Eli Roth Presents: The Legion of Exorcists

How can Eli Roth be allowed to get away with this rubbish?

First he tries to tell us they are true stories. Where's the physical evidence?

Then that this, so called, Legion of Exorcists are Bishops, Reverends etc. They are actors, look at the credits.

Sadly there are a lot of people who believe this rubbish and making fictional programmes and try to pass it off as real, is dangerous.

The acting is atrocious. The stories weak.

The only positive is I had a really good laugh watching it, even though I'm sure I'm not supposed to.

I don't think Eli Roth does his reputation any good with these repeated poor quality fictional programmes.

Super irritating actors narrating super lame stories and I *should* know better because, Eli Roth...not sure if I'm more annoyed with him, Netflix or myself for having wasted precious minutes on this pap. What never fails to baffle me is the lack of coherence the "exorcists" display. Anyone with even a modicum of exposure to the topic knows the supernatural rules of engagement and why try casting out demons when the individuals affected aren't adherents to any kind of relationship deterrent, ie. Becoming Christians = incompatibility with the demonic. What sort of "pastors" are these people? Did they get ordained online? I am decided, I am most annoyed with myself for being lured in by boredom. Eli Roth score 1, me - goose egg.

Same old horror tropes, possessed dolls etc,, not much originality, not reinventing the horror genre.

It comes with a "Twillight Zone",William Shatner/ Jonathan Frakes intro, with Eli Roth.

Filmed in the this is a "True Story" style, re-enacted by AMATEUR "actors".

Which makes it unintentionally funny.

I enjoyed first 2 episodes, but doubt I will watch more.

My review is too short.

Sorry.

How many more characters do I need?

Id rather watch "Ancient Aliens" or "American Horror Story" than THIS.

For me, this is definetly below average entertainment.

Would need to be pretty desperate to watch it.

Anyone else notice Kathleen Turner looks like William Shatner in Drag??

No judgement, just an opinon, be blessed.

The characters come across as incredible posers, and the re-enactments are about as heavy-handed and schlocky as something from the Hallmark Channel, while as blunt as a brick wall.

If they're trying to be convincing, they failed--failed utterly. You'd have to be really, really, really drunk to want to watch more than about 10 minutes at a time. You'd also have to be extremely devout to believe what's being shown. These actors do a poor job of convincing me that they're human, much less that they're portraying real people.

I have to ask: Why was this made?

Who was this show made for?

Who could possibly benefit from this?

Someone paid good money for this, and I cannot imagine why.

UPDATE: I did some research into this project. It seems the idea was to have actual exorcists (or people who believe they are) tell stories about what they've dealt with. It was originally intended as a serious interview show. Then Eli Roth was brought on board, refilmed the whole discussion board with Bishop Long and the people he picked, and scrapped everyone and everything else to make it /his/ show. In the process, of course, anything remotely interesting was lost, as was anything of substance or integrity. Also, all the "exorcists" now only tell stories that are 100% in keeping with catholic doctrine and mythology. What a load of guano!

Well 1st off the Pentacles are a sign of protection that dates back befor catholicism and Christianity ever existed. And it doesn't mean witchcraft. And the upside down pentacle represents The Horn God we is father dark the 2ed half of the year when nights are longer then days.

NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DEVIL remember it pre dates before catholicism and Christianity.

People need to stop being so stupid and believe what you see in movies and hear on the news and tv shows do the research for once.

Well Blessed Be May the Gods and Goddess Protect you all and your families
