writing short-stories and novels
#8
This can be answered in the same way that Rabbi Yitz answered above about reading books that contain blasphemous parts. The question is if the movie will influence you in an adverse way. Personally my advice would be not to continue watching such movies unless you feel personally strong enough not to accept any of the heresy that may be in the movie, and that these dramatizations will not effect you in any way.

If you have children, you should be *especially* cautious about letting them view such movies, because children have strong imaginations and are much more accepting. They are liable to believe that such things exist and are exciting to pursue, or they may develop fears of imagined evil creatures and spirits, etc, and thus weaken in their faith and trust in G-d.

However, movies that dramatize and glorify the idols and the idolatrous services of false religions should not be watched, because of the prohibition against turning to idol worship.
