The Exorcism of Emily Rose.
I saw 'The Exorcism of Emily Rose' a few days back and I must say it is definitely an interesting movie and worth watching once. It makes you think on what you really believe. It is based on the true story of Anneliese Michel who was thought to have been possessed and went through an exorcism in the mid-70s in Germany. She died some time later and her parents and her priest were put on trial for negligence leading to homicide. The movie is entirely set in the court room trail while her story is told via flash backs. The movie is a little different from the original story and is based in the US. One of the most interesting parts I found was the change of roles for the prosecutor and the defense attorney over the course of the trial. The prosecutor was a Christian who goes regularly to church and takes part in church related activities while the defense attorney is agnostic. Both their beliefs changed by the time the trial was over. There is hardly any blood or gore but the movie does a good job of scaring you. A good movie!
