This movie was not lame or boring. Everyone was disappointed by it because they were expecting a typical scary movie, which was NOT what this was. The emphasis on the court room scenes were done on purpose. Rather than condemning the movie for what it wasn't, why doesn't everyone look at what it was?

one of the most boring and unentertaining movies I've ever seen.

XRag_DollXST

Well I saw it when no one else was in the movie theater except for me and Paul..so we got to scream and laugh all we want.

That made it amazing...but not a good movie to stay quiet through haha.

I really liked this movie. Alot of it being because it's based on a true story...(i dunno, makes it more scarey or something...lol).
Good movie....good acting, good actors/actresses....

!*aLi_CaPoNe*!

I didn't like it at all. I assumed from the previews it would be this great horror movie... I was disappointed.

Friday November 10, 2006 - 4:45 PM

I really did enjoy this movie, especially since it was based on a true story.

Sunday October 29, 2006 - 7:33 PM

_spin_spin_

movie has good potential but the way it was filmed and editted needs improvement

Sunday October 29, 2006 - 7:09 PM

i totally agree about the movie not involving the court case as much as the did. but it was still FREAKY!!!

Saturday October 28, 2006 - 10:32 PM

Femme~Fatale

This movie wasn't at all what I thought it would be... did not like it @ all!!

Saturday October 28, 2006 - 10:07 PM

GlowingStars

I haven't seen it, but I heard the actress who played Emily did all the weird contortions herself, no dummy/doll needed. Which I think is pretty wicked.

Saturday October 28, 2006 - 3:44 PM

_never_mind_

I wish there would of been more.. Devil possessing, and less, court. ( Basically what the person below me said.)

Thursday October 19, 2006 - 3:12 AM

TinyLittleAtom

I was impressed by the fact that it was based on true events.
That inspired me to do some research on it after watching it.
The movie though - didn't impress me at all.

Monday October 16, 2006 - 10:41 PM

~NDPenDentHeart~

LOVED THIS MOVIE!!!!

Monday October 16, 2006 - 9:57 PM

Scarah

I think it did focus too much on the court case, but I liked how 'Emily' contorted her body in some scenes, that was freaky

Monday October 16, 2006 - 6:00 PM

.uh.dick.tid.

i think the movie focused entirely too much on everything else, other than the point the previews attempted to make. aside from the fact that the previews pretty much gave away every good scene of the movie - and completely manipulated the audiance

Monday October 16, 2006 - 2:24 PM

Dj_snug

good

Monday October 16, 2006 - 2:06 PM

nachos666

i liked this movie. even though not too many ppl liked the courtroom scene i did. since no one would really believe the posibility of demons or possession. only scientific facts.
i thought this movie was very creepy. i even went on the internet and read the actual case of it. i think it was some german girl named annilese( i think i spelled that wrong)
but it was really crazy. poor girl.
and with everything that is wrong with the world today--why couldn't anyone believe in demons.

i thought this movie was good. and very creepy.
especially when the part where she was in a pretzel position on the floor. *shivers* creepiness i say.

Monday October 16, 2006 - 1:51 PM

HEATER

boring
this movie ws silly
not scary

Monday October 16, 2006 - 1:05 PM

love_suxs

this movie scared the shit out of me. i loved it but i hated it.

Monday October 16, 2006 - 11:23 AM

Mr.Fahrenheit

There were some cool things in the movie, but I was expecting something more. The problem with the movie is that it was based on the court case that happened after, so everyone was expecting something exorcist'y and they ended up having to watch court crap.

Monday October 16, 2006 - 11:13 AM

paper_cup

i hated this damn movie..I saw it in theatre and i just found it so boring ..but then I thought i might have just been dsitracted or something so i rented it, and it was just as bad the second time

Monday October 16, 2006 - 11:06 AM

Monday October 16, 2006 - 10:29 AM

es1ckness

I think it was fucked up. Also, since it was based on a true story, i think thaaaats what makes it so fucked. It jsut like made me think a lot about this possesion shit and...wow. If that can happen to someone... wow....
Her facial expressions still pop up into my head sometimes when im alone in a dark room or something. Not cool lol

Monday October 16, 2006 - 1:37 AM

this movie was gith still..i thought it was one of the better parts

Monday October 16, 2006 - 12:33 AM

BRANdNASIUm

it wasn't a bad, movie. but it wasn't great its some where inbetween. it should of used a lot more stuff on that actually exorcism than making it into some trival show wannabe

Sunday October 15, 2006 - 11:00 PM

Brianna

I didn't think it was that good but it had its moments...

Sunday October 15, 2006 - 10:57 PM

I fell asleep twice during this movie...
Missed basically the entire thing, I believe...

Yah, definatley what Taintedwine said for sure.

Sunday October 15, 2006 - 1:59 PM

Novemberose

I give it a solid 2 star rating, because it had it's interesting
parts, yet a very LOW re-watchabilaty factor. It's one of thoes
movies that you watch, and don't need to watch again.

