1408 Director Takes on 'Last Rite'
Wednesday, April 1, 2009

Mikael Hafstrom - who I thought did a pretty solid job on 1408 for Dimension Films - is set to direct Last Rite, a fact-based thriller scripted by Michael Petroni. Based on a nonfiction book by Matt Baglio, the film tells the story of a young man who joins a seminary and is soon recruited into the Vatican's newly formed Exorcism School. There, he confronts the demonic and discovers his true faith by facing the devil. Exorcisms seem to be the new cool in Hollywood... someone call me when it's done right.

Video realised by Phil R.XP of REQUIEM ETERNAM about the real exorcism of Annelise Michel who inspired the movie Exorcism of Emily Rose.

That youtube clip was a little freaky. Your right BD, nobody has gotten the demonic possession movie done right since the mother of them all THE EXORCIST. Emily Rose was not bad. It had a few moments. Rosemary's Baby is right up there. A couple other demonic movies that were creepy were "Beyond the Door" and "The Sentinel". Scared the shit out of me as a kid.

I've always felt so bad for Anneliese Michel. The shit that poor girl went through. I think EXORCISM OF EMILY ROSE did an excellent job with a realistic portrayal of possession. The EXORCIST (despite how great it was) is really far fetched and hard to believe. I trust Hafstrom. He knows what he's doing.

I thought 'The Exorcism Of Emily Rose' was a great film also!
