Ngehlobo eledlule, izethameli zakhangwa yimizuzu eyishumi yokuqala kaJames Wan I-the conjuring nendawo yayo ephambili, unodoli osabekayo okuthiwa u-Annabelle. Manje, lo doli usenayo i-movie yakhe, ebizwa ngokufanelekile Annabelle.

Setha unyaka owodwa ngaphambi kwemicimbi ye I-the conjuring, Annabelle yindaba yombhangqwana osemusha oshadile ogama lakhe linguJohn noMia Form (uWard Horton no-Annabelle Wallis) abalindele ingane yabo yokuqala. Ngobusuku obubodwa, ikhaya labo lihlaselwe amalungu amabili ehlelo lenkolo ahlasela uMia ngonya. UMia nengane yakhe bayasinda, kodwa elinye lamalungu enkolo liyazibulala ngenkathi liphethe omunye wonodoli bakaMia abavuthiwe. Ngokushesha ngemuva kwalokho, uMia uqala ukubona izinto ezimangazayo ezenzeka endlini, nakho konke okubonakala kukhomba emuva kunodoli. Lapho ingane izalwa, umsebenzi ozungeze idoli uyaqina. UJohn noMia bacela usizo lompristi wabo (uTony Amendola) kanye nomnikazi wesitolo sezincwadi semilingo (u-Alfre Woodard) ukuthola ukuthi kwenzekani, futhi bafunda ukuthi leli hlelo laphakamisa amandla amademoni manje asebenzisa lo doli njenge Umsele wokuzama ukweba umphefumulo wendodakazi yabo eyizinsana.

Ngoba Annabelle empeleni kungukuphuma kwe- I-the conjuring, ukuqhathanisa phakathi kwama-movie amabili akunakugwenywa. Ziyafana ngethoni, kepha zihlukile ngomongo; ngenkathi I-the conjuring kwaba The Amityville Horror uhlobo lwe-movie, Annabelle ukweleta okuningi ku- Ingane kaRosemary. UJames Wan uthatha indawo yomkhiqizi ku Annabelle futhi udlulisela imisebenzi yokuqondisa imisebenzi yakhe kumqambi wesinema wesikhathi eside uJohn R. Leonetti. Ngoba uWan noLeonetti banomlando omningi kangaka osebenza ndawonye, Annabelle ibukeka futhi izwakala njengefilimu kaJames Wan. Inobumnyama nokwesaba okufanayo I-the conjuring futhi I-insidious ama-movie, futhi isebenzisa amadivayisi amaningi afanayo; kunokuningi okude, okukhishiwe kuthatha ukunyakaza okuningi kwekhamera, kanye namashothi abanzi ahlala abonakala efihla okuthile emathunzini ekhoneni. Itholakala ngaphakathi kwendawo yonke efanayo I-the conjuring, ngakho inamathela ezinganekwaneni ezingaguquguquki. Phonsa kumdwebo we-KNB EFX owesabekayo kanye nesilinganiso somculo sikaJoseph Bishara esifanelekile, futhi Annabelle ifeza inhloso yayo; iba yingxenye yohlu lwezincwadi lukaJames Wan ngaphandle kokuzwa njengokuqhekeka ngqo kwefilimu yakuqala.

Indawo okugxilwe kuyo Annabelle kusobala ukuthi unodoli. Okuthokozisayo ngalelo qiniso ukuthi unodoli ungumlingiswa wesibili; kuyidivayisi yesakhiwo edingekayo, kepha indaba yangempela imayelana nomndeni nedimoni elifisa ukulichitha. Unodoli ka-Annabelle ngokuyisisekelo uyi-prop, yize ungomunye one-arc yawo ecacile; uqala ukubukeka okusha futhi ongenacala, kepha kuya ngokuya kuguga futhi kubi njengoba ifilimu iqhubeka futhi idemoni lizuza kakhulu ngaphakathi kwakhe. Unodoli uwuphawu lobubi obukhulu kunokuba abe ngumphikisi ophakathi, okuhle; Chucky kusuka Izingane zokudlala kumnandi, kepha akekho umuntu odinga omunye. Kunamandla amaningi amabi asebenzayo ku Annabelle.

Like I-the conjuring, Annabelle inezigcawu eziningana zokusola okusabisayo, lapho izethameli zazi kahle kahle ukuthi kuzokwenzekani, hhayi nje nini. Isibonelo, engxenyeni eyodwa, uMia usebenzisa umshini wakhe wokuthunga ngenkathi ebuka ithelevishini. Ikhamera isika phakathi kokudutshulwa kweminwe yakhe, inaliti yomshini, nobuso bakhe obuphazamisekile, kwakha umuzwa wokungezwani ngaphakathi kwesibukeli okungeyona into efanelekile. Kwesinye isigcawu, uMia uhlaselwa yidemoni ngenkathi engaphansi kwesakhiwo, futhi ukujaha ikati negundane okuba umphumela kube ngesinye sezimo zekheshi ezesabekayo ezake zenziwa ku-celluloid. Into eyodwa leyo Annabelle yenza kangcono kune I-the conjuring or I-insidious sebenzelana nedimoni. Ngokuyisisekelo, uLeonetti akakhombisi neze idimoni, ngakho-ke lapho izethameli zithola umbono osheshayo, kuyethusa impela. Lokho okucatshangwa yizethameli kuhlale kwesabeka kunalokho umenzi wamafilimu angakukhombisa, futhi Annabelle uyakuqonda lokhu. Uma kukhulunywa ngokukhombisa amadimoni, kuncane okungaphezulu.

Kunamaphuzu ku- Annabelle lapho ifilimu ibuyela emuva kuzinkolelo-ze nezintambo zohlobo olwesabekayo: indawo yokulala engenalutho lapha, isipoki sentombazane encane lapho. Kepha, ikakhulukazi, Annabelle i-movie enhle yangempela. Futhi, ngokungafani nama-movie amaningi aphathelene nokuphathwa kwamademoni agcwala ezinkundleni zemidlalo kulezi zinsuku, Annabelle akugcini ngokukhipha amadimoni. Okusemqoka wukuthi Annabelle ihambisana kahle namanye ama-movie kaJames Wan, futhi abalandeli bekhathalogi yakhe bazoba ngabalandeli Annabelle.
