I never came across a DVD called Anneliese: The Exorcist Tapes. But I do came across Paranormal Entity 3. And let that be the same flick. Pure commercially chosen that title but be advised. It had nothing to do with paranormal entities. It is in fact a pure possession flick. It was based on the story of Anneliese Michel.
Anneliese Michel (21 September 1952 – 1 July 1976) was a German Catholic woman who was said to be possessed by demons and subsequently underwent an exorcism. The case has been labelled as a misidentification of mental illness, negligence, abuse, and religious hysteria. When she was sixteen, she suffered a severe convulsion and was diagnosed as having epilepsy. Soon, she began hallucinating while praying. In 1973, she suffered from depression and began to hear voices telling her that she was "damned" and would "rot in hell". On 1 July 1976, Anneliese died in her sleep. The autopsy report stated the cause of death as malnutrition and dehydration from almost a year of semi-starvation while the rites of exorcism were performed. She weighed 68 pounds (30.91 kilograms). Three motion pictures, The Exorcism of Emily Rose (2005), Requiem (2006), and the Asylum film Anneliese: The Exorcist Tapes, are loosely based on Michel's story.
Horror buffs will have noticed one word, The Asylum. Again, Asylum films tried to pick in on the success of a blockbuster. sadly they failed. The flick has nothing to offer. The first second I laughed out loud already by seeing a so-called German. What a cliché that was. Not only that, they tried to let English actors to speak English with a German accent. It sounded like inspector Clouseau...Further we have a lot of priests just talking and stating in front of the camera about Anneliese. Anneliese herself didn't look possessed. She looked like a girl waking up with her eye make-up still on. Nobody really was convincing. What was interesting was the use of real audio footage of Anneliese but sadly they edited it 3 times into the flick.
A very annoying turkey, maybe if you watch it p*ssed and proud you do will have a laugh. The only thing that it had in common with the paranormal entity franchise was the nudity (boobs) in it. And they do distract you from the story. Maybe her juggs were possessed?
