Based on true events but now everything seems to be. It was very slow and melodramatic. The young actor co-starring Anthony Hopkins seemed like he was always bored and annoyed at Hopkins and did not really act. I'd say this was more drama than horror with some disturbing images but quite a boring 'possession' movie.Based on true events but now everything seems to be. It was very slow and melodramatic.

I'd group this in scifi/thriller instead of horror but I can see it being viewed as almost apocalyptic. Its a different view on biblical images as well as alien life-forms. It might be difficult to figure out the story but if you watch it with an open mind, its actually quite powerful.I'd group this in scifi/thriller instead of horror but I can see it being viewed as almost apocalyptic.

it does have a twist in the end which I didn't expect (and I'm one to ALWAYS predict these twists). It got right into the story and the acting was decent, more of a thriller than a horror but worth checking out

I really enjoyed this horror since it didn't shy away from showing disturbing images and it was defiantly scary.
On the down-side It was pretty predictable and some characters could have been a little more developed or realistic as well as the "monster" suspiciously looked a lot like a member off Slipknot.I really enjoyed this horror since it didn't shy away from showing disturbing images and it was defiantly scary.

this was interesting with disturbing images, creepy moments, etc. but I think the creators couldn't really decide on their genre so they included EVERYTHING with an artistic flare.

Not a movie for audiences who expect a run-of-the-mill horror/thriller. Its a very clever and artistically done film that is aimed at a specific viewer. It is disturbing but might not be scary for most people. It mostly takes place in a recording studio since it was a limited budget but it is a very interesting concept.Not a movie for audiences who expect a run-of-the-mill horror/thriller.

I watched this with an open mind but it was clearly done by someone who had little knowledge of the process of church when investigating miracles. This was like an excuse to exploit the church yet again with some touchy subjects.
It does have disturbing and gory scenes if that's what you're seeking but subject matter can be offensive to some viewers.I watched this with an open mind but it was clearly done by someone who had little knowledge of the process of church when investigating miracles.

This is probably the best movie interpretation based on the novel and done in a classy and tasteful way unlike the new version that I've seen.

If you're a fan of Rob, sure, watch it but it was just a lot of random "scary" images that reappear but overall a very forgettable movie.

This movie is sick on so many levels & surprised the library carries it. To start off it had incest, both "parents" or creators of the creature end up having intercourse with it, secondly the woman is actually raped when the creature decides to change genders, and thirdly the creature is not even human...it smelt a bit like bestiality. So yes, I'm sure the director/writers of this movie had some sick fascination with getting away with the above topics & attempting to make it seem all OK. It's not.This movie is sick on so many levels & surprised the library carries it.

Basically I discourage anyone who values their life to avoid this movie at all costs. I gave it a shot since I did half like the 1st movie but this....let's just say I wish I could win back the 1/2 hour I wasted (fast-forwarding) on this muck. Its horribly written, done in very bad humor, completely different style than the first (honestly, you'd think the 2 weren't connected) & Cage's character seemed to have been re-written as well.

I recommend this series for anyone who like sci-fi. You can tell Spielberg had a hand in this, a well written story, majestic music, decent acting and CGI.
Some of the scenes are dialogue & has a lot of military involvement but I especially appreciate the importance of family & the small simple things in life. It really makes you think of how much we have & how much we could lose if any kind of apocalyptic situation had befallen the world.
