Eli Roth Presents: The Legion of Exorcists

Well 1st off the Pentacles are a sign of protection that dates back befor catholicism and Christianity ever existed. And it doesn't mean witchcraft. And the upside down pentacle represents The Horn God we is father dark the 2ed half of the year when nights are longer then days.

NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DEVIL remember it pre dates before catholicism and Christianity.

People need to stop being so stupid and believe what you see in movies and hear on the news and tv shows do the research for once.

Well Blessed Be May the Gods and Goddess Protect you all and your families

As above as below.

Completely missed the mark. Bait and switch for luring viewers on Roth's name and previous work. If I could give 0 stars it would be too much. It feels like they are attempting to retell and reenact anecdotes that are assumed to be truthful and have a somewhat horror vibe. Unfortunately Father Wrong and his cast of misfits just create a mockery of a very personal and very frightening experience for the true victims!!!!! The only thing that was semi inspiring was the amount of Aquanet in Rita's hair. Go into it if you want a good laugh or you make a drinking game every time you notice the huge cyst on that bald guys forehead.

I might be jaded, I love horror movies and I don't know if this is supposed to be fun and cheesy. It feels like it is trying to take itself seriously but REALLY missing the mark.

The first few episodes have truly unreal bad acting in the "reenactments". There's also this forced intensity with the Legion of Exorcists telling the stories. This show has been fun but it is definitely something to just have on in the background while you're doing something else; like chores. I don't know. Not something I would suggest going out of your way to watch but still fine if you like watching schlocky horror.

This has got to be a joke, right? It must be!

Exorcism is a very serious thing that takes faith, strength, patience and time. This is almost formulaic- non-ordained "exorcists" battle demons and very quickly expel them. All live happily ever after. Yeah, not convinced.

Also, real exorcists are not allowed by the church to talk about their experiences in such a cavalier manner. This topic is closely guarded by the church, as it should be. It's not exactly something that should be considered entertainment.

Sorry, Eli, but this is very disappointing. You shouldn't have taken such a heavy handed, schlocky approach.

Skip this one, folks. There are better things out there.

The characters come across as incredible posers, and the re-enactments are about as heavy-handed and schlocky as something from the Hallmark Channel, while as blunt as a brick wall.

If they're trying to be convincing, they failed--failed utterly. You'd have to be really, really, really drunk to want to watch more than about 10 minutes at a time. You'd also have to be extremely devout to believe what's being shown. These actors do a poor job of convincing me that they're human, much less that they're portraying real people.

I have to ask: Why was this made?

Who was this show made for?

Who could possibly benefit from this?

Someone paid good money for this, and I cannot imagine why.

UPDATE: I did some research into this project. It seems the idea was to have actual exorcists (or people who believe they are) tell stories about what they've dealt with. It was originally intended as a serious interview show. Then Eli Roth was brought on board, refilmed the whole discussion board with Bishop Long and the people he picked, and scrapped everyone and everything else to make it /his/ show. In the process, of course, anything remotely interesting was lost, as was anything of substance or integrity. Also, all the "exorcists" now only tell stories that are 100% in keeping with catholic doctrine and mythology. What a load of guano!
