Horror

It's pretty concerning. The Warrens were monster people who made a living on exploiting as many people as they could and hated each other the entire goddamn time. Rights to their stories requires that they are portrayed as a kind, loving couple. I've only seen the first 2.5 of these movies and was appalled by the blatant Christian propaganda; they play on the same performativity that the Warrens did and apparently that scam still works. Except, these movies are reaching more people than the Warrens did and unfortunately validate a lot of harmful ideas within.

Also, like, production wise, they're just cheap and uninspired without any original quality. They're just loud, mean, and consumable movies. A good example of why we shouldn't use the capital produced by movies to judge what is successful or not.
