Here’sThe Conjuring 2featurette from Warner Bros. Pictures:
The Conjuring 2 trailers we’ve seen have featured the recordings of the deep, raspy voice of the possessed little girl at the center of this investigation, but that’s nothing new in movies like this. However, what’s truly creepy and unsettling is hearing the real recordings from this particular case. It certainly adds some credence to these movies being based on a true story, even if plenty is exaggerated for the sake of entertainment. Plus, the talking heads really make me want to see a documentary on the matter as opposed to just a dramatic reenactment by way of Hollywood.
In addition to the return ofPatrick WilsonandVera Farmigaas Ed and Lorraine Warren, the case also includesFrances O’Connor(The Missing) as the single mom, withMadison Wolfe(Zoo) and newcomersLauren Esposito,Patrick McAuleyandBenjamin Haighas her children;Maria Doyle Kennedy(Orphan Black);Simon Delaney(Roy);Franka Potente(The Bridge); andSimon McBurney(Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation).
