Okay, call me a pervert, but?


Were they just tryingggg to have as many shots of the daughter showing almost her panties the whole time? she is what, 10 years old or 11?

reply

I noticed it and sorta wondered why she has so many panty shots. But who really cares.

reply

Huh? The only time I saw anything was when she was scrabbling away from her father in the hospital and it looked like shorts the same colour as the hospital gown. As for all the other people complaining about these supposed scenes, go back to the 17th century.

Edit: Ok, you can see her underpants in the exorcism scene, but only if you slow it down and do a frame advance. Still...so what?

I noticed that too. was kind of gross.

I did notice the underwear shot in the hospital, but that didn't bother me very much (pedophiles can probably take the most innocent picture and use it for their own purposes). What WAS bothersome was the slow shot of her in the bathroom mirror when she is wearing a tight, long tank top. How many times have we seen that exact type of shot in a horror movie - but on a grown woman? IMO it was sexualizing her. In addition, the "new look" once she was possessed - eyeliner, T-shirt dress and boots? She looked 20.

When I was a girl in the '80's, we wore oversized t-shirts and underwear to sleep in. Even at slumber parties with adults present. However, the shirts came down to mid-thigh at least. I realize she was supposed to be going to bed at home, but since this IS a movie, I think they could have put some shorts on her. I felt that scene was inappropriate.

I say this not as a pervert, but as a thirty year old woman with a young niece - I would not feel comfortable with that little girl being made to look ten years older or have a film that slowly focuses on her legs from behind.

They're coming to get you, Barbara!

I can't believe there's 5 pages on this topic...

The real perverts are the ones complaining. The rest of us didn't think twice about it.

I definitely got that vibe too. With the underpants scenes and the older daughter. Kinda... egh... It was extremely weird. I liked the movie a lot and thought it had some legitimately scary moments. But yeah.... weird. Strange.

reply

you could also see her nipples at one point several times and also when she jumps on her mum you can see her bum

reply

Yeah, that was a nice shot.

Her nipples UNCOVERED??? I think you just made that up 'cuz I'm pretty sure I would have remembered THAT! Even if they were only 1 second at a time!

reply

How about when her nightgown blew up that one time and you could totally see her clit.

reply

Just finished the movie. I'm a pervert man and I didn't realize those many shots at least not in a exagerated or inappropriate to me.

reply

the scene at the PT room during exorcism, when her eyes turned all white and her face is "evil" it kind of take the "childness" away from her face, makes her look older, then the camera slowly show her long perfectly shaped shiny (shaved?) right legs then at the end of the shot is a glimpse of her panty, then i realize it seems im looking sexually at an older teens legs. then she turned around and it shows her bulging panty which is normal to pre-teens and not sexy for me.

as if those 2 scenes are different persons or "age".
