Hi. I'm Chris, and I'm an old white dude that likes horror movies.

I caught this on a whim on Amazon and was pleasantly surprised. There's a fair amount going on here. Moral quandary, the clergy and power, all done in a very space yet entertaining. The jump scares are reasonably well done, there's some solid CGI and the addition of martial arts that comes here and there a bit out of nowhere was, to be honest, kinda cool. Not second rate stuff, either.

I've seen some remarks about accuracy to the Islamic faith and - seriously? It's an exorcism movie. As a theologian I'd love to sit down with you and your favourite Christian exorcism movie and I'll have some notes. You will have to wait for me to stop laughing, however.

It gives a stark, grim, taut view of the path of an exorcist and the corruption of faith. If you like horror flicks and possession movies in particular I can safely recommend this really interesting example of Indonesian Horror films.
