The Exorcism of Emily Rose is a movie that combines courtroom drama with supernatural horror, taking inspiration from the tragic tale of Anneliese Michel, a German woman who underwent exorcisms before her death in 1976.

This real-life case is very controversial, with some people saying she was possessed, and others saying that she was a victim of mental illness. The movie talks about the legal battle that took place, playing out the struggle between faith and science. Even after such tragedy, the movie itself will always be a fearful film of possession and spiritual redemption.
