PR女郎之試鐘誘惑

　　律師艾琳（勞拉·琳妮 Laura Linney 飾）接到一樁官司。一名神父由于用宗教手段——驅魔儀式來治療女孩艾米莉的重病，因而使得艾米莉耽誤了正確的藥物治療時間。法庭上，一場宗教與科學之爭展開了。　　事件的開端，源于19歲女大學生艾米莉（珍妮弗·卡彭特Jennifer Carpenter飾）的恐怖遭遇。她在大學宿舍睡覺時，感覺有靈異惡魔來侵，接下來更為驚悚的事情陸續發生。艾米莉一反常態，她變得雙眼發黑，行為怪異，整日活在猶豫惡魔纏身的夢魘中，艾米莉無法控制自己的意志，痛苦得生不如死。家人為她找來精神病醫生，卻毫無起色。無奈下，請來神父（湯姆·威爾金森 Tom Wilkinson 飾）一探究竟，才得知艾米莉被遠古六惡魔上了身。萬魔纏身的她，只有通過宗教儀式進行驅魔，才有可能逃出生天。　　神父的驅魔并沒有挽救艾米莉，還引來了控告。無神論者卻認為，惡魔纏身是無稽之談。

　　The main character is Dr. Max Holst, a successful neurosurgeon. One day an intense little man named Steinmetz shows up, who has the real ability to create objects out of thin air, using only his mind. As no one believes him at first, he is held at a ward for mental patients, but manifests the key to his door and escapes. As he has a special interest in Dr. Holst, Steinmetz subsequently invites Holst to his large mansion, which is full of expensive paintings and sculptures, and proves to him that he can in fact materialise objects. Steinmetz’s abilities are evolving by leaps and bounds, and is progressing from being able to create objects only to being able to create living things. His ultimate ambition is to be able to create a human being. He tells Dr. Holst that if he will only perform a certain brain operation on him, Steinmetz will become able to attain his goal. He’s got all the necessary equipment set up in his basement. Dr. Holst, however, is too spooked by the whole thing to agree to this mad scheme, and refuses. Steinmetz then sets about manipulating Holst’s life, to pressure him into performing the operation. By then Steinmetz has become able to create a temporary human being, and in the hope that he can perhaps make his own creation perform the operation, he manifests a doppelganger of Dr. Holst. This double proceeds to take over Dr. Holst’s life, creating chaos for him professionally and personally. And then Dr. Holst starts fighting back. The ending has the dual virtue of being both unexpected and satisfying.
