The Vatican Exorcisms
The Vatican Exorcisms was shot by Joe Marino, an American film-maker who went to Italy to shed light on the phenomenon of exorcisms. Accompanied by Padre Luigi, a true exorcist, Joe travels to the south of Italy, a place where the sacred and profane have always lived together, where Christian rituals are inextricably linked to the pagan ones.

As Good As It Gets
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Or found footage or shaky cam or whatever else you want to call it. One thing is for sure: It is low budget and it shows. That doesn't mean that some of the "exorcisms" does not look interesting in itself. But it feels like an episodic (and is kind of build that way too) TV show, where you get the exorcism of the week segment ... over and over again. Until the last one of course ... Not that the end of the movie itself will satisfy people either.If you give the filmmakers a break for the low budget, I'm not sure if you'll give them one for the weak structure this has. Also the camera shaking can make you dizzy or at least annoy and unnerve you a lot. It is called horror, but sometimes that "works" for all the wrong reasons in this movie ...
The Vatican Exorcisms is a low budget Italian/American shocker movie. I find the genre either is a whimper or a bang. Done in a Blair Witch documentary style the Vatican Exorcisms starts out okay but slowly gets worse and worse. From Okay to bad to awful. The director ascends into madness, while the viewer watches non-convincing horror scenes. The okay acting and characters become lamer and lamers as the movie whimpers out. No real movie chemistry or impact conclusion. The only real scare is watching this stinker. 2 out of 10 scares. Do not let the cover or title fool you! No scares here! Another direct to video low budget movie!
This movie was a waste of time and money. It shouldn't be under horror films at all. It had no scary or creepy parts, in my opinion. The scariest thing about the whole movie is that throughout the movie, it says "this is a real exorcism, this is a real conversation with such and such". For all we know, the exorcisms were probably just mentally ill people. The last exorcism was most likely a contortionist. All the people really did was scream and or run around. I don't even recall them speaking. It's definitely one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It's definitely in the top 5 worst. Just, don't waste your time on it.
the Vatican exorcisms is the title for release in the UK, the original title is "the truth about devil". I advise you not to look at this as a movie, look no plot, this is a good documentary with real exorcisms. if you're looking for a horror movie with lots of special effects, is another film, this is a good mix between a real and fake, to me personally makes me scared, maybe, i live in Naples city and local newspapers here have talked about strange events linked to this documentary. The priest "don Luigi" is real, he works in a church in Naples and is a famous exorcist. I think that the director we've played on this in post production, release for marketing, but perhaps it was better to sell and install this for what it is; a documentary !!
