The script, by Gary Dauberman, is a cliched mess, lacking humor and surprises. But Leonetti stages some fright-worthy sequences ...

What about this movie is supposed to scare us?
Wesley Morris, Grantland
Rotten
What we mostly get in Annabelle is what we've gotten from so many other horror films: creaking floors, funky white-robed figures, home appliances that go off on their own, mysterious writing that shows up in mysterious places.
Bilge Ebiri, New York Magazine/Vulture

Annabelle, an effective prequel to horror pastiche The Conjuring, surpasses its predecessor simply by virtue of occasionally being scary.