Sunday October 15, 2006 - 10:20 AM

The_Pear

It wasnt meant to be your typical slasher horror film - its a film to make you think, to question your faith to really think about the 2 sides of the court case and think about who you believe - was she truely just insane or was she posessed....

Stop thinking of this movie as a "horror" rewatch it and analize what happened in the court room. Take some time to read the story behind the movie. I look forward to seeing the German movie - hopefully they will release it here with subtitles.

Sunday October 15, 2006 - 2:57 AM

_Chels__

ugh.. horrible.. i thought it was funny.

Sunday October 15, 2006 - 2:46 AM

.Inertia.

I like how they took it the opposite way that I expected.. adding the law aspect to it made it original, I enjoyed it a lot.

Sunday October 15, 2006 - 2:43 AM

Symbiant

everyone that does reviews on here that puts negative inputs has no idea what they're talking aout or has the maturity of a day old donut..

Movie was 100% amazing and kreeped the hell out of and my birthday is halloween!!

Sunday October 15, 2006 - 2:37 AM

Junglist27

just saw it the other day and it was a wicked flick + being based on tru events so something simialler did happen thats some crazy shit

Sunday October 15, 2006 - 12:21 AM

;MørbidCherry

I think it was shit, I mean.. it wasn't that scary from my point of view. People raved about it and it did NOT fulfill its expectations for me AT all.

Sunday October 15, 2006 - 12:01 AM

.:d(-_-)b:.

i think they did a really good job portraying the posession and how it progressed. i didnt find it cheezy at all.
i liked it smile

it was a different kind of scary movie - not just overdone gore(even though i love those movies too tongue)

really scary movie gave me the fucking shivers

Saturday October 14, 2006 - 2:38 AM

dj_saiyan

I found it to be an interesting flick that kept my attention.

I really enjoyed that it worked on two levels, both as a horror movie and a courtroom drama.

Damn good movie, well worth the $10 I spent on the DVD (thank yooooooooooou Rogers Video)

Saturday October 14, 2006 - 1:43 AM

DaNciN.PhReAk

being a horror movie buff.. i thought it was pretty good.. they told the story well.. and in my opinion no it wasnt scary.. but it was pretty creepy..
so thats a good thing coming from me! normally with horror flicks these days i dont find them scary or creepy at all.
so cudos to them for creeping me out just a little!

Saturday October 14, 2006 - 1:11 AM

coffeecup420

not as scary as it looked my words are waste of a spliff lol
wayy too much law shiut in it too!

Friday October 13, 2006 - 10:30 PM

Mr.Me

I was disappointed with this film. I went into it expecting a real shocker but left feeling disappointed. There were some cool scenes, but for the most part it wasn't scary. I will say though that for a PG-13 movie it was good. In reality though, after the Exoricist there really is no place to go but down.

Friday October 13, 2006 - 10:11 PM

Shug

Creepy fun, although take the fact that this was "based on a true story" with a huge chunk of salt.

Enjoy it for what it is, a nice creepy possession story. They took a lot of dramatic license with the real-life story of Anneliese Michel, a girl in 60's Germany ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anneliese_Michel ).... but like I said, just watch it for the creep-out scenes that sneak up on you.

Friday October 13, 2006 - 8:10 PM

~Drea~

i found it a bit boring ... it had a great story line to it but they could have thrown in a bit more scary clips i didn't enjoy it at all i almost walked out

Friday October 13, 2006 - 8:01 PM

bleedblackwax

Horrible..I was more scared by the trailers than the actual movie. I can't take it seriously, since Emily is played by that girl from 'White Chicks.' I like the concept, but..it was just, stupid

Friday October 13, 2006 - 7:43 PM

NNY

Horribly pathetic movie. That is all. It's so boring and the ONLY scary parts are in the trailer, and the way that they are placed in the movie aren't even scary anymore. VERY poorly done. It seems as if they were just trying to make money off a true told story, and they cared NOTHING for the actual film making.

Monday October 09, 2006 - 6:36 PM

Ok, I went into this movie thinking that it was going to be some kind of Exorcist rip off, and by the end I was blown away.
While it was not the best movie on the subject, the lead actresses perfomance was well done and beyond.

Saturday October 07, 2006 - 9:33 AM

marissa3

i found this movie very good and some parts scared people i watched it with.

Wednesday October 04, 2006 - 4:33 PM

drz

definitely not scary
and definitely too dramatic

i expect more from horror films

Wednesday September 27, 2006 - 5:41 PM

When you hear the word exorcism you think okay cool there's going to be some sweet stand off with the dark forces of evil and a priest.
Well, there's a bit of that. But this movie is more along the lines of Law and Order meets The Exorcist with a pinch of The Ghost Busters and Ali Mcbeal.
Exorcism of Emily Rose should have been call People Vs. "The demons"
P.S. ANY courtroom drama when the case is going to be made by a key witness. Who happens to be introduced more than half way into the film will die. x_X
