The Nun II 2023

★★

Watched 20 Jan 2024

Chaves sure had a bigger purse allowed for much more special effects, including Maurice's possession, an unexpected goat demon with gnarly curling horns, plenty of Valak with its bright eyes and wicked smile popping up using the shadows, imprints in structures and even magazines, and roach-covered Madame Laurent reaching for the head of a bullying girl always picking on sweet Sophie, whose mom is a teacher at the boarding school where "the eyes of Saint Lucy" are hidden within a relic buried, located through the "red eye" of a goat added to a stained glass in a condemned chapel. Lots of big time sound design especially in creaking doors, crawling roaches, and enhancing the echoes of buildings that should be otherwise silent.

But I'd be remiss to not admit that I was fighting off droopy eyes and a mind pleading with me to wander. The cast sure doesn't seem all that excited to be in the film and the plot sorta kinda drags Taissa back as the nun with a family ancestry that comes in handy.
