Annabelle (2014)
John Form has found the perfect gift for his expectant wife, Mia -- a rare vintage doll in a pure white wedding dress. 
Soon after, their home is invaded by members of a satanic cult, but spilled blood and terror are not all they leave behind. The cultists have conjured an entity so malevolent that nothing they did will compare to the sinister conduit to the damned that is now...Annabelle.

    Storyline

    Edit
    John Form has found the perfect gift for his expectant wife, Mia - a beautiful, rare vintage doll in a pure white wedding dress. But Mia's delight with Annabelle doesn't last long. On one horrific night, their home is invaded by members of a satanic cult, who violently attack the couple. Spilled blood and terror are not all they leave behind. The cultists have conjured an entity so malevolent that nothing they did will compare to the sinister conduit to the damned that is now... Annabelle. —johntyler249

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The movie portrays the Annabelle doll as a porcelain doll, but the real Annabelle doll is a large "Raggedy Ann" doll. The Warrens had a special case built for Annabelle inside their Occult Museum, where she resides to this day.
    • Goofs
      (at around 34 mins) When Mia gives birth to her daughter, she is hooked up to a modern IV kit where the fluid is contained in clear plastic bag. A glass bottle, not a plastic bag, would have been used until the early-1980s.

    enjoyable horror flick
    Enjoyable horror flick that was pretty creepy and suspenseful with some good jump scares and jaw-dropping moments. also completely breaks the cliche of the annoying skeptical husband/boyfriend, that made me happy (2 viewings, 6/20/2020)
