The Conjuring is a 2013 American supernatural horror film directed by James Wan.[4] The film, starring Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson as Ed and Lorraine Warren, is based on a true story,[5] and follows paranormal investigators who come to the assistance of the Perron family (Ron Livingston and Lili Taylor), who are experiencing increasingly disturbing events in their farmhouse in Harrisville, Rhode Island in 1971.[6]

The Conjuring was released in the United States and Canada on July 19, 2013, and in the United Kingdom and India on August 2, 2013.

Plot

In 1971, Carolyn and Roger Perron move into a dilapidated old farmhouse in Harrisville, Rhode Island with their five daughters. During the first day, the family moves in smoothly, though the dog refuses to come into the house and one of the daughters finds a boarded up entrance to a cellar.

The next morning, Carolyn wakes up with a mysterious bruise and the dog is found dead. Over the next several days, various instances of paranormal activity occur. The activity culminates one night while Roger is away in Florida, as Carolyn is locked in the cellar while a spirit that looks like an elderly woman attacks one of her daughters.

Carolyn contacts noted paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren for help. The Warrens conduct an initial investigation and conclude that the house may require an exorcism, though this cannot be done without further evidence and authorization from the Catholic Church.

While researching the house's history, Ed and Lorraine discover that the house once belonged to an accused witch, Bathsheba, who tried to sacrifice her children to the devil and killed herself after cursing all who would take her land. The property was once 200+ acres but has since been divided up into smaller parcels. They find reports of numerous murders and suicides in houses that have since been built upon parcels that were once part of the property.

Ed and Lorraine return to the house in an attempt to gather evidence to receive authorization for an exorcism. One of the daughters sleepwalks into her sister's room and reveals a secret passage behind a wardrobe. Lorraine enters the passage and falls through the floorboards into the cellar, where she sees the spirits of people whom Bathsheba has possessed. All are mothers whom Bathsheba used to kill their children. Another of the Perron children is violently attacked and dragged along the floor by an unseen force.

Lorraine and Ed take their evidence to the Church to organize an exorcism while the Perron family takes refuge at a hotel. Ed and Lorraine's daughter is attacked in their own home by the spirits from the Perron house.

Carolyn, who was earlier possessed by the spirit of Bathsheba, takes two of her daughters, Christine and April, and drives back to the house. Ed, Lorraine, two of their assistants and Roger rush to the house where they find Carolyn trying to stab Christine. After subduing Carolyn, Ed decides to perform the exorcism himself, though Carolyn escapes and again attempts to kill her other daughter, April. Lorraine is able to temporarily distract the possessed Carolyn from killing her daughter by reminding her of a special memory she shared with her family, allowing Ed to complete the exorcism, saving Carolyn and her daughter.

Cast

Production

Development

Development of the film began over 20 years ago when Ed Warren played a tape of Warren's original interview with Carolyn Perron for producer Tony DeRosa-Grund.[7] DeRosa-Grund made a recording of Warren playing back the tape and of their subsequent discussion. At the end of the tape, Warren said to DeRosa-Grund, "If we can't make this into a film I don't know what we can." DeRosa-Grund then described his vision of the film for Ed.[8]

DeRosa-Grund wrote the original treatment and titled the project The Conjuring.[9] For nearly 14 years, he tried to get the movie made without any success. He landed a deal to make the movie at Gold Circle Films, the production company behind The Haunting in Connecticut, but a contract could not be finalized and the deal was dropped.[citation needed]

DeRosa-Grund allied with producer Peter Safran, and sibling writers Chad and Carey Hayes were brought on board to refine the script.[9] Using DeRosa-Grund's treatment and the Ed Warren tape, the Hayes brothers changed the story's point of view from the Perron family to the Warrens'. The brothers interviewed Lorraine Warren many times over the phone to clarify details.[10] By mid-2009, the property became the subject of a six-studio bidding war that landed the film at Summit Entertainment.[11] However, DeRosa-Grund and Summit could not conclude the transaction and the film went into turnaround. DeRosa-Grund reconnected with New Line Cinema, who had lost in the original bidding war but who ultimately picked up the film. On November 11, 2009, a deal was made between New Line and DeRosa-Grund's Evergreen Media Group.[12]

Pre-production

"When Insidious came out and was successful the story about the Warrens came to me and I was like, “Oh my god, this is really cool.” [...] But I didn’t just want to make another ghost story or another supernatural film. One thing I had never explored was the chance to tell a story that’s based on real-life characters, real-life people. So those were the things that led me to The Conjuring."

