ISBN: 9781705966723
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
The title reveals the main audience being addressed in this book, but others can profit from this information. A genuine concern for the many in Hollywood and the music industry who have overdosed on drugs is expressed by the author, who was born in 1946. This book contains graphic details of dozens of demon-possession cases who sought help and found freedom from controlling demons. And a detailed account of how and why it took several weeks to cast demons out of a haunted house will give insight on how intense demonic spiritual warfare can be. More than 75 demonic manifestations that occurred in the house are listed. Information on how common haunted temples are is given. Also, the author encloses a chapter about his lifestyle from childhood to the present, which includes various struggles he went through and how he now lives a victorious life. In details from a dream when he was about 6 and a supernatural occurrence, he explains how God called him to help people with demonic problems and cast out demons. Various details on how demons/evil spirits afflict and deceive people are presented to educate the reader. His concerns for people who choose Psychics and witchcraft rather than Jesus are evident. The way Psychics and fortune-tellers get their information is revealed to the reader. In the end, a fervent appeal is made to the reader, music industry, and Hollywood as a whole to repent of their sins and follow Jesus for abundant life and eternal life.

Dark Places
Author: Barry Curtis
Publisher: Reaktion Books
ISBN: 1861895755
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Horror films revel in taking viewers into shadowy places where the evil resides, whether it is a house, a graveyard or a dark forest. These mysterious spaces foment the terror at the heart of horror movies, empowering the ghastly creatures that emerge to kill and torment. With Dark Places, Barry Curtis leads us deep inside these haunted spaces to explore them – and the monstrous antagonists who dwell there. In this wide-ranging and compelling study, Curtis demonstrates how the claustrophobic interiors of haunted spaces in films connect to the ‘dark places’ of the human psyche. He examines diverse topics such as the special effects – ranging from crude to state-of-the-art – used in movies to evoke supernatural creatures; the structures, projections and architecture of horror movie sets; and ghosts as symbols of loss, amnesia, injustice and vengeance. Dark Places also examines the reconfiguration of the haunted house in film as a motel, an apartment, a road or a spaceship, and how these re-imagined spaces thematically connect to Gothic fictions. Curtis draws his examples from numerous iconic films – including Nosferatu, Psycho, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Shining – as well as lesser-known international works, which allow him to consider different cultural ideas of ‘haunting’. Japanese horror films and their Hollywood remakes – such as Ringu and The Ring, or Juon and The Grudge – come under particular scrutiny, as he explores Japanese cinema’s preoccupation with malevolent forces from the past. Whether you love the splatter of blood or prefer to hide under the couch, Dark Places cuts to the heart of why we are drawn to carnage.
