When any film incurs user-comments that are at a 180 degree variance from one to the next, the odds are it is the subject itself which is the catalyst behind the emotion. Despite this weakness Barbara Hershey's performance still holds up well today. And you don't even now if believe in this entity till the end, you got two points of view and you can't even understand which is the real one (do you think is obvious that there is an entity? Actually, "The Entity" isn't a haunted house movie as much as it is a haunted person movie since the ghost or "the entity" only follows the main character around. 5 out of 5 found this helpful.

There are some scenes that are kind of laughable, but for me "The Entity" provided more scares than laughs. Single mom in southern California is repeatedly attacked by a violent sexual predator--one who is a poltergeist. Hershey gives a terrific performance in an early film role that could have been demeaning but isn't. Sneiderman fears that Carla's delusions are becoming mass hysteria.

Released against the wishes of the authorities, this D.V.D. She is victimized in her bedroom and the bathroom; the thing also takes control of her car and does a lot of damage as the story plays out. Was this review helpful?

I dare you... I still get the chills every time I think of this film. Look back at the leading ladies who dominated entertainment in the 1980s, making their mark with iconic movie and TV roles (and some major hairstyles, too). You're wrong. It would have been nice for the filmmakers to give us the possibility for interpretation, but we see these attacks outside of Carla's point of view. 4 out of 4 found this helpful.

The biggest problem has to do with the psychologist.
There are few scenes that you can't easily forgot. As a woman, the thought of an unseen entity consistently sexually abusing you is about the most horrifying thing I can think of. It scared the crap out of me then... Now I am 30 and it still scares the crap out of me. What makes this movie darker than say "Poltergeist" is that we hardly ever see the demon that causes all the trouble. I remember seeing The Entity when first when I was around 11 or 12 late night on HBO.

Of course I'm gonna be scared by it." The thing that strikes me interesting about this movie is that it's supposedly based on fact! 16 out of 19 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? The script is a big handicap because the dialogue isn't as smart as the characters or the actors, and when Hershey is asked at key moments to describe her circumstances, she suddenly starts babbling like maybe she really does need a team of doctors. A woman is tormented and sexually molested by an invisible demon. She seeks help first from a psychiatrist (played by Ron Silver) who she feels ain't helping her. Opening credits start, and I'm already shivering. I saw this film in 1981 and it scared me like no other. Most of the times disturbing scenes (a la "Last House on the Left") provoke repulsion but in this movie they manage to create fear and a feeling of uncertainty.
2. I mean, yeah, Freddy Krueger is a creepy guy, but does he exist? The beautiful Barbara Hershey, giving a performance of conviction and grim determination, plays Carla Moran, a single mother of three who starts to be raped by an unseen antagonist, a crazed force of frightening strength and persistence.

But in the subsequent scenes and the days following, there is no mark on her lip. Then she runs into a group of parapsychologists who think have a solution to get rid of this entity. 7 out of 10 found this helpful. "The Entity" is a well made horror film about a supernatural phenomenon tormenting a woman by sexually attacking her repeatedly. With Barbara Hershey, Ron Silver, David Labiosa, George Coe. Barbara Hershey gives a very strong performance as Carla Moran, the woman who one night has her life turned upside down when she's raped by an unseen mass.

I'm watching this in 2016 for the first time (when this movie was realized I wasn't even born) and I can honestly say that is one of the best I ever seen about this genre.

Jerry (Alex Rocco) swears that he saw Carla's body being manipulated by an unseen force, and Dr. Sneiderman still believes it's all just in her head. "The Entity" is a scary movie for it's scenes.
