Here are review links for this film submitted by our members:
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: a story that copies every foreboding beat of the original, from its religious opening in a foreign land to childhood incontinence, the film ironically begins to go off the rails as refrains of ‘Tubular Bells’ introduce Ellen Burstyn’s Chris MacNeil into the action.
- [New] | Sarah Gopaul @ Digital Journal
- Excerpt: Most notably, it fails to be even remotely scary. While there’s only two attempted jump scares, the main disappointment is the portrayal of the possessions — the title event gets very limited screen time and what is depicted is not noteworthy.
- [New] | Matt Oakes @ Silver Screen Riot
- Excerpt: Despite a strong lead in Leslie Odoms Jr. and a somewhat promising start, ‘The Exorcist: Believer’ crumbles when it leans heavily into its franchise heritage, dimming in comparison to the original’s chilling thrills. It commits the inexcusable double sin of lacking inspiration and failing to deliver scares, rendering this 50-years-later return to the realm of possession films an unworthy journey down a cragged memory lane.
