What REALLY Happened To The Entity?

- Possession is a relatively common topic on this channel and show and that’s probably because it’s something that has been recorded and pushed as factual by the people claiming to be possessed or investigators for a long time. It generally falls under the scope of what he said/she said, with most of the presented evidence as fact being very up for interpretation. The Entity is an entertaining and original movie that pushed some boundaries, but how close is it to the purported true events that happened to Doris Bither? Keep your eyes and ears open for the signs of a vengeful spirit as we find out what REALLY happened to The Entity.

This scared the living crap out of me as a kid. It's still scary now.
Yeah, it's WAY more scary than anything out nowadays.
Oh yes!
AGREED!
I think it’s scarier now as an adult, now that I can comprehend things better…yikes 😫
@@brandonpage7087don’t make ‘em like they used to!!
One of the best, most shocking horror movies I've ever seen. And knowing it's inspired by a true story sends chills down the spine.
I only saw it once.
That was enough.
In a good way.
True story aspect always adds extra chills 😱
The music freaked me out. It was like doors banging.
Yes! My parents let me watch this as a young kid and I remember laying in bed alone with that noise playing on loop in my head 😅
Tarrantino is a big fan of the score and uses that bit of music quite effectively in Inglorious Bastards.
God. Damn. I’ve been saying this for YEARS. _The Entity_ is hands down ones of the best ghost movies EVER and needs to be in the top 10 horror movies of all time. That final ‘goodbye’ scene…nightmares! Iykyk
The music is incredible in this movie.
Absolutely fantastic film. She wasnt possessed yes, but so badly haunted! One of Barbra hersheys best performances.
This film was one of the scariest films I ever watched back then and im a 47 yo man.the atmosphere, music and Hershey realistic performance is still top 3 best horror films to keep me up at night.lol.nothing else especially modern films dont hold a candle to originals.
I remember seeing clips of this on the 1986 compilation video "HOLLYWOOD GHOST STORIES" as a kid. The entity attacking her in the bathroom was intense.
So excited to see you cover this somewhat overlooked gem! I'm currently working on a kind of deep dive into the case and the movie for my little channel. There were some great little details here that I hadn't uncovered! Thank you!
This is still one of the scariest movies ever, to me. I've done some research into the real life case, out of curiosity, & discovered that there's actually very little known about Doris Bither, herself. In fact, she remains largely a mystery. I imagine, what little we do know about her, came from her oldest son, & Barry Taff, & his colleagues. It can't even be 100% confirmed what year she died. Not to mention, the infamous photo shown in this video, of her sitting on her bed, is the only known photo of her, & you can't see her face. Though, this is the first i've heard of Doris's neighbors corroborrating hearing & seeing things happen, in the house. I'd love to know more info about that. Point being, there's still so many unanswered questions, concerning this case.
Great video! I've always thought this movie was just as frightening as "The Exorcist." I first watched it as a twenty-something in the 80s on premium cable TV and the intimacy of the small screen in my bedroom gave me a greater sense of invasion of my personal space. When it was over I heaved a sigh of relief, until I saw the credits come up at the end...
"The attacks, though decreased in frequency and intensity, continue."
and it made me gasp and shudder and do a quick look over my shoulder!
I remember my aunt driving us from Hollywood Video to Blockbuster to find this on a Friday night….brutal scenes I wish I hadn’t seen so young 👀
One of my favorite horror movies of all time. Watched it when I was a kid. Scared the hell out of me.
I just ordered this on blu-ray from Shout Factory yesterday. It'll be a first time watch for me and I'm pretty hyped.
Woman goes to town on herself.
( Kid walks in )
"MOM!"
( MOM keeps going)
"It's a ghost sweetie, nothing to do with me".
This is a film lots of people forgot about or have never seen, and it's a shame because it's so good. I was lucky to find it on fvd some years back, but I'd like to own it on VHS since it was a tape I often saw at the rental stores. I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it yet.
Watching it on TV in the early 80s I was terrified! And I loved it!❤
Same here!
I don't know how The Entity doesn't get more recognition. It's both a truly scary ghost story and a chilling metaphorical portrait of domestic abuse. This should be a classic, but it got trahsed by critics (talk about real review bombing). Great acting and practical effects, and an awesome score!!! Thanks for covering it, it really needed a truthometer treatment to understand the "inspired by true story" label...
