The Entity' Poster
Carla Moran, a hard-working single mother, is raped in her bedroom by someone — or something — that she cannot see. Despite skeptical psychiatrists, she is repeatedly attacked by this invisible force. Could this be a case of hysteria or something more horrific?

Slow and brooding, but ultimately a hard movie to give any kind of praise for as so much of it is just spent between her home, the hospital and with her children, where specific parapsychology events occur. This movie could have been easily an hour shorter and still not really accomplished much in telling of the case of Carla Moran, whether it was all real or not, or simply physical events of The Entity portraying themselves to others. The movie would have you believe it was a real paranormal activity. Barbara Hershey must have a thing for paranormal films since she went on later to do the Insidious franchise.

This gets a lot of hype for being a scary film, and it's really not. It's more of a true life drama based on a haunting that.... probably never really happened.

Or at least I'm skeptical about it.

The main problem is that it tries to show a little too much. The first rape really didn't, and th More

Pretty bizarre but also unique supernatural movie featuring a great performance from Barbara Hershey. While the final act was a bit lame considering what happened before, still worth checking out if you haven't already.

Probably will watch the documentaries on the real life aspects on Doris Bithe More
