This is essentially a Big Dumb Object story, but what makes it different is that most of the book is spent discussing what to do with it, and setting things up, than actually doing anything to/about the Excession.

That won't hold up in court, and it won't hold up for any discerning filmgoer, either, who may wonder why they never heard about the murderous US marines/house painters who came back from Iraq under the influence of a demonic hex. ![]() Eric Bana and his exaggerated Noo Yawk accent star as Ralph Sarchie, an NYPD sergeant whose “accounts” have been adapted for this supernatural spookfest. ![]() ![]() This wonder that they have is now further lightened up with these wonderful Children's books.
