Synopsis

Father Lankester Merrin thinks that he has glimpsed the face of Evil. In the years following World War II, Merrin (Stellan Skarsgard) has traveled far from his native Holland in a desperate attempt to escape the memories of the horrors he witnessed there. His faith in tatters, Merrin drifts through Africa, and there is employed as an archaeologist to find an ancient relic within a recently unearthed Byzantine church in Kenya. But beneath the church, something much older sleeps, waiting to be awoken?

  1. Pretty pointless

    06 December 2008
    Why is there another Exorcist sequel? The first movie is one of the greatest movies of all time, if one of the most unsettling movie (I haven't seen the original in over 10 years). The second movie has to be one of the worst sequels ever with good actors looking absolutely confused. The third one is underrated, but still not as shocking as the original. The fourth movie is somewhere in between. The actors are capable, but this movie has no really compelling reason to exist. The stories about the movie's troubled production are probably more interesting than the movie itself. The movie looks good and has its moments but by the end it has gone into self parody. There are moments that are funnier than Linda Blair's spoof Repossessed. If you lower your expectations, this might be worth two hours of your time.
