Based on a true story, The Possession is the terrifying account of how one family must unite in order to survive the wrath of an unspeakable evil. Clyde (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and Stephanie Brenek (Kyra Sedgwick) see little cause for alarm when their youngest daughter Em becomes oddly obsessed with an antique wooden box she purchased at a yard sale. But as Em's behavior becomes increasingly erratic, the couple fears the presence of a malevolent force in their midst, only to discover that the box was built to contain a dibbuk, a dislocated spirit that inhabits and ultimately devours its human host. -- (C) Lionsgate

Review For The Possession

Director Ole Bornedal doesn't add a single idea of his own.
Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader

There may be need for an exorcist, but the power of Christ isn't going to compel the Jewish demon wreaking havoc in this competent but shopworn horror film.
Keith Staskiewicz-Entertainment Weekly

The first half of The Possession is suitably atmospheric and reasonably creepy.
Stephanie Zacharek-Film.com

The film is basically a compendium of possessed-child clichés reaching back to The Exorcist.
Adam Nayman-Globe and Mail

Another horror movie about a little girl possessed by a demon? Seriously?
Rafer Guzman-Newsday

The script, credited to Juliet Snowden and Stiles White, adheres so closely to formula that it's possible to predict not only which characters will end up dead, but in what order ...
Lou Lumenick-New York Post

Puppet-master technique and a generally well orchestrated sense of moodiness help this chiller deliver on more than it botches, despite a fumbled third act.
Brent Simon-Shockya.com

"The Possession" offers a few scares here and there. But, mostly it's a retread of spooky films that went before.
Paul Chambers-Movie Chambers

The movie is well-appointed if not terribly well thought-out.
Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com

Isabelle Adjani and Sam Neill give mesmerizingly out-there performances as a troubled couple trying to hold it together for their young son.
Betsy Sherman-Boston Phoenix

While frustratingly vague in terms of character and motivation, The Possession is among the more competent of recent studio horror efforts. If only that wasn't the best thing I could say about it.
Rob Humanick-Projection Booth

When it comes to exorcism movies, the Catholics have the Jews beat
Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit

Disquieting, lush in style, and most importantly, emotionally engaging, The Possession is a throwback to celebrated cinematic horror of old.
Jeremy Wheeler-TV Guide's Movie Guide

In lesser hands, The Possession would simply feel like a blatant rip-off from horror days of yore. Yet Bornedal's well-crafted feature proves far better than expected.
Ed Gibbs-The National

The Possession fails to differentiate itself from standard exorcism stories and movie experiences - even if it is 'Based on True Events.'
Ben Kendrick-ScreenRant

... a stale and shameless rip-off of The Exorcist ...
Jim Lane-Sacramento News & Review

Benefits from a sympathetic lead performance by Jeffrey Dean Morgan...
John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)

Underwhelming supernatural horror picture - somewhat creepy but easily forgettable.
Susan Granger-SSG Syndicate

Borndel delivers just what is expected for a visual horror film, but besides the reference to dybbuks, there is nothing at all new or fresh.
Mark R. Leeper-Mark Leeper's Reviews

The problem . . . is that all the spooky hokum has gotten in the way of what might have been a nicely rendered family drama about the toll of divorce
Andrea Chase-Killer Movie Reviews

Much better than it needs to be given its late-summer horror flick placement.
John Wirt-Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA)

The story of the box itself seems more frightening, whether you believe it or not, than this assembly-line tale of a young girl whose suburban family is haunted after the Dybbuk inhabits her soul.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com

[Director] Bornedal never slows it all down enough to give you time for the hairs on the back of your neck to wake up.
Graham Young-Birmingham Mail

This effective little creeper is the only Judaic pastiche of The Exorcist you're likely to see this year. That alone gives it a jump on the umpteen other evil/possessed-child films that have become a seemingly monthly genre staple of late.
Marc Savlov-Austin Chronicle

Offers nothing new without being actively terrible.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy
