Well obviously it was made as a horror movie for entertainment purposes. Exorcisms are scary and a frequent basis for horror so naturally it makes sense to make it a horror movie to showcase the exorcism parts. But not only that, a horror movie can and frequently does have deeper meanings and a point to make.
You said the movie wasn't good because they didn't develop Emily's character. I was just saying I disagreed with your review because I didn't think it was important to develop her character because it wasn't important to the movie. Like I said, just my thoughts.
