained and wasn't clear. But nothing has happened so far.

I gave it another 10 minutes and still nothing interesting has happened. It's all just been talking about the sleep study they're supposed to be doing, but literally NOTHING has happened. Just people sitting around talking to each other. Insanely slow and I have to wonder if the positive reviews are confusing this movie with a different Conjuring movie since there are multiple, but this is not affiliated with that movie.

I can't keep going... it's just so incredibly boring. If nothing happens in the first 40 minutes of your film, you're doing something wrong. Save yourself an hour and a half and pick a different movie.

I am a die hard horror fan. I watch nothing but scary stuff. And i liked the conjuring movies. I wouldn't consider them scary. But, no complaints. But this, this awful movie. I was so hopeful. But i could barely sit through this. The acting was awful and the story was awful. Nightmares and sleep paralysis are a real part of my life every night when i sleep due to my own mental problems and it was so hard to watch this movie. I wanted to turn it off many times and I didn't, only because i paid a few bucks to watch it. Don't waste your money. I actually signed up and made an account just to post this. Don't watch.

Wow - just - wow ! (And I'm not saying that in a good way / or positive way )

The only thing that was scary or horrendous- was just EVERYTHING- and I say that - to warn all of you :

Do not waste your time with this poor excuse of a movie.

Do not waste your money with this garbage excuse of a movie.

I cannot even comment on the acting in this -because I think i could have walked outside- and waved a five dollar bill- and found anyone to "act out any scene with the results being " Oscar worthy " compared to the stiff horribleness " that I sat through as I tried to find any good positive thing to say about this.
