It’s “Adventures in Babysitting” evil possession style in this third Annabelle installment within the Conjuring Universe. Demonologists Ed & Lorraine Warren (Patrick Wilson & Vera Farmiga) obtain the possessed doll Annabelle & bring it home to be secured in their artifacts room of evil objects. What could go wrong? A year later, when they have to leave town, they hire a babysitter, Mary Ellen, to watch over their 10-year-old daughter, Judy. But Mary Ellen’s reckless “Nosy Nancy” friend, Daniela, has to open Pandora’s Box & enter the forbidden room. The film is good for some cheap thrills, jump scares, & fake scares, but it’s not very scary. Three teens & a kid get terrorized for a night, try to get Annabelle back in her special glass case before mom & dad get home, & pretend nothing happened. At the end, a family photo of the actual Warren family reminds us this film is based of real people & their unusual occupation.
Alien gives it 2½ “miss me?” stars out of 4.
