Annabelle Comes Home
Writer/director Gary Dauberman unveils the new cast of sinister specters he conjured up for the latest installment of the Annabelle film series.,(at around 50 mins) The real Annabelle is at the Warrens' Occult Museum in Monroe, Connecticut, kept in a glass case with warning signs. Unlike the doll in the film, it is a Raggedy Ann doll. In one scene, Judy is watching a game show when a couple win a trip to Vegas and a Raggedy Ann doll. This is a nod to the real Annabelle.,Badfinger's "Day After Day" is on side two of the "Straight Up" album, so the label should show a cut/halved apple. The record on the turntable shows a green, whole apple, indicating that side one is playing.,Lorraine Warren: There is a lot of evil in this room. But you know what I actually like about it? All the evil in here reminds me of all the good that's out there.,The end credits start with a dedication to the real-life Lorraine Warren, who died shortly before this film's release.,Featured in Chris Stuckmann Movie Reviews: Annabelle Comes Home (2019),Band of Gold

It was good as a prop in the very first movie, but started to dwindle fast when they made it into a spin-off movie series with the doll.

Still, I have seen the movies, solely because I have had the chance, and because I do enjoy horror movies.

However, this 2019 movie "Annabelle Comes Home" was boring. Yeah, let's just be blatantly and brutally honest. This movie was mediocre at best. It didn't take long before I started to lose interest in the movie and had my phone out instead. The storyline was so simplistic and straightforward that even a dead person could keep up here. There were no surprises along the way, and director used every page of 'how-to-make-a-generic-horror-movie' to the fullest.

The acting in the movie was good, just a shame that the actresses and actors had so very little to work with. And mind you, the movie is not circling around Ed and Lorraine Warren, but instead focuses on their daughter and her babysitter. Just a heads up, in case you were expecting a movie with Ed and Lorraine.

There were absolutely no scares throughout the course of "Annabelle Comes Home" for a seasoned horror veteran such as myself. Perhaps if this is your first horror movie, you'll find it scary. Otherwise, you have to look long and hard for anything of the sort.

A visually nice movie, but boring and generic in terms of entertainment. I am rating "Annabelle Comes Home" a mere, but very generic and mediocre, of five out of ten stars.,
