I took Amy to see The Last Exorcism. A likable fundamentalist preacher is making a documentary about how he has faked exorcisms for the past 20 years by taking a camera crew with him to his "last exorcism." He shows how he arranges for sound effects and how he uses fishing line to pull over vases and pictures. He hasn't lived a sham so much as his faith has changed, and he has a strong belief in the science that recently saved his son's life. The only hitch is that for the first time, he seems to have run up against the real thing.I mean that's great! I was delighted with the concept and execution with (as the critics I like are saying) the exception of the last two or three minutes.
