As a veteran member of a South Bronx precinct, NYPD Sgt. Ralph Sarchie (Eric Bana) has seen more than his share of dark and horrifying events -- so many that they have begun to poison his soul. Sarchie further finds his beliefs and understanding pushed to the limit when he and his partner investigate a particularly bizarre incident. He forms an alliance with a renegade priest (Edgar Ramírez), who tries to convince Sarchie that real evil -- and demons -- do exist.

Critics Consensus

Director Scott Derrickson continues to have a reliably firm grasp on creepy atmosphere, but Deliver Us from Evil's lack of original scares is reflected in its shopworn title.

I'm so baffled by this movie's rating. This is one of my favourite horrors. Really astonished to see it has such a low score.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great movie, especially because of Eric Bana 🙌 however, the plot was albeit predictable plus @least 50mins should have been left on the preverbial cutting floor 🙄

It's my type of motion picture, Deliver Us from Evil, 2014...directed by a famous filmmaker, Scott Derrickson and produced by a well known, Jerry Bruckheimer...besides, basing on a 2001 non-fiction book entitled Beware the Night by Ralph Sarchie with a good story teller journalist, Lisa Collier Cool...a sound English actor, Sean Harris...with acting Father, Édgar Ramírez, a Venezuelan...and finally an Australian actor, Eric Bana preforming great...

You would only hate it if you do not know the bronx on a paranoid rant from a down high. Joel Mchale was utterly excellent and I actually laughed out loud when he ask "Do you think she is single" You have to know a demon girl to appreciate that. A good movie for me is how good the supporting actors are whose name you do not know. Definitely captures the New York darkness. This was really one of the best possession type flicks. Heroic acting and lovable real wife issues by Olivia Munn. This was a five star at King Arthur's Round Table.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Despite Derrickson's firm grasp of style and atmosphere, the story is overlong and filled with clichés.

The acting is superb, the storyline intriguing. In order for a movie to hold my attention, it needs to present like a page-turner & that, it most certainly did.

It's hard not to want to avert your eyes and that makes up, marginally, for the otherwise clichéd screenplay.

This is a smart blend of cop drama, thriller and paranormal elements.

Independent (UK)

The director Scott Derrickson seems uncertain as to whether he is making an exploitation pic intended to give audiences a few fairground-style thrills and frights, or a William Friedkin-style meditation on the nature of evil.

Rated: 2/5

Deliver us from Evil is quite a good horror movie, though it falls short of anything like greatness. It has a fantastic cast anchored by the aforementioned Bana and Joel McHale, and features some truly grotesque imagery and tense situations.

Deep Focus Review

Formulaic storytelling and glaring plot holes plague a film that tries to balance horror and cop procedural tropes into a half-hearted meditation on Christian faith.

Rated: 1.5/4
