The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It
Paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren encounter what would become one of the most sensational cases from their files. The fight for the soul of a young boy takes them beyond anything they'd ever seen before, to mark the first time in U.S. history that a murder suspect would claim demonic possession as a defense.
The film centers on demonic possession, supernatural threat, and horror imagery as its core driver; investigation and legal elements exist but are in service of a fear-driven, atmospheric horror experience. Removing horror would alter the fundamental identity.
Best for viewers looking for a scary, atmosphere-heavy and psychological horror movie.
