Description

Based on a shocking true story! Oscar-nominee Barbara Hershey (the Insidious series, Black Swan) stars as Carla Moran, a hard-working single mother whose life becomes a nightmare when she is attacked in her bedroom by someone—or something—that she cannot see. Disbelieved by her friends and dismissed by skeptical psychiatrists, Carla begins to lose her grip as she is repeatedly attacked in her car, in the bath, and even in front of her children. Could this be a case of hysteria, a manifestation of childhood sexual trauma, or something even more horrific? Seeking help from a group of daring parapsychologists, Carla will attempt an unthinkable experiment: to seduce, trap and ultimately capture the depraved spectral fury that is The Entity.Bonus Content: Inner Strength: An Interview with Actress Barbara Hershey Seeing is Believing: An interview with Actor David Labiosa High Dread: An Interview with Composer Charles Bernstein Spirits & Sprocket Holes: An Interview with Editor Frank J.

    • Overlooked gem. Great Scream! Factory release

Sidney Furie’s (The Ipcress File, with Michael Caine)1982 film The Entity is "based on a true story", adapted by Frank De Felitta into a novel and subsequently a film screenplay. The actual case of Doris Bither, otherwise known as the Entity Hauntings, is a sad story that most likely had no true connections to supernatural phenomena; however, The Entity as an adaptation certainly enhances some of the events of those “hauntings” into a surprisingly adept look at emotional and psychological trauma and the plight of a single mother attempting to understand her real phenomena while being unknowingly misled by modern science unwilling to allow for mystical acts of nature. Barbara Hershey (Hannah and her Sisters, Scorsese's Boxcar Bertha) plays the afflicted woman Carla, who, as the film explains, has experienced her own fair share of psychological and physiological abuse in her past. The first half of the film finds Furie focusing on Carla’s interviews with Dr. Sneiderman (the always great (RIP) Ron Silver, Reversal of Fortune, Blue Steel and co-star of Chuck Norris' horror/chop-socky hybrid, Silent Rage) after she experiences a supernatural rape and nonsexual assaults. The psychological focus allows the audience to understand Carla as a protagonist and also gives reasoning why she would be left open to these kinds of paranormal attacks; it also forces the viewer to question whether Carla’s experiences truly are part of her own psychic hallucinations. Both Silver (he'll be missed) and Hershey (an early "adult" role - she was usually cast as a hippy - adopting the name "Barbara Seagull" during her marriage to David Carradine didn't help) give great performances and play off of each other very well. The first hour of the film is some of the most rich and rewarding, not only because of the various attacks in Carla’s home – all quite disturbing due to their sexual nature, sometimes taking place in front of her young children – but also because the film brings up interesting questions about how to define real and imagined trauma. There is a moment, though, where The Entity presents two paths the film could travel. One is more problematic, that Carla truly is hallucinating these events making her a weak character that is a constant victim. However, De Felitta and Furie choose to take the film in a different direction, treating the entity as a literal manifestation of a dark force and dropping the psychological exploration in the second hour for a paranormal investigation. While some may not like the direction, it is arguably the better decision: the paranormal entity is a real force for Carla to overcome and not some psychological trauma that she has carried with her over time, and it allows her character to strengthen and progress from the timid woman at the beginning of the film. In this sense, The Entity showcases a great example of a fully realized woman throughout. Hershey’s character has overcome past abuse; she’s forged a life for herself and her kids despite some bad experiences; and at the end of the film, she’s found a strength in battling the entity despite its constant presence in her life, even after the film ends. There’s no perfect resolution in The Entity, and Carla’s hauntings presumably continue; but Furie shows us that she’s figured out how to confront the beast, like waging a war. It’s indicative because of the entity’s only piece of dialogue throughout the film: “Welcome home, c***.” It seems sinister, but more than that, it’s a verbalized threat meant to scare because the entity’s actions no longer affect Carla the way they used to. There’s a powerful motif here, and thankfully it doesn’t rely on Carla’s past vulnerabilities. Furie’s film is often spooky and disturbing, with some great special effects from the legendary Stan Winston and his crew. Charles Bernstein helps by providing a memorable score, and the cast puts in an excellent performance. The Entity might not have the same visceral scares as The Exorcist nearly ten years before it, but its more sexual focus is a welcome addition to the paranormal genre. In many ways, this is an overlooked gem in the horror genre (though many seem to be appreciating it more and more). The extras and specs: NEW Inner Strength – an interview with actress Barbara Hershey - still looking great - you'd never recognize her performance as Mila Kunis' psychotic stage-hag of a mother from Black Swan. NEW Seeing Is Believing – an interview with actor David Labiosa NEW High Dread – an interview With Composer Charles Bernstein NEW Spirits & Sprocket Holes – an interview With Editor Frank J. Urioste NEW Audio Commentary with author/filmmaker Daniel Kremer (Sidney J. Furie: Life and Films) Trailers From Hell - The Entity with audio commentary by Luca Guadagnino (Suspiria - 2018) The Entity Files Featurette (about 45 minutes). One of the better "making of" extras that buyers of physical media love and expect.

