"A story so shocking, so threatening, it will frighten you beyond all imagination." Solid tagline, dudes. Sadly, it only delivered about 80% of that, and that's coming from someone (me, duh) who has this in her top 10 favorites. Based on Frank De Felitta's novel of the same name and directed by Sidney J. Furie, "The Entity" was filmed in 1981 but didn't see a worldwide release until 1982 (US release was in '83). The 70's and early 80's saw an influx of supernatural/demonic films in the horror genre because who doesn't love a good possession, amiright? And probably because, for the same reason found footage films are so big right now, it works and we're intrigued.
