Annabelle Comes Hom is the third film in the Annabelle film spin-offs from the Conjuring film series. This film is directed and partly written by Gary Dauberman. This is only the first film he has directed. He has also written several scripts from other horror films from the Conjuring film series.

In the film, Paranormal researchers Ed (Patrick Wilson) and Lorraine Warren (Vera Farmiga) have placed the possessed Annabelle doll closed in their artifact space, where the doll, together with other demonic objects, can no longer harm the world. When the Warrens have to leave their home and leave their daughter Judy (McKenna Grace) and the demonic room safe with the nanny Mary Ellen (Madison Iseman), the Annabelle doll seems to attract many demonic forces. Judy, Mary and Mary her friend are so in the witty presence of demonic beings, who are looking for a soul or a demonic object with which they can connect, in order to harm humanity again. The girls have to stay in control of the demons and keep them in the house until the Warrens return.

That this is only Gary Dauberman's first work as a director is fortunately not reflected in how the film was portrayed. He has created a good horror atmosphere and furthermore portrayed the horror moments well. Many moments unfortunately seem familiar. It seems that Gary Dauberman has focused a lot on directing the film, but seems to have forgotten to come up with an original story for the film. Many horror moments from this film often simply resemble some custom copied moments from other horror films. Even from horror films in which Gary Dauberman himself co-wrote the film scripts. Many horror moments in this film are placed in the story as well as not too original, because usually they only build up after a loud jump scare without any further real meaning.

The entire film is almost entirely set in a location in the house of the Warrens, where various demons and evil spirits try to do something to the girls. Many of these quay creatures have been put forward in the film with beautiful costumes and make-up effects, but apart from a few simple jump scares you don't get to know much about them. This movie looks like you are walking through a haunted house just like the characters. It almost seems as if with this film they are trying to introduce the various evil creatures to the viewers in order to make their own spin-off film in the future for the Conjuring film series.

The acting in the film is well done, but the bad script makes the characters in the film a bit stupid about making cliché mistakes that stupid characters often make in a horror film, so that you as a viewer don't really care about them. The larger cast members Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson have more of a cameo in this film.
