Synopsis: Based on the true 1976 case of German student Anneliese Michel, 19-year-old college freshman Emily Rose (Jennifer Carpenter) has visions of devilish faces and experiences constant convulsions. After much dispute, the Catholic Church officially recognized her demonic possession. Emily's story is told in flashbacks amid a courtroom drama, wherein Father Richard Moore (Tom Wilkinson), the man who performed the exorcism, is accused of negligence resulting in Emily's death. The trial shows his tough-as-nails lawyer, Erin Bruner (Laura Linney), doing her damnedest to clear him of any and all charges.

My Review: The movie's kinda slow and quite emotional, as things open up slowly and steadily gripping the audience with chills and fear... not that scary anyway. But the storyline is awesome and Carpenter (the possessed girl) has acted really well indeed. Now in the trial, the case is looked upon in either ways - a scientific approach to Emily's condition as well as a religious one!
And what more, the title says that its based on a true story. Amazing chillin' movie... check it out!
