One of the Conjuring universe movies recently debuted on Netflix, and it is really creeping out watchers. Annabelle: Creation, an origin story for the franchise’s petrifying possessed doll, is currently the number four film on Netflix’s Top 10 Movies list. It trails behind three other recent entries: The Royal Treatment, Munich: The Edge of War, and Aileen Wuornos: American Boogeywoman.
In Annabelle: Creation, Conjuring fans are treated to the humble and frightening beginnings of Annabelle, a terrifying toy that has tormented unsuspecting people who were unlucky enough to come across her over the years. The film stars Stephanie Sigman, Talitha Bateman, Anthony LaPaglia, and Miranda Otto, and was directed by David F. Sandberg, from a script by Gary Dauberman. Notably, Sandberg has since gone on to helm the Shazam franchise for DC and Warner Bros.
