As Anna’s frenzied behavior becomes ever more alarming, Mark discovers a truth far more sinister than his wildest suspicions.

From its hypnotic opening moments... ...to its absolutely terrifying final moments, “Possession” is a singular work of art that, now seen in its intended form, deserves consideration as one of the supreme horror films of its era.

Chato. Diretor viajou na maionese. Não queria chegará lugar nenhum. Obra de arte? Pra mim obra alucinógena.
