The Nun II

Irene and Debra pray the Words of Institution as the old barrels of wine in the room become the blood of Christ, banishing the demon and freeing Maurice of possession.Additionally, Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga reprise their roles as Ed and Lorraine Warren respectively in the mid-credits scene, using archived footage from The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It.[18][20] In October 2022, Taissa Farmiga and Jonas Bloquet were confirmed to be reprising their roles from the first film, with Anna Popplewell and Katelyn Rose Downey added to the cast later that month.[31] In the United States, The Nun II was released alongside My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3, and was projected to gross $31–34 million from 3,728 theaters in its opening weekend.The website's consensus reads: "Scarier than its predecessor, The Nun II makes for an entertaining addition to the Conjuring franchise despite not being the most original horror sequel.[3] Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "The filmmaker does a fine job creating a suitably ominous atmosphere (the old-world European locations and Tristan Nyby's gloomy cinematography really help) and orchestrates the violent mayhem, much of it involving terrified little girls, with disturbing relish."[37] The Times's Ed Potton gave the film 3/5 stars, saying it "often flirts with ridiculousness", but praised Chaves's direction, Farmiga and Downey's performances and the finale.[38] CNN's Brian Lowry called the film "a slick if familiar addition to the very fertile Conjuring universe that, by deftly expanding on the 2018 hit, appears destined to become another cinematic habit."[39] Dennis Harvey of Variety wrote, "In some respects an improvement on its predecessor, in others not, this is finally one more good-enough if unmemorable entry sure to extend the series' life in lucrative fashion."[41] Claire Shaffer of The New York Times said the film "runs like haunted clockwork, shoving characters down dark alleyways or abandoned chapels every five minutes with little justification."[42] The Sydney Morning Herald's Jake Wilson gave it 2/5 stars, writing, "The shocks are brief and not too grisly, the dingy Gothic look is as you'd expect, and the mechanical climax steers clear of the more unsettling possibilities that might have emerged if Frenchie's Jekyll and Hyde sides had been meaningfully linked.
