The film is about religious fanatic (played by Winona Ryder) who believes Satan is about to take a man’s body and walk the earth. She finds out a man that writes about murderers is the body that Satan will take. She has to try to do something to stop this from happening. This film is very easy to get into. The plot develops quite early in the film so you get interested straight away. The atmosphere built up quickly. There are some weird moments in this film. I wouldn’t say that they were scary, but there were strange and creepy. It had an eerie feel to it. The content and the subject of the film really makes you think about the powers of good and evil and whether or not they really exist. It leaves you with something to think about as well as being slightly creepy. This film isn’t really as good as some of the other horror films. I much preferred ‘The Exorcist’. This is because ‘The Exorcist’ was more visually scary. The acting in this film was ok but could have been better. The ending of this film was quite disappointing. It ended too soon and far to much like I expected. Some may enjoy it more than others so it is worth renting. It wasn’t the best horror film I have ever seen but i did enjoy it. It is worth watching. This film should be watched in the dark on your own to really scare you.
