The Exorcists

Save your money!

Wait till it's free and you have chores or a project to do in the background! Terrible acting! Ridiculous back story comes out quick and with no reasoning. Just when you think it's over and you can be done it's only 30 minutes in and then you keep getting a false hope every 5 minutes! You have no interest in the characters, no lead up and connections that make you even care! And then when you just wish you had your time and money back- seriously- it's a "what's happening" moment in multiple time frames, and then it's like they ran out of time and pulled the fire alarm!! Everyone out- it's over.

Could have been a good story with better writing, producing, and acting. The good parts were just enough to keep me watching but won't be watching it again. It's almost like every few minutes someone would yell "swap" and another writer would take over.

Or similar stories were spliced together to create this failed attempt at a good possession movie.

Maybe a high school assignment that somehow made its way to the movie world??

Almost like a theater class assignment where 3 different groups would step in with the gist and have 10 minutes to improv then have to hand it off to the next group.

Watch at your own risk but not the way most horror fans except.

The movie gave me a false hopes in the beginning I thought that i will see decent movie but the story was bad doesn't make sense so many plot holes a lot pf problems that I would have to write an essay about how bad is it no excuse to bad art if there's a zero I would give it to the movie let me tell you something I have no problem giving the new or amateur screenwriters a chance I understand what they go through but i have seen movies with less production hell I have seen youtube movies better than this one I don't recommend this nothing in the movie can save it everything was bad I hope all the best for the crew in the future but this one was awful I hope they learn from it.

I have a start for Doug Bradley (who gave a lackluster script his best delivery) and a star for decent visuals on the slim budget, but I'm sorry, this movie doesn't ultimately deliver. It's a great premise, and had so much potential, but the writing is just godawful.

Beyond the atrocious writing, only Doug Bradley, Denise Duff, and Katie Silverman do a decent job. Kayla Fields is about as believable as a politician during campaign season, and the rest of the cast is just "okay." While much can be chalked up to the poor writing, there's some horrid acting here too.

I get Doug wanting a paycheck, so I can't fault him for taking this gig, but this is a serious "pass" for me. Unrealistic dialogue and story arcs, and writing that rivals the plot of a 1980's porn film. Stay away.

Oh, and I hope and pray that Doug Bradley is able to land at least one more decent film before he retires. He's too good to have to settle for garbage like this.

Right, well initially I must admit that I thought that there might actually be something to this 2023 movie "The Exorcists" as it had Brad Dougley on the cast list. But then as the movie started, those two dreaded words appeared on the screen; The Asylum...

But still, I opted to watch the movie, as it was a horror movie that I hadn't already seen. And I guess that this was a mockbuster off of the 2023 movie "The Exorcist: Believer", as it is a movie from The Asylum. I haven't yet watched "The Exorcist: Believer" yet, though.

The storyline in "The Exorcists" was rather bland and generic. It was a textbook exorcism movie, but without being overly interesting, scary or particularly worth the 85 minutes that the movie ran for. I must say that I was not particularly entertained throughout the course of the sluggish narrative.

The acting performances in "The Exorcists" was adequate. Though you're not in for anything extraordinary, mind you. Of the entire cast, then I was only familiar with Doug Bradley.

Visually then "The Exorcists" wasn't bringing anything grand to the screen either. It was not a movie that made a use of a whole lot of special effects. I guess the budget simply wasn't available for that.

If you enjoy exorcism movies, then you might find something enjoyable here, if you look hard enough. However, as a casual viewer and a horror fan, I will say that writer and director Jose Prendes delivered a monotonous and forgettable movie.

My rating of "The Exorcists" lands on a three out of ten stars.
