Pros great story, great actors

Yes, I had some reservations about the subject matter and wasn't looking forward to some demonic possession horror film. The subject matter was very well presented and showed respect for religious beliefs and practices. I have great respect for the strength of Hasidic beliefs and appreciate respect shown in Possession. Performances demonstrated abilities to stretch beyond to create something greater than gore and horror. The psychological aspects of family members were clear and held me at the edge of my seat from beginning to end. The closing scene scores right up there with "Carrie".
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, amazing special effects.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This was a good storyline backed up with some great acting...by Kyra Sedgwick and Jeffrey Dean Morgan? NO! The kids ruled in this movie. The children projected some great acting and I was thrilled and scared the entire movie.
Most possession movies throw things at you just to startle you and even though this one did that a few times, it wasn't overdone. When I was on the edge of my seat or hiding my eyes behind my hand, it was because of the story and plot, not because they were going to flash something scary on screen for a second with a loud audio cue.
Good job, it's been many year since a possession movie has given me what I paid for. Thanks!!
Pros great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Sam Raimi has produced a nice variation of an exorcist film. Rapper Matisyahu is the exorcist in his first screen role and does quite well in the part. Kyra Sedgwick and Jeffrey Dean Morgan ( a Javier Bardem clone) play the divorsed parents of a girl who becomes possessed by a dibbuk. Natasha Calis plays the daughter (EM) who morphs slowly into a victim. There is little by way of special effects or the usual formulas. This is strictly old school. Its a refreshing change. Its nothing special, but its a solid horror film with some decent acting and worth seeing.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Not a Bad Movie. Could have been Thirty minutes longer to incorporate more Horror and character development into it. Brisk movie pace. I would recommend it.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