This was a VHS rental in the 80's when I was a teen. I remember it being a very intense movie. I should give it a rewatch. For me though, SiDney J Furie's best movie is THE IPCRESS FILE. The best spy flick ever made.
Saw it on HBO years ago back when it came out a year later.
I didn’t get to see this movie until I was a teen but I’m sure if I had seen it as a kid when it came out, it would’ve scarred the ever loving crap out of me forever 😂
I saw it as a young adult, & it still scared the ever loving crap outta me, lol!
This movie delivers the shock. Saw this about 3 times in early 80s. Barbara is so good looking.
The film that comes to mind when I think of Sidney J. Furie is always Lady Sings the Blues.
Watched this last week, on DVD, now I know why, my Dad loved this actress, Barbara Hershey she's beautiful.
👍👍👍🇦🇺
When I watched this movie as a child, I didn't know or understand what the entity was actually doing to Carla. I just thought it was hurting her. Everything about the film scared me: the music, the attack scenes. But when I got older and finally understood what was truly happening to Carla, it made it even more terrifying.
Agree. Wish more people talked about it
This is a chilling film, especially since it's a metaphor for sexual assault, and how the victim usually finds it difficult to convince others of the seriousness of the situation.
Many thanks JoBlo.ive had this book for years and haven't read it..
This film is one the best scary movies in history…until they debunk it like the Amityville Horror
The music makes the film.
Another Charles Bernstein classic with A Nightmare on Elm street. The sound effects onnthe attacs are part of the score, I thought it was sound design!!!
The reason Barbara Hershey was in Insidious.
I watched George Romero's "Dawn of the dead" at the age of 10 and I laughed my butt off. I watched "The Entitiy" at the age of 18. I wasn't laughing anymore. This was intense.
Highly recommend the book by Frank de Fellita
I hated the beat the started up when the Entity was there. I found it very distrubing.
Yeah, it's one of the most disturbing things about the film, cause you know an attack is coming!
I love the entity but never see it being streamed or sold anywhere.
I've found some copies, on eBay.
@@brandonpage7087 I have a few hundred films but all on iTunes I got rid of my Blu-rays to save space I’m gonna have to have a secret Blu-ray collection 😀
They released a Blu-ray a few years ago
It was released in the 2000's on DVD, i rented the movie and made a back-up.
Besides the excorcist, this is the scariest film ever made.
The Entity was Harvey Weinstein in invisible form
The entity made a cameo appearance in Scary Movie 2 😜
Such a great movie.
You forgot to mention that Doris also abused drugs. Green mist and flying blue balls. Give me a break. Still, it was a good film.
Believe it or not, there's a Bollywood version of The Entity.
Complete with dance numbers?
Title?
I was 12 when I first saw this movie, I went to bed wearing a pair of jeans and TWO belts. 😳
Not really a possession movie though?
Not entirely true. The dude possessed and dispensed orgasms
Probably found a newer model to wear out...
The score is VERY loud..
Its a pretty good movie, i 1st saw it when i was a kid and it freaked me out and i saw it last year for the 2nd time and it still holds up.... but its a product of its time cause it would not happen today with a million cameras everywhere.... at least we know this movie wont be rebooted or remade for the "modern audience"
@mathieuduval7544, right, cause it's far too problematic to be rebooted or remade for today, which is a good thing, lol.
the rapiest ghost in town
Yup. I bet the other ghosts want nothing to do with him.
Not seen this movie but I suspect the premise is every woman's fantasy.
Actuakky, Barbara Hershey is most well known as the mother of the Evil Queen in ONCE UPON A TIME.
...and sticking to horror, she got to appear in the failed THE OMEN TV series.
only in your head, kid.
I own this on Scream Factory collectors edition bluray and really found it a little weird at first but it began to come together and really was well directed and gripping. I've seen scarier horror films but I love the dialogue and performances, especially seeing really funny outdated cultural norms such as a room full of doctors and surgeons smoking profusely while having a meeting. Single motherhood definitely wasn't the norm then so was interesting to see for the time. That doctor psychologist dude is also in Timecop and i enjoyed his dedicated performance. Recommended for fans of 80s horror thrillers.
The Entity still ranks as the scariest ever, for me.
