SOURCE-Netflix Streaming
Saw the trailers for this film when it hit theaters and thought meh might watch it in a few years. Then heard some good reviews so changed that to OK will watch this when it hits streaming. Forgetting that now stuff hits streaming 5 weeks after theaters.
Russell Crowe is the Pope's Exorcist. He is sent to an old abby in Spain. Where a family has moved. They were trying to renovate the abby ,so they could sell it. The work crew ran off when one of them got burnt by a gas leak. Then the woman's son gets possessed.
Was expecting your standard Exorcist ripoff. But glossy and full of cheap CGI. Nope they gave us more than one twist. A good chunk of the FX work looks practical or at least a practical base with some CGI help on top that.
Really really surprised at how much I enjoyed this. Not as good as Song of Solomon. But for me better than the Exorcist. OR at least this entertained me more than any viewing of the Exorcist.
