All Conjuring Universe Movies Ranked
The first Conjuring movie descended with one of the great marketing hooks: That the MPAA had slapped it was an R rating for simply being too scary. And, for once, the movie itself lived up to the marketing hype: With nary any blood or boobs, The Conjuring jammed audiences into a non-stop claustrophobic horror thrill ride, as Ed and Lorraine Warren investigated paranormal activity in the ’70s. A Certified Fresh rating (a first for director James Wan) helped in securing a sequel, a $300 million worldwide box office haul all but guarantees it – and The Conjuring 2was almost as scary as the original.
From there, the Conjuring Universe expanded into sequels and spin-offs that have whisked audiences to locales like London, Rome, and Mexico. With The Conjuring: Last Rites ostensibly tying up the entire franchise, we’re ranking all the Conjuring movies by Tomatometer, with Certified Fresh films first!

Critics Consensus:The Devil Made Me Do It represents a comedown for the core Conjuring films, although Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson keep the audience invested.

Synopsis: 1956 — France. A priest is murdered. An evil is spreading. The sequel to the worldwide smash hit follows Sister [More]
Critics Consensus:Annabelle borrows unabashedly from better horror films, content to leave viewers with a string of cheap jolts that fail to build on the far more effective The Conjuring.

Critics Consensus: Content to coast on jump scares rather than tap into its story’s creepy potential, The Curse of La Llorona arrives in theaters already broken.
