In Case 39, family services social worker Emily
Jenkins thinks she has seen it all... until she meets 10-year old Lilith
Sullivan and the child's cruel and dangerous parents. Her worst fears are
confirmed when the parents try to harm Lily, their only daughter. Frightened
for her life, Emily enlists the help of Detective Mike Barron and takes Lily in
while she continues the search for the perfect foster family. Just as it seems
as though Lily is on her way to a more loving home, under the guidance of Emily
and psychiatrist, dark forces surrounding this young girl come to light and,
little do they know, their attempts to protect her will only bring on greater
horror. (Paramount Vantage)
The most
frightening part is at the alternate ending when Emily careens through the
harbor gate and drives the car off the pier into the Bay just as in the
theatrical ending. As the car sinks to the bottom and fills with water, Emily
struggles to lock Lillith in the trunk. Emily then attempts to swim to the
surface of the water. However, the demon grabs Emily's foot to stop her swim
away(Oh nooo!!). Emily struggles and eventually breaks free as a trapped
Lillith sinks to the bottom (Fuhh..). Emily climbs atop the pier and attempts
to recover from the ordeal.
The music
used in that part is suspending and hair-raising. Plus, the scene which takes
place beneath the water leads to more dramatic effect. I cannot see clearly the
movement of the heroine and the demon in the water because of the shocking
music. It can make me screaming hysterically. For me, everything occurs
underwater is mysterious and frightening. I am also very afraid to watch the
demon grabs the heroine’s legs once she is to the surface. What a shocking moment!
Wooofff…My heartbeat runs crazily fast watching that madly frightened moment. I
don’t want to see it, I don’t want to see it, pleaseeee..(Closing my eyes).
