Possessed (2000 TV Movie)
8/10
similar to exorcist only much better
31 August 2002
the film version of possessed is really good. the acting is of the highest standards - timothy dalton as good as ever. the plot itself is based on a true story of a boy being possessed by a devil in 1950s. if the film is not an exaggeration of the incident then it is of great concern to all those who believe in faith and god. it definitely made me question lots of things - god ,religion, evil, heaven and hell etc. u'll be thinking for days after - one of those films that may leave a lasting impression.

the film is expertly made, beaustiful cast, wonderful sound - great surround sound. great showcase for relatively inexpensive filmmaking. shows that u don't need millions to produce a good motion picture.

the exorcism itself is a very frightening issue. its very scary and is not for the faint-hearted. not advisable for children or people who are squemish.

its impossible to describe this film in any way, one of those that u have to watch to understand what its all about. the film covers many areas, such as peoples relationship, good and bad, morality, the unknown and ofcourse humanity itself.

great film that can teach us about ourselves and our beliefs. and ofcourse that there are some things which are difficult to explain scientifically.

highly recommended. warning it feels quite a long film and will require u to pay attention.
