My boss recommended this to me a few years ago and gives me shit pretty regularly for not watching it. In the spirit of DVRfest, I am officially catching up and finally crossing this off the list.

It's actually decent! Starts off pretty standard - don't mess with Ouija boards during an eclipse - but some of the gags are well done and the lead actress does a fine job portraying the growing torment as she gets messed with by spirits. The ending takes on a full 'based on true events' vibe which I thought was interesting. A google search later and apparently it is! And it's a very famous incident in Spain! That kind of paints the movie in a whole new light, making it more of a Spanish Exorcist than anything else.

I guess I can no longer fault the film for staying close to the genre...

OK room for one more tonight. The one I was planning on watching Friday night. Let's see if I can stay awake through it.
