The Artful Critic said "Eugenie Bondurant might make the most impression" and The Guardian stating "Bondurant's ... performance is the highlight of the film...Landon films the angles of her androgynous face to perfection: in a certain kind of light she looks frail and caring; from another angle she's menacing as hell." Eugenie played the role as "Isla," the Occultist in The Conjuring - The Devil Made Me Do It opposite Patrick Wilson and Vera Farming. Critics loved her as the film's evil antagonist - "Bondurant completely steals the show..." and "The Occultist...works thanks to the performance of Eugenie Bondurant."
