1974年4月某日凌晨3点左右,纽约长岛阿米蒂维勒区一幢三层别墅发生一起灭门惨案。雷安家的小儿子罗纳德趁着父母兄弟沉睡之时,用来福枪将他们一一射杀。事后罗纳德声称,当时自己的身体被人进入,身不由己犯下滔天大罪。虽然法庭最终为采纳他的辩辞,但关于这栋闹鬼别墅的传言却甚嚣尘上。一年后,事先毫不知情的鲁兹夫妇(James Brolin & Margot Kidder 饰)以极低的价格买下了雷安家的别墅。当他们搬进来不久,怪事便接二连三地发生了……本片根据真实事件改编。 ©豆瓣
When, at the beginning of Deus Irae, Father Javier stares at a crucifix, his expressions and his hands suggest that the nerves are consuming him. A flashback reveals that this priest devotes his life to visiting families that claim to have seen things that do not belong to this world and cleansing their homes from the demons that try to possess them. But, upon returning to those houses, he notices that the evidence is always destroyed. This way, he discovers that a clan is after him, and must decide whether to hide from them or join them. In times when horror cinema tends to fall into the hands of directors that seek to build narratives that are introspective and close to reality, Pedro Cristiani goes back to old-school horror, where gore and the physical experience are above any other kind of feeling. A cinema that places the camera in front of the faces of the bloodiest demons and, instead of giving logic to them, chooses to face them whatever the cost.
