Relly hope it focuses on the crime element


I'm already nervous about this one since the director doesn't have a good track record, but I think it would be really interesting given the case to see this one focus more on a crime element combined with some horror than just being a straight up horror film.

Maybe you should hope that someone will make a documentary video about the case, then. This should be a horror movie.

Sorry to disappoint you but the murder case is entirely secondary in the plot. It’s totally the Warren Show.

It doesn't and the movie completely stinks , for too many reasons to even begin to list.

But alas it doesn't. The story would work well as a true crime, but no, it doesn't. In the movie's universe the demonic element is given the same due consideration as any other case aspect. I compared it to Watchmen or some other superhero movie in which superheroes with magical powers are real and part and parcel of everyday life.
