The Cloth (2013)
2/10
EXORCISMS 'R' US
11 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
The film opens with a wonderful upskirt and camel toe we haven't seen since the likes of "Poltergeist." Danny Trejo is a priest performing an exorcism, which is not his long suit. Everyone dies, and so does the film. Trejo has a later cameo in a flashback. Another in a long list of film in which Trejo is billed far beyond his role.

Meanwhile young Jason is recruited by "The Cloth" because calling the film "Exorcisms 'R' Us" wouldn't sell. They are a secret Vatican God Squad who go around performing exorcisms. Lately, business has been picking up as all hell is about to break loose, similar to "Ghost Busters" but not as fun. Young girl chasing Jason (Kyler Willett) is the one who can save the world from the evil doers.Lucky us.

The plot isn't half bad, if they had stuck to the grindhouse music and style instead of invoking entertainment killing "Lifetime" dialogue. The acting was extremely poor with Lassiter Holmes, Kyler Willett, and Rachele Brooke Smith unable to deliver a line. Eric Roberts is a creepy looking priest. I liked the scene of Jason armed with a squirt gun filled with Holy Water, although they failed to make the rest of the film that entertaining. Think: Super-soaker.

And where do demons from hell go after you kill them? Detroit?

Parental Guide: No f-bombs, no nudity. Implied sex.