—James Wan, explaining his reason for directing The Conjuring.[13]

Pre-production began in early 2011, with reports surfacing in early June that James Wan was in talks to direct the film.[14] This was later confirmed by Warner Bros., who also stated that the film would be loosely based on real life events surrounding Ed and Lorraine Warren.[15] In January 2012, Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson were cast to star in the film.[16] That same month, Ron Livingston and Lili Taylor were also confirmed for roles in the film, which at that time was developing under the working title of The Untitled Warren Files Project.[17] The film's title was temporarily changed to The Warren Files based on a suggestion by Wan, but was later reverted to The Conjuring prior to the commencement of the film's marketing campaign.[18][19]

In preparation for their roles, Farmiga and Wilson traveled to Connecticut to spend time with Lorraine Warren,[20] who also visited the set during production.[21] Over the course of spending three days at the Warren home, both actors took in information that could not otherwise be achieved from secondary research. "I just wanted to absorb her essence. I wanted to see the details, she has such mad style. I just wanted to see — the way she communicates with her hands, these gestures, her smile, how she moves through space," said Farmiga on her observations of Warren.[22]

Production

Principal photography began in late February 2012.[23] Lasting for 38 days,[24] shooting took place primarily at EUE/Screen Gems Studios as well as other locations in and around Wilmington, North Carolina.[25] Filming also took place at the University of North Carolina Wilmington in March 2012 while the campus was on its spring break.[26] Diana Pasulka, professor of Religious Studies at UNC-Wilmington, was the chief religious consultant for the project.[27]After wrapping up in Wilmington on April 20, the film concluded its principal photography on April 26, 2012.[28] All scenes were shot in chronological order.[20]

The film was in post-production in August of the same year.[29] Around 20 to 30 minutes of footage was removed from the first cut of the film, which initially ran at about two hours in duration.[30] After positive test screenings, the final edit of the film was locked in December 2012 and awaited its summer release.[31]

Music

The musical score for The Conjuring was composed by Joseph Bishara, who previously collaborated with director James Wan on Insidious (2011). "James asked me early on about [The Conjuring] while the film was still coming together," explained Bishara on his involvement. "The studio and producers were very supportive in allowing him to bring along who he wanted, with many of his longtime crew from Insidious and even earlier returning."[32] Further into the development process, Wan offered Bishara the chance to act in the film, which he had previously done in Insidious. "We talked about music first and then James had mentioned that he might want me to play one of the entities in this. After reading the script it turned out it was Bathsheba," said Bishara.[33] Because of his early involvement, Bishara was given more time to work out the musical palette of the film. "For whatever reason I was hearing brass clustering as an early response to the material, a quiet shimmering flutter tongue effect, and it grew from there," said Bishara on his creative process.[34]

A soundtrack album for the film was released by La-La Land Records and WaterTower Music on July 16, 2013. In addition to Bishara's themes, the soundtrack also includes a track entitled "Family Theme" by composer Mark Isham.[35] Avant-garde musician Diamanda Galás also contributed to Bishara’s score,[36] performing raw vocal improvisation on top of the previously recorded brass instrumentation.[32]

Other songs featured in the film include:[37]

Distribution

Marketing

The first promotional images for The Conjuring were released in November 2012, introducing Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson as Ed and Lorraine Warren.[4] A teaser trailer, previously shown at the 2012 New York Comic Con, kicked off the film's marketing campaign in February 2013.[38] Throughout the campaign, the film was promoted heavily as "based on a true story." In the weeks leading up to the film's release, trailers and TV spots began to feature the real-life Perron family.[39][40] This was followed by a featurette entitled The Devil's Hour in which Lorraine Warren and other paranormal investigators explain some of the supernatural occurrences seen in the film.[41]

