Iron and Myth 49: Demons in Hollywood

from A View from the Bunker · host Derek & Sharon Gilbert

SOME OF the largest grossing movies in Hollywood history feature depictions of demonic possession. They're terrifying, but are they realistic? Pastor Doug Van Dorn (DouglasVanDorn.com), author of Battle for the Bible’s Truth: Genesis, Jesus, and the Second Century Plot to Deny the Messiah and award-winning screenwriter Brian Godawa (Godawa.com), best-selling author of the theological thriller Cruel Logic and the new novel Daniel: Exile in Babylon join us to discuss the accuracy of films like The Exorcist, The Conjuring, Paranormal Activity, and Nefarious, and whether they have value in presenting supernatural evil in a way that can encourage discussions of spiritual truths.Sadly, our friend Dr. Judd Burton (BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant, was unable to connect due to technical problems, an issue that will be corrected for next months's discussion.
