David Edelstein gave it a pretty scathing review on NPR, basically saying that it's trite anti-secularist propaganda.

bummer

What, you thought it might be good? I mean, I know Campbell Scott is in it, and stuff, but the trailers are like eight successive examples of the same thing happening: okay, she's walking around ... hey look, there's a person over there ... OMIGOD THE FACE JUST TURNED INTO THE DEVIL ... and now she's screaming in horror.

Oh wait, now she's in class ... what'll happen here? Hey look, there's a kid doing some homework ... he's looking at her ... OMIGOD HIS FACE JUST TURNED INTO THE DEVIL ... and now she's screaming in horror.

Okay, she's in a church now ... that's good news, I bet that'll help. Hey look, there's a couple old ladies praying in the front pew ... they're looking up at her ... OMIGOD THEIR FACES JUST TURNED INTO THE DEVIL ... and now she's screaming in horror.

Walking down the street, just chilling ... need some relaxation after all that devil-face shit ... hey look, there's a guy in a passing cab ... OMIGOD HIS FACE JUST TURNED INTO THE DEVIL ... maybe this young couple under the umbrella can help ... OMIGOD THEIR FACES JUST TURNED INTO THE DEVIL ... run, run the other way ... hey look, it's Sarah Michelle Gellar and a little Japanese boy ... OMIGOD HIS FACE JUST TURNED INTO THE DEVIL AND HE MADE SOME KIND OF WEIRD CAT SOUND

Ok, she's watching a Richard Simmons workout video. This is good, he's the most harmless man on the planet ...

OMG!

thanks for killing my fantasy life!

two years pass...

Okay, I saw this movie when it first came out on DVD thinking it'd be 90+ minutes of what nabisco described, which would be AWESOME! And it was exactly what the trailers promised. Well, it's three minutes of "jump out of your chair" "boo" type scares and the rest is a fucking TRIAL! It's a trial movie! And ultimately what they conclude is that God is real, in court, and so the priest accused of murdering her was in the right! It's the anti-Inherit the Wind.

And it was exactly what the trailers promised.

'it' here was 'nabisco's fucking hilarious descriptions of what the movie is probably like based on the trailer'

― Abbott, Thursday, 31 January 2008 23:40 (eighteen years ago)

six years pass...

god this movie was so fucking bad. saw this recently cuz a friend of a friend was raving about Jennifer Carpenter's performance. I went home with an earache and a desire to murder Catholics