Theatrical release

Warner Bros. initially intended to release The Conjuring in early 2013, but decided on a summer release date after gaining a positive reception from test audiences.[42] The film was ultimately released on July 19 in North America, and in the United Kingdom and in India on August 2.[43][44] Because of this, it is one of the first horror films to receive a wide release in the United States during the months of June or July since 2006's The Omen.[45] A trailer and a clip from the film were shown at the 2012 New York Comic Con.[46][47] In March 2013, the film was given an R-rating by the MPAA for being what Wan described as "too adult."[21] "When we sent it [to the MPAA], they gave us the R-rating," said executive producer Walter Hamada. "When we asked them why, they basically said, 'It's just so scary. [There are] no specific scenes or tone you could take out to get it PG-13.'"[48]

The world premiere took place June 6, 2013, at the closing night of the first edition of Nocturna: Madrid International Fantastic Film Festival.[49] This was followed by two screenings of the film at the Los Angeles Film Festival on June 21 that also featured a Q&A segment with director James Wan.[50] A red carpet premiere was then held for the film on July 15, 2013 at Cinerama Dome in Los Angeles.[51][52]

Reception

Box office

Preliminary reports had the film tracking for a $30–$35 million debut in North America.[2][53][54] The film earned $3.3 million from its Thursday night showings,[55] and reached a $17 million 1.25-day total, doing slightly better than The Purge a month earlier.[56] The film went on to take $41.5 million during its opening weekend, breaking The Purge's previous record as the biggest opening for an original R-rated horror film.[57] While horror films usually drop at least 50 percent over their second weekend, The Conjuring only dropped 47 percent to $22.2 million.[58]

As of August 4, 2013, the film has grossed over $136,000,000 worldwide.[3]

Critical reception

The Conjuring has been met with very positive reviews from both critics and audiences alike.[59] Rotten Tomatoes sampled 142 reviewers and judged 87% of the reviews to be positive with an average score of 7.2 out of 10. Its consensus reads: "Extremely well-crafted and gleefully creepy, The Conjuring ratchets up the dread with a series of smartly delivered, terribly effective old-school scares."[60] Metacritic, another review aggregator, assigned the film a weighted average score of 69 (out of 100) based on 33 reviews from mainstream critics.[59] CinemaScore reported that audiences gave the film an A- grade.[61]

In her review following the Los Angeles Film Festival, Sheri Linden of The Hollywood Reporter said, "With its minimal use of digital effects, its strong, sympathetic performances and ace design work, the pic harks back in themes and methods to The Exorcist and The Amityville Horror, not quite attaining the poignancy and depth of the former but far exceeding the latter in sheer cinematic beauty."[36] Justin Chang of Variety gave the film a positive review, calling the film "a sensationally entertaining old-school freakout and one of the smartest, most viscerally effective thrillers in recent memory."[62] Additionally, Alonso Duralde of The Wrap also praised the effectiveness of the film, explaining that it "doesn't try to reinvent the tropes of horror movies, whether it's ghosts or demons or exorcisms, but Fred Astaire didn't invent tap-dancing, either."[63]

Chris Nashawaty of Entertainment Weekly gave the film an "A-", citing the effectiveness of "mood and sound effects for shocks that never feel cheap."[64] However, some critics reacted negatively to the film's similarities with films such as The Exorcist and Poltergeist.[65][66] IndieWire's Eric Kohn explained that "The Warrens may know how to handle demonic possessions, but The Conjuring suffers from a different invading force: the ghosts of familiarity."[67] AlchemistMagazine.net gave the film a 3 out of 5 stars, believing it to have suffered from fragmented plot elements in an otherwise exceptional horror experience, stating, "The anxiety [The Conjuring] induces is excruciating. The scariest film you'll ever see? That's debatable. I walked away feeling torn between believing I've watched a classic haunting, and over-hyped mediocrity."[68] Andrew O'Hehir of Salon said the film provided "all the scream-inducing shocks you could want, right on schedule", but thought the central conceit -- that the innocent women accused and executed in the Salem witch trials "actually were witches, who slaughtered children and pledged their love to Satan and everything!" -- was "reprehensible and inexcusable bullshit".[69]

Sequel

In June 2013, it was reported that New Line Cinema was already developing a sequel.[70] Both Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson are signed on to reprise their roles for an additional film.[71]
