The Conjuring 2 gets release date

Although it was announced that The Conjuring 2 would be moving to sometime in 2016, it came with goods news; James Wan would be returning to direct. The successful horror filmmaker – the man behind modern hits such as Saw and Insidious – received his highest ever critical acclaim with 2013’s The Conjuring, a beautifully crafted haunted house flick filled with old-school scares. And now that Wan has signed on to helm the sequel, a release date has also been set: June 10, 2016 will see audiences terrified once again. Wan recently took a break from the genre that made him, taking the wheel on the box office behemoth Fast & Furious franchise; he’s clearly keen to make sure that The Conjuring 2 is as good as – and as scary as – it can be.
