On how religious horror films draw people into religion

Agree with the point made earlier, this is actually a religious propaganda film!

First of all, as the enemy of the devil, God not only cannot deal with it, but also relies on the punishment of the devil to prove his existence. But does it make sense to prove this existence? The existence of God still cannot help those who are tormented.

Second, one of the cunning aspects of the film is the "possibility" that the female lawyer reiterates at the end. Don't tell you directly that God really exists, because that's hard for atheists to accept. "Possibility" puts you in a state of skepticism, doubting your theories. As soon as it says that the existence of God is just a possibility, you can't argue against it (dialectical materialism-style handshake).

In the end, the unfortunate female lawyer, the priest told her that anyone who has seen darkness will bear it for life, so that the female lawyer can't sleep well after the case is closed. This statement magnifies the fear of the unknown. Out of self-protection, unsettled people will naturally want to seek help so that they will not fall into the torture that they cannot get rid of. However, as mentioned above, even if you are tortured by demons, God is helpless. So, you should rely on your own strength to overcome fear. After all, the most terrifying thing about the fear of the unknown is the "unknown", and a strong heart is not Will throw like "God" and let you fend for yourself.

PS, having seen another Exorcist, I can make a comparison of how scary the possessive scenes of the two movies are, and the conclusion is that the other one is scarier!

    Invisibility does not mean non-existence, and invisibility does not mean that it exists, but wise people will not wantonly stifle the possibility, and believe that this is the truth, because the truth does not allow the possibility to exist.
