Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaJennifer Carpenter's audition was so convincing and scary that the director decided to cast her right then.
- GoofsWhen Father Moore recites the Lord's Prayer he incorrectly quotes a line as "Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heavenly", so substituting "heavenly" for the correct word "heaven". "Heavenly" is nonsensical in context and not an error a priest would make.
- Quotes
Father Moore: Tell me your six names!
Emily Rose: [possessed] We are the ones who dwell within.
Emily Rose: [in Hebrew] I am the one who dwelt within CAIN!
Emily Rose: [in Latin] I am the one who dwelt within NERO!
Emily Rose: [in Greek] I once dwelt within JUDAS!
Emily Rose: [in German] I was with Legion!
Emily Rose: [in Assyrian Neo-Aramaic] I am Belial!
Emily Rose: [in English] And I am Lucifer, the devil in the flesh.

Featured review
With the exception of the title, " Emily Rose" vs "Anneliese Michel", this was an excellent adaptation of the book. Actually, one of the consultants was Felicitas Goodman, the author and anthropologist who studied this case and I believe, owns the audiotapes of the ritual.
It is actually more of a court room drama. However, there is no sparing of pure psychological terror. All and all an excellent movie. Other posters have observed that believing in Christianity or the lack thereof, is not shoved down the viewer's throats. It allows one to form their own opinion.
My only concern; the PG-13 rating. Way too intense for viewers 10-13 years old or younger.
