A ghost story. It's really good to be able to shoot like this in the 1970s! I regret watching "Scream" first, which completely imitates the classic episodes in it, and the sinful Scream! The overall narrative of the plot is somewhat lengthy, and there are quite a few religious elements. After reading the film review, I realized that watching this film should take into account the background of the times in the United States at that time, the beat generation and the lack of belief. The atmosphere in the shooting is very well presented, with various sound and light, and the makeup is very good. Poor girl, spider crawling is really scary. Well written "Where did the devil come from and what does he want? The film doesn't say it, but he took over the body of a virgin - which is considered the most holy by Christians, which is undoubtedly a strong metaphor. It Desecrating icons, tending little girls to urinate in public, exposing their private parts in front of doctors, piercing their genitals with crosses. In a country where more than 70% of the population is Christian, this is the greatest insult - what could be more What is even more absurd when the Lord’s gift is trampled on? The unscrupulousness of the devil, the helplessness of the doctor, and the helplessness of the priest, the stark contrast of the three is as if the end of the world has come, but we have not seen the salvation bestowed by the Lord. What we depend on is actually given It is not our strength. Facing the devil, all the priest does is sprinkle holy water, read the Bible

What an artistic horror movie. I really hope that the great Friedkin can make more films or give more lectures. The sub-shots are written super well, the jumping shots are super sensational, and Friedkin's scheduling is superb.

The first half is too procrastinating, and the small procrastination at the end is also a little out of state. But the plot is pretty good right from the start. The ghost is clever and thoughtful, and the one who turns his head and climbs the stairs is quite scary.
