December 15, 2014A young and talented artist with a knack for art restoration helps a collector purchase a statue of a man on a cross. Then she goes to a party and happens to see her mother cheating on her father with a man who likes to whip her with rose stems. Afterwards, she goes to her studio to work on some art and dreams about the statue coming to life and raping her. It seems like a dream, at least, but then she starts showing symptoms of being possessed. Her parents try to get her help and eventually send her to a church for the priests to take care of her. The demon from the statue tries to get her to seduce a priest to take his soul but the priest's will is strong and he is able to exorcise the demon before things get too out of hand. The first third of this movie was well worth watching, mostly for the bizarre, shock-value factor. The last two-thirds seemed like an excruciatingly boring rip-off of 'The Exorcist', which was too bad. If you track down a copy and decide to watch it, you might be better off stopping it around half an hour in.
