      The horrible sequelae of faith

      Yinzi

      heard a friend once said that after watching a Thai ghost movie, he was very depressed for three consecutive months, and his psychological shadow has not been completely dissipated so far. I felt very funny at the time. To be honest, my attention was not focused on the movie he was...

      On the Importance of Compilation

      First of all, I thought about it, if it were not the monk, priest, Taoist priest, imam, but the folk shaman and magic stick, how would I watch this movie or this event.

      I like watching horror movies when I can't sleep, but I've always felt that ghost movies are just a combination...

      The female pig's feet are too long, but she is absolutely powerful, and stories about religion are always very attractive.

      The biggest gimmick is based on real events, which is actually a court trial film. It would hardly be a horror movie without a limited amount of mysterious encounters with lawyers and priests outside the courtroom. The film has many interesting arguments, such as the ancient "whether science can't prove it exists" and "God is all-good, why does demon possess human beings" and so on. The focus of the lawyers' debate is ultimately on possibilities rather than facts. The ratings appear to be polar.

    The Exorcism of Emily Rose quotes

    • Father Moore: Emily, can you hear me?

      Emily Rose: [in Latin] I am the one who dwells within.

      Father Moore: And I am the one who comes in His name.

      Emily Rose: You think you can force me out, priest? Try. I dare you.

      [Emily twitches and falls to the ground]

    • Father Moore: Once you've looked into the darkness, I think you carry it with you for the rest of your life.
