The movie doesn't expand the universe at all. Poor acting all around, the plot drags for over an hour before anything happens- which when it does, isn't much.
Very predictable with a few cheap jump scares.
My wife and I found ourselves scrolling on our phones halfway through since we were so bored with the movie.
No one was in any real danger and the characters spend the majority of the movie slowly looking around for nothing to happen- or something underwhelming if it does happen.
Seems like the Annabelle demon got a serious nerf sitting in that glass case for a year. He went from obliterating his victims from across the room to barely being able to fight a couple teenagers.
Disappointing addition to the series.
