Paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren encounter what would become one of the most sensational cases from their files. The fight for the soul of a young boy takes them beyond anything they'd ever seen before, to mark the first time in U.S. History that a murder suspect would claim demonic possession as a defense. Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson lead a cast that never lets the mystery feel thin. It was released in 2021. What makes The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It hold up is that the resolution matters less than how the characters get there. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.
