Today I talk about the American movie "My Best Friend Can Exorcism".
Title My Best Friend's Exorcism (2022), alias My Best Friend's Exorcism / My Best Friend's Exorcism / My Best Friend's Exorcism / My Best Friend's Exorcism.
This film is adapted from the novel of the same name by Grady Hendrix.
events set in the 1980s, Abby and Gretchen were a pair of best friends. They had a lot of the same hobbies and maintained friendship for many years, especially those supernatural things.
One day Gretchen suddenly changed her temperament and her behavior was strange, which was completely different from her before. Abby concluded that her best friend had been brought to the devil, so she asked some unreliable friends for help and began her exorcist journey.
The time background of this film is at least after June 1988, because a magazine appeared in the film.
Abby and Gretchen read the magazine "The SEVENTEEN". The magazine was first published and released in June 1988, priced at $1.75. The cover was 13-year-old Mira Jovovich . The devil that appears in the video is Antotu (Andras).
Antos is one of the 72 demons recorded in the book Raymond Gaiton written by Solomon and was named Marquis of Hell. This demon has a human body, winged angel body and an owl's head. He rode a black wolf, holding a saber in his hand, using people's anger to provoke discord, and sometimes even directly eliminated people.
"My Best Friend Can Exorcism" is a comedy horror movie belonging to young people. What the film wants to explain more is that high school life may be hell on earth.
To be honest, this film has nothing particularly scary. As someone who has left school, I don’t feel that there is anything that can scare people. More of the film is the pretending moan of a boy who does not know the taste of sorrow. At the same time, the director spent a lot of effort on presenting the nostalgic theme of the 1980s, which weakened the horror atmosphere.
The only thing that makes people feel scared is the suffocating despair atmosphere in high school. In order to cope with the college entrance examination, high school students practice questions and exams every day, lacking enough sleep, and it is really like being possessed by a demon.
At the same time, high school was also the time when young people secrete hormones the most vigorously.
The bodies of young men and women are undergoing rapid changes, and hormones dominate their various strange behaviors, which is very similar to the effect of demon possession. The film cleverly embodies these changes into a demon, exploring between being straightforward and exiling demons.
People under happy education also have their own worries when they are in high school. As a representative figure, Abby has to face all kinds of challenges that teenagers can encounter, from acne appearance anxiety to inappropriate crush on the teacher. Many things that seem unworthy to adults have become major events in life that plague these teenagers.
Her good friend Gretchen suddenly became a disgusting incarnation of campus bullying, and the person involved seemed to have his own sky collapsed.
video is neither a powerful comedy nor a novel horror movie. It can only be said to be an interesting attempt to combine two elements.
Generally speaking, exorcist movies contain a strong religious meaning, but here the religious elements are just an embellishment, Christ has not become the existence here that defeats everything, and the restlessness of teenagers is the theme. The final destination of the video is relatively common. Good friends use the power of friendship to defeat the devil, and female best friends use the friendship between girls to overcome the fear of high school.The final winner is friendship, not religion, which cannot be said to be very regular, but it is not too innovative.
teenager horror movies,
high school students overcome fear.
