El Ente Ratings & Reviews
- Angie_Sue6 de abril de 2025This is the kind of movie you don’t watch at night by yourself. I wish this movie was streaming. Barbara Hershey is an amazing actress!
- MrMitchie15 de febrero de 2025The Entity is considered a cult classic by many, having watched this a few times in my life since I was about the age of 18 still gives me the creeps, why? because this type of paranormal actvity is actually been documented in the past as has truth behind it. Unlike ghosts, an Entity is easiest explained as a ghost who can physically move objects or interact with the real world which makes them way more scarier than any ghost story. Barbara Hershey plays her role perfectly and the story is paced well with some gripping moments. This movie is a must watch before-you-die flick.
- jackmeat13 de enero de 2026My quick rating - 7.0/10. I remember watching this one on the Showtime box we had growing up before cable was a thing. Barbara Hershey plays a woman (Carla) who is attacked and raped repeatedly by some supernatural force, from what I recall. Back then, I didn't worry about things like how well it was acted, etc., so I am paying more attention to those aspects this time around. As if being raped isn't terrifying enough, she continues to be abused by something or someone she cannot even see. A complete tour-de-force type performance in this flick by Hershey. Even worse still is that this film is based on a true story of a woman from the 1970s, and it reads even more frightening than what we see here. Ron Silver also turns in a great performance as the doctor and friend to Carla, who tries to understand and help as best as he can while trying to come to grips with an unbelievable story that is being told. The sound that is used is so effective in creating the tense atmosphere needed whenever the demon shows up and is very reminiscent of how you feel when the Jaws theme plays. Doesn't take more than a few notes done right to peak your fear. The camera work that Sidney J. Furie orchestrates does something to really heighten the situation even more, as all the male figures' faces are rarely shown, so Hershey's attention is fully front and center. The men will speak, often off camera, and then subtly will be shown, but by then, your focus is already entrenched in Carla. There was another evil spirit type movie in 1982 that really garnered attention, called Poltergeist, and with good reason. That movie found a way to scare you in a sort of fun, Hollywood-style way. This movie will just creep into the back of your mind and scare the shit out of you, male or female. Everything is done so well to make it feel realistic and draw you into her character's plight, not only to be believed but to survive. Definitely should be on any fan of horror's list of must-watch flix since it still holds up 40 years later.
- Patrick and Nancy9 de octubre de 2025This film still freaks me out today.
- Scott Thomas20 de octubre de 2025I finally watched this classic. I'm not disappointed at all. I only wish I had seen it when it first came out and the special effects were not so dated.
