[News] ANNABELLE COMES HOME at Cinepocalypse

Chicago’s Cinepocalypse Film Fest is thrilled to announce the addition of a Special Presentation screening of ANNABELLE COMES HOME on June 19^th—a full week before the film’s release—at the Music Box Theatre, as part of our exciting 2019 program. The film is written and directed by Gary Dauberman and co-written and produced by celebrated horror filmmaker James Wan, alongside Conjuring Universe producer Peter Safran.

In ANNABELLE COMES HOME, demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren, determined to keep Annabelle from wreaking more havoc, bring the possessed doll to the locked artifacts room in their home, placing her “safely” behind sacred glass and enlisting a priest’s holy blessing. But an unholy night of horror awaits as Annabelle awakens the evil spirits in the room, who all set their sights on a new target—the Warrens’ ten-year-old daughter, Judy, and her friends.

Gary Dauberman, the screenwriter of the Annabelle, IT and the upcoming IT Chapter Two, and The Nun, makes his directorial debut on ANNABELLE COMES HOME, which is produced by Peter Safran (Aquaman), who has produced all the films in the Conjuring franchise, and Conjuring Universe creator James Wan (Aquaman), who has produced the last five films under his Atomic Monster banner.

The film stars Mckenna Grace, Madison Iseman and Katie Sarife, with Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga reprising their roles as Ed and Lorraine Warren. Dauberman directed the film from a screenplay he wrote, from a story by Dauberman & Wan. Richard Brener, Dave Neustadter, Victoria Palmeri, Atomic Monster’s Michael Clear, Michelle Morrissey, and Atomic Monster’s Judson Scott served as executive producers.
