There are simply too many christio-centric horror movies out there. I am burned out on these and if you are going to release one, at least make my heart pump a little. This one has nothing in terms of scares. Its more of a psychological horror story about priests and nuns acting a bit shady. Then we have girls who are possessed and having psychotic breaks and hallucinations.
As is well known with this movie series, the idea is that the possessed girls are destined to birth the anti-Christ and bad events follow them around causing death and such.
We follow along wondering who the possessed mother will be. Is it that crazy girl who the movie tries to tunnel vision you into early on? Is it the promiscuous one who wants to go out partying? Is it the innocent one who gives into temptation? WHO IS IT? LoL. Honestly its all very telegraphed and you wont be shocked regardless of who it is. That's the entire movie.
Now dont get me wrong. If I werent so burned out on these types of films I may have enjoyed this a little more. I can see this being popular back in the 70s for that reason. But today there are just too many of these films and all of them are very similar with slight variation. There are no original stories any more and when you run out of stories, you need change you focus to action. This is why I found this one boring. There just isnt enough action to keep me awake. The story I have seen many times already.
All in all, not the worst movie but I found it hard to stay awake while watching it. Its hit or miss depending on your mood.
