Synopsis

In Holland during World War II, Father Lankester Merrin (Stellan Skarsgård - Deep Blue Sea) is forced by a Nazi officer (Antonie Kamerling - Mindhunters) to choose 10 of his flock to be executed, and the resulting psychological trauma shakes his faith in God. After the war, Merrin, on a temporary sabbatical from the priesthood, becomes an archaeologist in British East Africa, where an anachronistic 5th-century Byzantine church is discovered. As the archaeological crew digs deeper, it becomes clear that the church was not intended as a house of worship, but as a crypt to contain an unspeakable evil. But when a demonic spirit is unleashed, the tortured priest must overcome doubt and find renewed faith to perform his first exorcism in the horror thriller Dominion: Prequel To The Exorcist.

    better than you'd expect but…

    06 December 2008
    More of a thriller than a horror film, Dominion was shelved in favour of the release of the same film by a different director but was released after the film company changed its mind. Dominion features the character of Father Merrin from the original Exorcist film, who is working in East Africa. Merrin is suffering from a crisis of faith when he witnesses the miraculous healing of a young man possessed by a devil. Dominion is not actually as bad as you might expect, considering that prequels never usually turn out well. It doesn't match the Exorcist but then it's a different kind of film with a lot less horror and more drama. Overall Dominion works well, and is fairly engaging and enjoyable but to be honest it's decent, not great. It's certainly better than the other exorcist prequel but to be honest that's not really saying much.
