Makes more sense if you've seen Overlord
I wasn't too sure about the Pope's Exorcist and where it was headed for the first half hour. It all felt very "been here, done that." But then it became apparent that this movie wasn't taking itself too seriously, and I just settled in for the ride.
For the most part we HAVE been here and done that, but it doesn't make the move any less enjoyable. It doesn't make the movie particularly scary either, and there are a few cringy information dumps in the dialogue toward the start, but overall it was good fun. I dont necessarily think a horror movie has to be that scary if the entertainment value, acting, and atmosphere is enough to sweep you up in the story. Think Pearl, the prequel to X; not particularly scary, but still entertaining.
And if you haven't seen Overlord, give it a go.
