Always attracted by the truth

Watched this movie on the recommendation of a friend. Because I knew it was adapted from real events, I watched it very carefully. Although the movie itself was shot in accordance with the usual routines of American movies: family conflicts, family relationships, sick children, strange rooms... But I still have to say that it is not bad. Mainly because I am attracted by the truth.
After watching the movie, I was not addicted to it, so I searched for the original documentary of Discovery Channel everywhere on the Internet. After downloading on eMule, there are no subtitles. Barely read the whole story. I personally think that documentaries are more terrifying than movies, because you can see the doubts and reluctant self-deception on the faces of the parties, and there is no arrangement for the director.
The character settings of the movie are exactly the same as those in the documentary. The plots of ghosts are basically the same. But the documentary didn't tell everyone what ghost it was and what he wanted to do. Everyone saw the "people" who were lingering, and finally invited the pastor to exorcise the demon. The boy's illness did improve in the documentary, but he also faced a mental breakdown in the end.
But in the movie, all these narratives are clearly organized, logically coherent, and climaxes are repeated. Especially in the last fire, more than a hundred corpses fell from the cracks in the wall, and I was stunned. The director's arrangement seemed so real.
I have always believed in the existence of mysterious substances in the world, so I am fascinated by this kind of horror movies. Get a kind of release pleasure in the fright.

    It's so boring, why are you still making such an old-fashioned horror movie in 2009?

    It would be fun if it was a real event

  • [reciting a poem]

    Matt Campbell: One bright day in the middle of the night, two dead boys got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each other. A deaf policeman heard the noise and came and killed those two dead boys.
