The Exorcist Series
-
I've watched two installments of the film.
The latest Emily Rose sparked certain interest to know how many believers believes in spiritual warfare and possession and delieverance/exorcism.
Wondering how much will believers rate the accuracy of the accounts(in the films) in terms of doctrines and theology.
cheers -
i have.. no ideas at all.
the only exorcism i witnessed was the teachers praying out aloud back in sec school. -
But interestingly, from wat i heard, The Exorcist (1970's) prior to the later one: The Beggining, all crew died one after another..Originally posted by M©+square:I've watched two installments of the film.

There are all together four installments of Exorcist.
The Exorcist
The Exorcist II : The Heretic
The Exorcist III (Suppose to the titled as The Dominion)
Exorcist : The Beginning
Ya, it's rated M18 actually likely because it's notorious for the disturbing images and sensitive issues on religion and faith.
Yeah, it somewhat messes up the mind, and it's definitely not those movies which shock you and make you feel the thrill.
Kinda real.
Remember SG banned the movie 'Witchcraft' for it's explicit demostration and language?

Can someone explain why the demons all have cool names like cain, baphomet, baal, judas etc etc

Is it because they usually manifest so that they are understood by people around? Easier to install fear that way.Originally posted by Chin Eng:Can someone explain why the demons all have cool names like cain, baphomet, baal, judas etc etc

As for the cool names... maybe that time they were not in fashion leh? -
ha ha... wouldn't it be fun to have maybe Jack Neo do a movie on exorcism in Singapore, get this white dude priest demand a name from a demon possess fella and a deep voice coming out and say "guan si tua kui, wah keo kow kia"...Originally posted by sillyme:Is it because they usually manifest so that they are understood by people around?

So now we know demons are linguists....
The cool names... sounds like a WWE franchise. -

Johnnie, it's not asking if the movie is true.Originally posted by John The Baptist:It's just a money making movie. So cant be 100% true.
Let me try again.
1
I'm asking how many of the believers here believes in exorcisim, deliverance, spiritual warfare and possession.
2
Next, i ask how accurate is the movie version of exorcist compared to Catholic's or Protestant's doctrine.
I am not asking if the movie is money making neither am i asking if it is true.
Regards -
I believe spiritual warfare is true.
If I am not wrong, I read that when an exorcism is authorised, it is always conducted by two persons. This is not the same from what we see in the movies which usually shows one person. -
