[WhiteLotus*]

I was watching TV just randomly at 1:00 A.M., and there it is. I got so scared. I'm not good with horror movies, but this one is based on a true story. Nu-uh. You're not gonna see me at the movies watching this.

[cheerbee07]

i wanna see it, but i think after i see it would have a hard time getting to sleep!! lol

lmao. same here.

[Teesa]

I want to see that movie so bad! The trailer creeps me out, but interests me more and more every time I watch it. Or, at least, try to watch it.

I'm actually the other way around.. I'm starting to get tired of the movie, but I'll probably watch it.. I don't think it'll be that good but it should be worth watching..

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

i cant believe its real either. it is so scary you need to cover your eyes everytime the previews come on...mommy! lol

[megan_x3]

when i saw the exorcist; i got so scared. i was extremely afraid and my brother will always tease me and keep on saying her name and blah. and i saw the preview on the t.v. and it was pretty scary. my heart was like pumping really hard back and forth and .. got scary.

[JlIaTMK]

Hm, seems like a horror movie I've been waiting for a long time to come out. Most of the newer horror movies have been boring me.

I do want to see it.... just don't know when.

[fallen_angel1137]

I've saw the preview for it like 5 times one night on tv. I was getting a little freaked. I want to see it but i don't know if i'll be brave enough...

[Chii]

i hate to burst all your bubbles but it was only based on an idea from a true story

The Case of “Emily Rose”

The Exorcism of Emily Rose is based on the tragic case of a young German woman named Anneliese Michel, who in the early 1970s underwent an ordeal that eventually led to her death. The details of her case can be found in such Web article as “The Real Emily Rose” and “What Really Happened to Emily Rose?”. The controversy surrounding her illness, exorcism and death resulted in a sensational trial, all of which are part of the Emily Rose film.

Anneliese was diagnosed by doctors as suffering from grand mal epilepsy, a condition of the brain that causes severe seizures.

This, compounded by other possible mental and psychological disorders, resulted in hallucinations of demonic faces and voices. Her religious parents, apparently baffled and frustrated by their 16-year-old daughter’s increasingly psychotic and often violent behavior, chose to thwart the medical diagnosis and sought an exorcism

For years, the Church refused to grant an exorcism. They accepted the medical diagnosis, finding no supernatural criteria to warrant an exorcism. There were certainly very serious and highly disturbing symptoms: Anneliese would mutilate herself, eat flies and coal, drink her own urine and physically lash out at her family. A profoundly disturbed girl. But there was no levitation, no documented telekinesis (heck, even poltergeist cases have some telekinesis) – nothing whatsoever that could be deemed supernatural.

Making Matters Worse

Despite this lack of evidence, however, in 1975 the Michels finally convinced priests to perform exorcisms – a whole series of them, in fact, sometimes two rites a week! Certainly, this only reinforced Anneliese’s delusion that demons were inside her. And not just any demons. She claimed to be possessed by the spirits of Cain, Judas Iscariot, Nero, even Adolf Hitler, among others.

Only for a short time did she seem to improve because of the exorcism rites. But soon the mental anguish returned with a vengeance. She stopped eating and her knees ruptured from the 600 genuflections she performed obsessively.

Ultimately, the exorcisms failed. On July 30, 1976, Anneliese died of starvation, and her parents and exorcising priests were charged with negligent homicide – and rightly convicted.

The exorcisms failed because there was nothing to exorcise. Anneliese Michel was not possessed; she required heavy duty medical attention. Had her parents sought proper medical care for their daughter instead of seeking refuge in superstition, Anneliese might be alive today. With the improved medications and treatments now available, she might even be living a normal life.

the bottom line is, she had a mental illness but her religious parents thought she was possessed, they had some priests perform an exorcism, that messed her up even more, and she died of starvation (the "demons" wouldn't let her eat).

^oh me gosh...that's freaky
what is a exorism?

[AngryBaby]

wow chii, cool thanks. where the hell did they get the name emily from? lol if her name was Anneliese? ew, but epilepsy does all that? i thought it was only severe seizures?

[Looow]

NO WAY.

I get scared out of my pants when it comes to true story scary movies.

I change the channel every time the commercial comes on.

SHUADASFS

[nerdxcore]

yeah, i wanna see it to. and the previews scare me just as it is. lol. i do better if i watch a scary movie with someone though. it might look scary, but i dont know if it will actually be that way.

[AngryBaby]

its out now, and i heard its reall really dim lighting not just the scary parts, but even when they were in court and most of the movie was actually about the law suit more than the supossed "possession"

[kyttiekatt]

are you CRAZY???


i barely made it thru the ring!!!!!!!!

[*mona lisa*]

If I could handle The Ring and The Grudge, I guess I can watch this. The Ring was so not scary, but The Grudge creeped me out a little.

[mizzcrazy]

I saw it today. It wasnt scary, it was sad to see that something like that happen to a person. But there were some parts that made me jump because it came out of nowhere. lol.

I thought it was disrespectful how some of the people in the theatre laughed the whole time the movie was playing.

[ichiban]

eh, heard it wasn't that good. probably too scary for me anyway

PEOPLE LAUGHED? Damn, I will STRANGLE the person that's laughing. I just can't imagine what it would be like to have hallucinations and seizures everywhere you go. Poor Anneliese.. it must've been so horribile. I saw a few sneak peeks and I thought it was really sad when she was in class and saw the demon in the window and the guy turning all demonic. Like when she started crying. I can just imagine how she felt. Ugh...

[WindSorcerous]

That movies looks really freaky but good!

[Kenado]

If anyone did not post this yet you can read like what really happened to her it's quite sad actually. Her parents when to jail for some reason I don't know why.
