So i went into this knowing next to nothing about the movie, and i hardly ever expect anything from "horror" movies i haven't heard of before, but halfway in i was wondering if this wasn't supposed to be a comedy. In fact i found myself laughing quite a bit at the "acting", but the reactions of all involved seem to indicate that this was meant to be serious matter, with some ridiculous dialogue delivered with straight faces.
There are scenes that try to up the drama factor, but end up being parodies of themselves, tales of possession (complete with flashbacks) that would fit in well with the Scary Movie franchise, yet the tone of all listening takes it seriously.
I have to say that the demon makeup is not bad at all, yet once again veers easily into parody territory. The overacting of the main "exorcist" complete with the extremely silly dialogue and situations leave me wondering what the intentions of the filmmakers were.
As a satire/parody i would give this a 6 maybe, but as a pure horror movie it is barely a 3 (almost all for the demon make-up).
