3. Storyline
When a younger girl called Emily Rose dies,
everyone puts blame on the exorcism which was
performed on her by Father Moore prior to her
death. The priest is arrested on suspicion of
murder. The trail begins with lawyer Erin Bruner
representing Moore, but it is not going to be easy,
as no one wants to believe what Father Moore says
is true.
4. Movie Review
We don't see the horrible violence of ''The Exorcist'' nor are
the images and scenes shown as scary.
What we see, lays emphasis on the drama and suffering of a
Girl and touches on the human side of things.
We think that the perspective of this Film is to a have more a
Social impact, not so much to be a Horror film.
5. Such truths are at the center of this fascinating and
mystifying movie, which is based on the true story of a
priest who was accused of murder after a teenage girl
died during an exorcism.
If the priest is correct and the girl was possessed by a
demon, he is innocent.
If the authorities called by the prosecution are correct,
she died of psychotic epileptic disorder, and the priest
created complications leading to her death.
