I need an Exorcist over here!!!!

Over the weekend I had the misfortune of watching a rancid piece of trash called The Exorcism of Emily Rose. The only way I myself was able to sit through this travesty was to douse myself in "Holy" water and scream at the top of my lungs "THE POWER OF satan compels you!

When the movie opens Emily Rose has already died and the priest that performed the Exorcism is on trial for killing her. What follows is one girl’s descent into "Hell". Apparently Lucifer and Belial, having nothing better to do with their time, decide to invade the body of Emily Rose and pretty much turn her into a laughable victim. Had Linda Blair been cast as Emily Rose this may have gone places but alas it didn’t happen. The priest does battle with the two Crown Princes of Hell and fails miserably (Did you really think if Lucifer and Belial were in the body they'd be driven out by a man?) Emily finally dies and the priest tells her story in court and now her grave is a site of pilgrimage for the devout. Gee...how entrancing... the only thing this movie needs is an Exorcist because it is possessed by cheap thrills, horrible dialogue and a possession victim who looks and acts like a wooden mannequin through most of the movie.

If you are planning on seeing this...DONT! It would be a total waste of your time!

I give the movie because the credits were great hehehe!

Til Next time
