The Exorcism of Emily Rose is worth watching
25/11/2005 - 13:43:59The Exorcism of Emily Rose
Director: Scott Derrickson
Cast: Laura Linney, Tom Wilkinson, Campbell Scott, Jennifer Carpenter
For once the special effects in this conventional demonic story make it worth watching, as does the acting of a first-rate cast.
The plot concerns Priest Wilkinson on trial for the legligent homicide of a young girl while under his care (Carpenter, the Emily of the title who believed she was possessed).
Linney plays the non-believing lawyer defending him in what becomes a thriller-horror-religious film.
Star Rating: 4/5
