Annabelle

Audience emotional responses to Annabelle (2014) are primarily driven by the film's horror and thriller elements. The constant threat from the malevolent doll and the initial violent cult invasion evoke high levels of Fear, Anxiety, and a sense of being Disturbing. Jump scares and unexpected plot developments contribute significantly to Surprise, while the unfolding mystery of the doll's powers and the characters' plight generates strong Anticipation and Curiosity. Empathy for the vulnerable protagonists, particularly the expectant mother, and Sadness over their traumatic experiences also feature prominently, contributing to the overall unsettling and suspenseful atmosphere.
