Incarnate (2016)
Dir- Brad Peyton
A young boy is possessed by a malevolent spirit being carried by a homeless woman. A team led by Dr. Seth Ember is called in to evict the evil presence, but he soon learns that this demon may be one he has encountered before. Incarnate was directed by Brad Peyton and starred Aaron Eckhart and Carice van Houten. Incarnate is unique in possession movies for its protagonist insisting that demons, as described in the Bible, aren't real but are evil forces looking to take over human hosts. The film is terrifying but follows the usual possession trope while introducing concepts used in films like Inception. Aaron Eckhart is quite convincing in this challenging role, and Ms van Houten is entirely unrecognizable as the mother given her role in Game of Thrones. With so many demonic-themed movies released in the past decade, Incarnate does introduce some new ideas and is genuinely scary.
