Quotes Father Moore : Tell me your six names! Crazy credits Opening statement: This film is based on a true story. Alternate versions Theatrical version min. Soundtracks Prelude, Op. User reviews Review. Top review. The Sacrifice Of Emily Rose. Scott Derricksen's well-executed multi-layered film works both as a psychological horror and a gripping courtroom drama.
He was so inspired by the novel and intrigued by the issues presented that he ended up making this movie. It shows that he has done extensive research.
What I liked about the horror element is that even though there are a few jumps, it does not derail into ridicule. The director doesn't overdo any violence, blood, scary faces and whatever. Derricksen uses a lot of silence which leaves the viewer in a heightened state of suspense desperately wondering what will break the silence. His use of colour is clever and it sets a chilling atmosphere. The exorcism scenes are quite chilling unlike the unintentionally funny ones in 'The Exorcist'.
The courtroom sequences raise some interesting questions about scientific reasoning versus the unknown and unexplained. I was impressed that it didn't become one of those God versus Science movies but the Shohreh Agdashloo track left a lot to be desired. In addition to being a well crafted film, the performances are among the highlights.
Tom Wilkinson gives a phenomenal subtle performance. A ravishing Laura Linney is equally electrifying from the yuppie ambitious lawyer to one whose internal conflict makes her doubtful. Jennifer Carpenter delivers an astonishing performance.
It couldn't have been an easy part to pull off and would have been easier to mess up but she does a solid job. It definitely makes Linda Blair's bad performance in the 'Exorcist' look miserable. I'm not much of a horror movie fan, mostly because they tend to be ridiculous and end up being funny or boring rather than having the intended effect.
It will be wrong to lable 'The Exorcism of Emily Rose' is much more than just another horror flick because it does raise questions and tackles some issues without coming to a definitive conclusion as there are simply no answers to some things that happen.
