The Unborn
Glenn WhippPerhaps unhappy that Catholics get to throw all those exorcism parties in the movies, David Goyer gives us a demon story in The Unborn infused with Jewish folklore, the Kabbalah and, gulp, the memory of Auschwitz. By that description, you'd think the result would be unintentionally funny, deeply offensive or some combination of the two.
Mostly, though, the movie is something of a snooze, a gabby PG-13 horror flick whose most shocking image might be the bored look on Gary Oldman's face as he goes through the motions of playing the rabbi in charge of dispatching the film's damnable demon to somewhere over hell's rainbow.
Goyer, writer of the Blade series and co-writer of Christopher Nolan's Batman movies, begins The Unborn with what lo...
The Exorcism of a Dybbuk!
This is a somewhat interesting film to watch, especially since some parts reminded me of scenes in 'The Exorcist' (twisting heads etc..).
It's essentially the story of an exorcism of a dybbuk (a malevolent spirit that refuses to leave the human world and inhabits the body of a person) who wants to be born now.These little buggers are not so easy to send back from where they came from!Obviously until the end of the film everyone is kept guessing as to why this dybbuk is hounding Casey Beldon.
The story is extremely predictable and at times not very convincing.Every so often I'd be distracted by the main actress' incredibly bad skin that is very unusual to see in a Hollywood film.Perhaps the fact that I was distracted like that meant that the film was at ti...
Dear God its one giant Cliche
I went to see this at the cinema insterad of of valkerie...BIG MISTAKE!
Take every stupid horror film cliche ever...like, stabbed girl crawling slowly up the stairs while killer walks calmy up behind her.
Add a dash of totally overused 'lets exorcise the monster out' from a very old very big book (which she somehow steals from the library)and lo and behold it comes out !! Lots of blowing wind and swishing lights!
Then make the girl half naked most of the time walking around in just jeans and tshirt in the snow, (oh plus her good looking boyfriend of course)
Not forgetting the typical best mate who doesn't believe her and goes around saying 'girlfriend' and wobbling her head a lot.
Oh dear! most of the cinema was in hysterics at this f...
