The Vatican Exorcisms

In reality, this film is like a documentary. In the middle of the film, he starts to get more boring and "very forced". Joey tries to make a suspense air in some scenes that don't worked for me. This film could be better if Joe invest more in a "found footage" or a realy mockumentary, like Lake Mungo or Cropsey.

I gave it a chance, but a lot of shouting, it bothered me a lot, the prayers and such, just ... This cover scares me more than the movie, but just in case I decided to watch it in the morning, right ... Even trying to be one realistic documentary, it didn't work ... A lot of shouting for nothing ...

I thought it was actually a pretty good film. I'm not typically a fan of these found footage movies, but this one worked. There is no over the top special effects and the scare moments are actually scary because they aren't made unrealistic by too many special effects. The contortionist in one of the scenes added a terrific level of creepiness. The only criticism I really have is the use of the scary music takes you away from the idea that this might actually be a "found footage movie. The acting was decent and the story was good. Glad I took a chance on this one. I don't know why it's getting bad reviews, people don't appreciate something without a million dollars of special effects.

Or found footage or shaky cam or whatever else you want to call it. One thing is for sure: It is low budget and it shows. That doesn't mean that some of the "exorcisms" does not look interesting in itself. But it feels like an episodic (and is kind of build that way too) TV show, where you get the exorcism of the week segment ... over and over again. Until the last one of course ... Not that the end of the movie itself will satisfy people either.

If you give the filmmakers a break for the low budget, I'm not sure if you'll give them one for the weak structure this has. Also the camera shaking can make you dizzy or at least annoy and unnerve you a lot. It is called horror, but sometimes that "works" for all the wrong reasons in this movie ...

the Vatican exorcisms is the title for release in the UK, the original title is "the truth about devil". I advise you not to look at this as a movie, look no plot, this is a good documentary with real exorcisms. if you're looking for a horror movie with lots of special effects, is another film, this is a good mix between a real and fake, to me personally makes me scared, maybe, i live in Naples city and local newspapers here have talked about strange events linked to this documentary. The priest "don Luigi" is real, he works in a church in Naples and is a famous exorcist. I think that the director we've played on this in post production, release for marketing, but perhaps it was better to sell and install this for what it is; a documentary !!
