Worst ad for the Catholic Church ever

Rating: 1/10 (29 August 2013)

At no point was this movie scary. Every moment was entirely predictable. If a scary movie is not scary then what is it besides a failure? Sure it was written well enough I suppose would be the only positive to this movie. You will have to turn your brain off though, which is what they were aiming for to instill the fear of God in you, when stupid moments happen such as demons teleporting through metal. I am very certain after seeing this film that every exorcism movie is just an attempt to scare people into becoming religious. The oh so subtle nuances such as "We're not what you would call a religious family." "You might want to change that." and at the end of the movie, I am not sure if anyone caught this but there was a giant quote telling people to worship God and fear the Devil. Not to mention the convenience that you cannot move out of a haunted house, you need a priest to bless it. I guess the Catholic Church never grew out of the Renaissance days of forcing its need. If you think this review focused too much on the religious part then avoid this movie because they will shove it down your throat.
