The Conjuring 2.

Wan's another swing at this supernatural world is short on thrills and humane emotions and more on the glory of the dark gloomy skin. And armed with that thought in mind, Wan has somehow managed to shuck out the heat from the shady spirits hovering in the house. The structure of the script is familiar, in fact it is arguable a mirror to its predecessor. And just like its first installment, the first half of the act survives upon the smart tricks of Wan's that builds up to the complete breakdown of the haunted family, cornering themselves for desperate measures. But in here unlike the first one, their barely resides an innovating trick for you to be enchanted upon- a little boy playing with his toy is slick though- but what grabs your attention this time is Wan's brilliant camera work that moves with ferocious pace and sensational eye popping perspective that does scare you.

And as far as the other half is concerned, the plot being more personal and emotionally driven for the lead characters, somehow seems physically distant to the case. The perfect host they were in the previous one by being the perfect guest, there is an empty void on that section that no performance could fill in. Speaking of which, as far as Wilson is concerned on being the noble caring protagonist, he is walking the thin line with confidence.

But once again, Farmiga soars above for her underdog character that is brilliantly fabricated as a three dimensional humane character. What is persistently absorbing about this franchise is its malleable mythical tale that it never holds back to dive deep into and plus, this time the procedure it adapts to narrate the case is immensely impressive. The Conjuring 2 is Wan stepping on to his shoes after a long while, just with the lens of superficial eyes.
