Yeah I know it has been ages, but in my defense after seeing the Rite I got the flu. It was terrible, and i didn't want to think about any movies for a long time. Of course then I had the guilt for not keeping up on my goal of posting, so that too delayed it. But without further ado...
The Rite! The movie is about a troubled seminary student Michael that comes from a family of undertakers. Michael is sent to Italy to take a course on excorcism, where he meets Father Lucas (Anthony Hopkins). In the end Father Lucas becomes possessed and Michael has to attempt an exorcism despite his lack of belief.
While I will admit that Anthony Hopkins does creepy really well. The film was over all a let down. I like to judge a scary movie by how creep-ed out I am after the fact. I have flashes of scary movies in my head going back to early childhood. I thought nothing more about this film from the moment I walked out of the theater. Plus there was this tacky scene towards the end when Father Lucas's face goes all blackened and demon like, it was soo lame.
Final Verdict.. Don't bother go rent a classic horror