Pretty sure it would be a great movie to rewatch...IF I COULD WATCH IT!!! It’s Region 2 which, admittedly, I failed to see when ordering. Y’all should make that type stuff bigger, lol! Or, before finalizing sale have a prompt that says “we notice you like in the US. This movie is formatted for UK. Are you SURE you want to purchase?”. No but it’s absoluteky my fault so no one else gets the blame. Think you could send me one I can watch though? PLEASSSE?!??! lol ... show more

    • Solid ghost story
For a full description of the plot, etc., read other reviews. Just some quick thoughts on this supernatural thriller... The Entity (1983) stars Barbara Hershey in the lead role as a woman with two kids who moves into a new house and then strange, disturbing things start happening to her. I don't want to give anything away, so watch the movie and see for yourself. This movie is one of the better ghost story/paranormal type of horror movies that I've seen. It will creep you out for sure. There are some rather disturbing scenes of an adult nature, but the movie is highly entertaining. The musical score is quite different and good. Barbara Hershey gives an outstanding performance as Carla Moran, the victimized woman. The special effects are great. The acting overall is great by everyone involved. The Entity. See it. Or don't see it. ... show more

    • "The Enitity" Strikes On Blu-ray
Scream Factory releases this controversial paranormal film from 1982 starring Barbara Hershey and Ron Silver on Blu-ray in a fine HD print, porting over all the old Anchor Bay extras and including new ones like an audio commentary, numerous on-camera interviews with cast and crew, trailers, still galleries, etc. A must have for collectors(comes with a slipcover) though subject matter will turn some people off. Interesting to compare this with "The Conjuring" film franchise of today, though of course this case/film has no connection to. ... show more

    • Frightening
This is an extraordinary and realistic depiction of a manifestation most likely involving a succubus. I have had first hand experience with manifestations of malignant entities that have attached themselves to particular individuals. This movie realistically depicts some of the phenomena that I have seen as a result of such attachments. This movie was frightening to me for many reasons including the fact that it was based on a true story and based on the fact that I have seen similar manifestations personally. This movie spurred me to do some research on Dr. Barry Taff and I would recommend that anyone who is intrigued with this this story should do similar research. The movie does embellish the original story , but the embellishment is well woven into the story. I bought the DVD version of the movie and it contained an interview with Dr. Taff , a theatrical trailer and a photo and still gallery. This version also contained a pdf of the original screenplay which can be accessed on a computer. I have read reviews that suggest that the blue ray version of the movie issued by the same provider (Anchor Bay) , only includes the movie. While the Blue Ray might have more visual appeal, I think that the additional material provided on the DVD is of much more value. ... show more

    • ENTITY IS GREAT, DROPPING THE EXTRAS IS NOT
Good film and nice to have on BluRay at last, but do not expect ANY of the Extras on this new version as seen on the DVD, they have all vanished. There isn't even a menu, what does that tell you? :)

    • "Beware Of The Incubus!"
This is about a ghost name Incubus "rapist of women" (look it up in demonology) rapes a mom name Carla with 3 children in a house but it follows where she goes. She goes to a Dr. Sneiderman (bad idea, they thought it was about her.) but when she meets couple of paranormal investigators in the library they attend to help her out. But in the end you'll have to see. It is based on true event. Shout! Factory gave this great sound and picture quality. Great special features of the film. Great performances and roles by Barabara Hershey & Ron Silver. I recommend it if you're fan of ghost genre. ... show more
