Obviously, you don’t have to be from a Catholic background to find this scene from The Conjuring 2 totally creepy but it definitely helps.
I remember watching this scene in the theaters. As soon as Vera Farimga stepped into that room, I was like, “Uhmm …. see the painting? Uh, there’s a painting behind you. You might want to turn around and look at the painting….”
I really liked The Conjuring 2 and the first Conjuring as well. I even liked the Annabelle films. But one thing that I’ve always noticed about haunted house films is that nobody ever just turns on the lights. It always seems to me like so much trouble could be avoided just by turning on the lights in every room and leaving them on. Scary things only seem to happen in the dark.
Anyway, enough of my rambling! Here’s today’s scene:
Through the Shattered Lens 
I have all of those in my collection along with ones like: Lights Out, Mama, The Pact – those movies that try to scare you with story, atmosphere, characters you care about and not gore. It doesn’t bother me if a monster is tearing apart the actors but if some poor coed is chained down and being tortured to death by sharp implements, I generally tune off. I want to be scared, not grossed out.
