The Conjuring: Last Rites had me all over the place. Pacing issues took me out of it at times but it offers up enough effective chills, particularly during its climax, that work. In the end, it's the characters that shine & make it a worthy final entry. #TheConjuringLastRites pic.twitter.com/X0U9bovJpo

Felt more like a prayer than a horror film. Predictable jump scares, not enough dread… in summary: a worthy curtain call, but not the finale I hoped for. 6/10 pic.twitter.com/R3murvC1sQ
#TheConjuringLastRites feels like a heartfelt tribute to fans and the entire franchise. It honors everything that made these films so iconic while delivering a haunting finale. If this is the end, it's a perfect farewell. If not, we're ready for what's next. pic.twitter.com/x5muFAT9yh

Surprisingly, The Conjuring: Last Rites is less about the Smurl haunting and more about Ed & Lorraine. It's a slow burn, but once it kicks in, there are solid scares, strong emotion, and a real sense of finality. A heartfelt, worthy sendoff for our favourite horror couple ❤️ pic.twitter.com/wPDd5j0JwK

#TheConjuringLastRites is a perfectly satisfying conclusion to this chapter of the franchise — not the best of the 4 & not the worst, but there are plenty of “oh fuck” scares, amazing design work for the spookies, and ofc amazing heart & performances from Vera & Patrick. pic.twitter.com/hmvcqsyBzn

Whole plot & storyline is TOP TIER HORROR
and if you'll think of it, the LAST RITES they're referring to isn't even about their last encounter, but about THAT ONE scene 🥹👰♀🤵💍👀#TheConjuring #TheConjuringLastRites pic.twitter.com/yl3zaEP0Nz
