Hollywood has certainly hit the valley of the dolls lately
two years ago, and now has a completely new cast to terrorize. The filmmakers — notably James Wan, who produces this one with Peter Safran — have merged the doll with the key players from the originalmovies, Ed and Lorraine Warren , but relegated them mostly to slightly larger than cameo supporting roles this time.
As we see right from the beginning on their road trip back home with Annabelle sitting in the back seat, things just always seem to go awry whenever she’s around. Fortunately they get her home before she can do too much damage other than summoning the dead from a cemetery near where the Warrens’ car breaks down . They lock her up in a glass-walled case, blessed by a priest and featuring a display with a sign that says “Warning.
Cue the Warrens’ exit as the film is then essentially handed over to the teen set, with Mary Ellen bringing along her friend Daniela to help babysit 10-year-old Judy Warren , whose birthday they will be celebrating a little early. The young Warren knows better than to violate her parents’ warnings, but Daniela has other ideas as she is determined to mine the home for the opportunity to somehow connect with the ghost of her dead father.
