SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Blistering performances.

Oh no I thought....not another found footage film. 10 seconds in and I'm hooked.Hollywood has tried on so many occasions to reboot horror classics, not always successfully. When big budget spectacle distracts from the actual story the realism can fade out. This is certainly not the case in An Irish Exorcism. Fantastic performances from Irish actors in a well executed production. A seemingly ordinary documentary suddenly descends into a tense and disturbing nightmare for all involved.A low budget production with no extravaganza of special effects still manages to thrill via some immersive camera work, clever editing and sounds that haunted me. This film is a dark occult journey, and will leave you exhausted at the end.If films like Blair Witch and the Omen appeal to you give this little gem a try. You wont be disappointed.

Oh dear--another bad "exorcism" movie. Caught this one on On- Demand. I was not paying attention or I would have never bothered. This is yet ANOTHER "found footage" POS that bores you to death to start with and has you rolling with laughter at the end. Scares? Puh-leeze. If you thought this was scary, you probably also thought "Paranormal Activity" was a fright-fest.A blow-by-blow snooze-fest which has a whole lot of talking and very little action. Even the "priests" in this movie didn't want to be on camera and can you blame them? There is no question as to where this movie is going, what's going to happen before it gets there, and how it will end. I'm not going to bother you with details, but let me say this. There will only be ONE exorcism movie, and that's the original "Exorcist." You have to do more to scare me than have a girl shuffle around a floor with her hair covering her face (probably a good move on her part), have someone fake-growl, and the "crew" running around like chickens with their heads cut off. Good grief; I've been more scared at a local "haunted house." Not rated, not worth wasting your time, and not recommended.

What a shame!!This started off so well, it just looked like it was gonna be quite good. The lead actress is great and the filming style good. Then halfway through it all goes wrong. The weirdest thing is when the previously confident 'reporter' suddenly starts heavily breathing at everything, I almost turned off right there, it's really annoying & there's nothing scary happening to make her do that. Then you realise that they've got nothing, nothing is going to happen, there's no money for a couple of cool special effect shots, no real creep factor, the plot falls apart, the actors become annoying and you hardly ever see the poor bedeviled one, even up until the end - what a terrible waste of time for all.Was gonna star 3 but as I nearly turned off 3 quarters through but trudged on to oblivion, it's a terrible 2 ;(

I saw an Irish Exorcism at this year's New Mexico Fright Fest. I wasn't expecting anything very special. However, the resulting movie was a great surprise. The movie is presented as a documentary film made by an Anthropology student investigating exorcism. Although a 'found footage' movie, the movie feels more like a thriller, it's mood is very claustrophobic and the acting is all round good, however some actors are outstanding particularly the female lead Aislinn Ní Uallacháin, but Brian Fortune and Paddy C. Courtney also put in great performances.The mood of the film is underpinned by the Irish countryside who is almost a character itself in the movie.The story is very believable and suggests that the research is good. The writing is smart, engaging and knows it's onions. The viewer is treated to a movie that understands genre and understands economic use of story telling. It could be argued that Catholics make the best horror movies. There are frights but there is also a good intelligent story, this is more The Exorcist than The Heretic. Check this film out, it's cool
