Jacob Chandler is just an ordinary man with an extraordinary gift. The epitome of the accidental exorcist, Jacob and his nephew Liam have forged a career clearing demons from the bodies of their clients. Of late, something has changed, as possessions increase and Jacob fights to keep those he loves safe, the burden weighing heavy on his shoulders. When his path crosses with Liam's new girlfriend, Atalie Carlisle, he recognizes something in her dark, broken gaze. She too can see the damned. Jacob never expected to meet anyone else like himself, nor did he anticipate needing her help. When summoned to a hauntingly beautiful homestead with a tragic past, Jacob must call upon all his experience and Atalie's untrained powers, to uncover the layers of demonic deception at play.

Anton Bitel Sight & Sound With even the demons being little more than mischief makers, this comes surprisingly without much sense of peril, or even of narrative closure - but with plenty of good-natured charm. Dec 8, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Shondell M The director seriously drop the ball on this one. The story premise was good. The script seemed pretty good. The actors and their characters are likable. The way the story was told did not support the talent and the script. The director seems to have technical know how in terms of getting cinematic looking shots, but he doesn't seem to know how to use film, lighting, timing, and sound to create emotions in the audience (except for boredom). The director missed a lot of opportunities to deeply engage the audience. The story wasn't cohesive or well focused. There was no sense of intensity, dread, consequences, or danger. Could have been a sleeper hit. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Rating: 6/10. 60/100 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/05/23 Full Review Francois M Fairly standard exorcism stuff. Worth seeing. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/26/23 Full Review cyber b Worst movie ever in my entire life as a film lover. I've seen bad movies, but this is an a abuse. How you can manage comedy on a film about satanic possession if it's supposed to be an horror movie? That exorcist don't have any knowledge about demonology and it is so ridiculous how he expulsses those from his body after the exorcisms and blows them into the earth after a stupid shaman ritual not situable for a demonic possession. Bad design on the demon's makeup and disappointing because the first's one appearance makes you really think it is going to be a great story. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Jerod S Jacob is an exorcist of a different kind - one that stumbled upon his ability to expel demons from others. While shaking his hands, he asks them to say their name and exorcises the spirit. It's a B film and mostly the acting shows it. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
