The subject of Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub’s Der Tod des Empedokles (The Death of Empedocles, 1987) is the Greek pre-Socratic philosopher Empedocles (c. 490 BC – 430 BC), who lived in the Greek colony of Agrigentum in Sicily. His theories are mentioned in several of Plato’s dialogues. He maintained that all matter is made up of four irreducible elements: water, earth, air and fire. A mystic and a poet, he is considered to be the founder of classical rhetoric. He is also thought to be the last Greek philosopher to write in verse; two fragments of his works survive: Katharmoi (Purifications) and Peri Phuseôs (On Nature). An advocate of democracy, he came into conflict with his fellow citizens of Agrigentum and, as result, was banished with his young disciple, Pausanius. When he was asked to return, he preferred to commit suicide by throwing himself into the active volcano at Mount Aetna.
The German writer Friedrich Hölderlin wrote two versions of Der Tod des Empedokles in 1798 and 1800, and a final third version in 1820, all three ultimately unfinished. They were conceived as five-act tragedies and all three differ in plot. According to Michael Hamburger, Hölderlin’s English-language translator,
the main reason why Hölderlin finished no version of the play must be that he remained too closely identified with Empedocles, at the very period in his life when his own view of the poet as philosopher, prophet and priest – and as tragic hero – was subject to perpetual crisis and re-examination.
Huillet-Straub’s The Death of Empedocles is based on Hölderlin’s first version (the longest of the three), whereas Black Sin is based on the third version.
The exorcism of god，英语好的同学们可以多读几遍，对，就是这个意思，如果普通exorcism后面隐藏的定语是of demon，那这个片名要表达的意思就很明显了
驱上帝的视角挺棒的，就是电影里欧洲的驱魔永远都是比拼大喊大叫就挺无聊
我要用撒旦尼克大拳把这个电影的导演无编剧全部咋烂 一分滚蛋
剧情起伏安排的非常合理，从头到尾都不会无聊。傲慢与偏见内核假结婚场景设定，总体来说很有趣！
很久没看过味道真的纯正的驱魔片了。整部片子中规中矩，不过不失。尚不具备独立驱魔能力的牧师在第一次驱魔过程中收到魔鬼诱惑，引发了一段18年的孽缘。18年后魔鬼得到了它想要的，没想到上天也打出了对应的手牌。
制作精良的驱魔电影，很多镜头超级恐怖，非常值得一看
其实镜头语言的叙事不太理想，没啥出彩点，但背后的驱魔新颖点挺错愕的，最后几分钟让人醍醐灌顶感。所以所谓代表上帝的梵蒂冈究竟是披着羊皮的狼吗？恶魔已经接管人间？所谓驱魔实际就是反向驱魔。不过随便想想，也许这样能解释这世界有时让人错愕的魔幻和邪恶
对驱魔电影无抵抗力 片中鬼一惊一乍的倒是有点看疲惫了。
驱神仪式绝对会成为一个新的里程碑式的经典邪典。视觉表达太不恐怖了。恐怖的内涵更多偏重于对信仰的拷问，这一点和灵媒有共通之处。
驱魔流程的地狱反套路，信念到底有没有底限，一窥而知。
老牧师也是神预言，梵蒂冈高层有内鬼，只有相信自己是上帝，是圣人，才能驱魔。
没有什么新意，带有一点点软色情，低于驱魔片平均水准，不要浪费时间...
译名不对味，预告片比实际内容紧张刺激
反向驱神的脑洞太大了吧，故事情节相当精彩！
消磨时间看看挺好的，不用动脑子，完美大结局，你好我好大家好～男主真的蛮帅的，哈哈哈哈哈
神父驱魔靠嘴炮，无聊死了，演员演技也差，煎熬。
外国驱鬼也太方便了，念念有词就行。我要是鬼，第一下就去割掉他的舌头。
好久没看这种片子了 电梯和酒店那两段看得我….
卧槽第一次有这种角度的驱魔！但是拍的也太烂了
剧情一般，但是上帝与恶魔斗法的情节设定还是很有新意的，我愿称之为欧美驱魔片中的翘楚！
