Director James Wan (Insidious, Saw) was at WonderCon on Saturday to debut new footage from his upcoming horror film The Conjuring.
The fact-based horror film recalls the most terrifying case legendary husband and wife paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren (Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga) ever encountered. Set in 1971, the film involves a family (led by Lili Taylor and Ron Livingston) whose farmhouse is haunted by a witch's spirit. This is a forerunner to The Amityville Horror -- the case that made the Warrens famous -- and it touches upon the religious conflict between God and demons.
The first sequence screened showed Lili and her daughter playing a game of blindfolded hide-and-seek that culminates with Lili's first realization that something just ain't right in her home.As the sequence progressed, she hears a strange clapping sound that she believes is from her children playing past their bedtime, but obviously that's not it. Her investigation into the strange sounds leads her to make a very unwise trip to her cellar, a decision that got the crowd riled up and shouting at the screen for her to not go down there. Fun stuff.
The next sequence involved the family's daughters Christine and Nancy. Both girls are asleep when Christine is awakened by her leg being tugged by an invisible force. She initially thinks it's Nancy toying with her but, of course, it isn't. Christine is scared and won't get out of bed. She looks under her bed, but nothing is there. Then she notices something in the shadows, something we can't make out. She wakes up Nancy who gets and walks into the shadows by the door to prove there's nothing there. As you might guess, she's dead wrong.
The Conjuring opens July 19.
