    • Trivia
      A similar, almost identical, story on a woman protecting her child from Satanists was also used in the horror movie Bless the Child (2000) starring Kim Basinger and Rufus Sewell, only that time, a little girl was the central figure, not a little boy, like in this movie.
    • Quotes

      [after Kristie explains everything to Father Mullin from the beginning]

      Kristie St. Clair: Father?

      Father Mullin: Yes?

      Kristie St. Clair: Why can't you believe me?

      Father Mullin: You're asking for too much.

      Kristie St. Clair: Then hell is where I belong.

      [Father Mullin leaves upon hearing this]

    Way Under-Rated!

    I give a 7, and thats being conservative! You have to pay attention mid-movie to stay with plot. Solid acting as far as I could judge! Few plotholes, making the movie smooth in laying everything out. Great ending. I give this an over-all B+! Thanks!😀
