**Little SPOILER AHEAD**
As a spin-off of The Conjuring, it was decently made with 70s set up. There were even some effective, good jump scares BUT the first disappointment was as a 'Evil Doll flick', the doll here actually gets very little chance to produce creepy stuffs from its part. Here the more active antagonist was the evil spirit that possessed the doll and to some extent it actually bothers or cares very less about the doll & thus uses it not very often for most of the demonic activity. And then before the final climax, even the Devil himself takes the center stage for terror.
Overall, it wasn't bad but the most disappointing part was the lame ending! while may be mainly because of the 70s vibe & that apartment building, I was expecting more of a Rosemary's Baby sort of twisted finale!

>>: B

That's encouraging.
