'The Rite' Film Delivered Extreme Exorcism Scenes With Anthony Hopkins

By Mike Stack


"The Rite" horror/thriller movie recently released into theaters by New Line Cinema. I checked it out,and felt it was pretty good. It showed a lot of extreme exorcism scenes Anthony Hopkins. The flick stars: Anthony Hopkins, Colin O'Donoghue, Alice Braga, Ciaran Hinds,and Rutger Hauer.

The film revolved around Michael and Father Lucas. Michael is a new Priest who has issues with his own faith. He doubts the Devil exists as well as these so-called Demonic possessions. The film often showed flashbacks to Michael's childhood where he first started to develop his faith issues when his father died.

Michael heads to Italy to study exorcism with Lucas because his teacher thought he might need to gain some deeper experience with exorcism since he doubted it so much. In just a few minutes after his arrival at Lucas' house,he gets his first introduction to a live exorcism with a girl who is pregnant,and goes in and out of possessions.

Even after Michael sees a ton of convincing evidence of possession,he still feels doubt for the faith. The possessed girl spits out nails,blood,her voice gets crazy deep,her body contorts,along with other kinds of weird stuff,but Michael still swears she just needs to see a psychiatrist for this issue.

Eventually, Michael starts getting issues of his own,which were brought on by weird dreams he had about his dead father. Father Lucas tries to help him through his issues. However, Michael's doubting faith gets put to a major test when the demon possesses someone he never thought it would possess,and if Michael doesn't collect some faith fast,his life and other's lives are definitely in danger.

Michael and his girlfriend are standing in the room while the possession is going on,and things get very rough. Michael gets put in a very dangerous position,and has to deal with his faith issues and problems with God to overcome what is getting ready to destroy him. The conclusion was very intense and kept me on the edge of my seat.

The flick was extremely entertaining and interesting. However, there were some slow times during the film,and I found myself dosing off for a little while,but things did pick up in a major way. It delivered a lot of "can't miss," emotional moments. The exorcism scenes were amazingly disturbing and convincing. I gave the flick a strong B rating.
