Five years ago “The Nun” came out. It was a gothic supernatural horror film that served as a spin-off/prequel to the popular The Conjuring movies. “The Nun” was loaded with potential but unfortunately never quite lived up to it. Warner Bros. is taking another swing at it with “The Nun II” and I’m actually happy about it. All the pieces are there for a really good chiller and the first trailer certainly looks promising.
Two of the biggest things that work in the movie’s favor are its star, Taissa Farmiga and its terrifying antagonist, Valak. Farmiga (the younger sister of The Conjuring star Vera Farmiga) reprises her role of Sister Irene in a great bit of meta casting. Meanwhile Bonnie Aarons plays Valak, the truly horrifying titular presence. Again they are two are great pieces. They only need a worthwhile story that utilizes them well. That’s something the first film struggled with. Hopefully this one has it covered.
“The Nun II” hits theaters September 8, 2023. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.
Keith & the Movies 
I saw this yesterday and it looks interesting. I don’t know if I’ll see it as I haven’t seen the first one but I do like Taissa Farmiga.
The first one didn’t leave much of an impression outside of Farmiga. I am planning on seeing it again before this one comes out.
I’m not much of a horror fan, but I did like the character in The Conjuring 2 and The Nun. Quite looking foward to seeing this movie.
The trailer is pretty well done and I’m pretty excited for it too.
Nope!
HeHeHeHe.
