The Antichrist (Italian: L'anticristo), also released as The Tempter, is a 1974 Italian supernatural horror film directed by Alberto De Martino and starring Carla Gravina, Mel Ferrer, Arthur Kennedy, Umberto Orsini, Alida Valli, Remo Girone, Anita Strindberg, and George Coulouris.

[4] Ippolita, the adult daughter of wealthy Rome aristocrat Massimo Oderisi, has been paraplegic since a car accident at age 12 that also killed her mother.

Having been reliant on her father since the accident, Ippolita has developed severe attachment issues, aggravated when she learns that Massimo has begun a relationship with a woman named Greta.

Dr. Sinibaldi determines that Ippolita has strong extrasensory perception and believes that her disorder is caused by unconscious memories of past lives.

The family maid, Irene, hires a local mystic to attempt an exorcism, but the possessed Ippolita exposes him as a con artist and expels him from her room.

She reaches the Colosseum, but is felled by the sound of church bells, allowing Massimo to force her hands against an iron cross and finally expelling the demon and its child from her body.
