The fifteen year-old Emma Evans (Sophie Vavasseur) has an argument with her mother Lucy (Jo-Anne Stockham) since she wants to go to a concert in London with her friends Rose (Isamaya French) and Alex (Tommy Bastow). Emma immediately has a convulsion and her family takes her to the hospital, but the doctors do not find any physical problem. Then her father John (Richard Felix) tries to convince his wife to send Emma to school, instead of homeschooling, but she prefers to keep Emma in the family-based education. Lucy sends her daughter to the psychoanalyst believing that she has psychological problems and Emma asks her friend Rose to record her session of hypnosis though the cellular but the doctor dies along the session. When Emma listens to the tape, she believes she is possessed by the devil and asks her parents to be submitted to an exorcism with her uncle, Priest Christopher Taylor (Stephen Billington). However her skeptical mother is against the ritual and recalls that Chris was responsible for the death of a teenager, Ana, in the past in an unsuccessful exorcism. But when Emma levitates in the kitchen in front of her family, her parents call Chris. The priest demands to move to their house; to film the ritual of exorcism alone with Emma; and advises that Lucy and John should never believe in the devil's words. When Emma's little brother Mark (Lazzaro E. Oertli Ortiz) is hit by a car and dies, Emma confesses to her mother that Chris has taught her how to summon the devil. Then she used an Ouija board and her blood to be free from her family and the devil has possessed her. Her revelation, associated to her discovery about the real motives of the exorcism of her uncle, leads her family to a tragedy.
"La Posesión de Emma Evans" is a dark film of horror with a quite predictable story but a surprising twist. The Irish actress Sophie Vavasseur has a good performance in the role of a girl that is possessed by option by the devil and sees the end of her former affectionate family and the insanity of her uncle. My vote is six.
Title (Brazil): "Exorcismus – A Possessão" ("Exorcismus- The Possession")
