In 2018, ‘The Nun’, another spin-off from the horror universe ‘Conjuring’, was released in theaters and although the film was not exactly well received by critics and audiences, it received a 24 percent rating in the trade press and a score of 24 percent. Audience rating of 35 percent on the review aggregation platform speak clearly – the jump scare became a blockbuster. The nightmare nun was able to put more than 365 million dollars in the treasury worldwide. A sequel was only a matter of time.

Of “The nun 2The sequel opens in German cinemas today. The sequel is not only well received by the audience: 74 percent – but is also on the verge of becoming a real blockbuster. The film was released in early September in many countries, including the US, and has since grossed $168 million worldwide.

The sinister nun also has a good chance of securing the title of highest-grossing horror film of the year. This prize is currently awarded to ‘Insidous: The Red Door’, which grossed $188.5 million.
