A huge fan of horror movies in general, since I was a kid, I've pretty much seen them all-from The Omen to the Shining, to George C Scott in the Changling, The Conjuring, etc. Annabelle: Creation was ridiculously disappointing. I will never understand why the writers think their audiences are such simpletons when it comes to horror. The story is so lame the movie is hard to watch. Sure, it has you scream or jump a few times, but for the most part the goriness seems misplaced and overdone to the absurd. As a horror junkie, the story is pretty awful. However, as a comedy it's not half bad.
