"Although this ‘dramatisation' purports to be an accurate record of the events as they occurred, that doesn't mean it can't also wallow in the sheer sensationalism of it all. With a pumping soundtrack by Charles Bernstein accompanying the entity's gratuitous attacks, and some early prosthetics from Stan Winston depicting invisible fingers groping at Carla's more tender bits, The Entity dispenses with all subtlety in favour of shock value. But when you're dealing with facts, how far is too far? Technically proficient, visually impressive and frequently scary, The Entity remains a highly entertaining bit of widescreen eighties hokum that delivers some genuine jolts, an over-earnest performance from Barbara Hershey, and a premise that's so outrageously unbelievable it must be true!" - Nigel Honeybone, HorrorNews
