The Demon Files

I have to say, when I first saw this show, with my mother in fact, after the first 15 minutes we thought it was laughable. We did continue to watch because we were sure that there had to be more to it. Nope, there wasn't. Just some former cop, loud mouth stereotypical New Yorker that makes all Northeasterns hang our heads in embarrassment hoping that no on else watched it and believes we are all the same.

Ralph Sarchie is a freak-a-zoid from everyone's worst zombie nightmare from some messed up parallel universe. He is very loud, boastful and I guess someone told him he was some kind of expert in mythology, theology and would make a good "ghost hunter." I did see Deliver us From Evil and though I found it interesting, there is so much of "THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT" that someone can take before it starts to sound really fake and phony and you wonder just where the hell they get these people from.

It was not scary, it was STUPID and showed just how little RS knows about, well, everything. Do some research Sarchie, it will do you some good.

I think 4 out of 10 is pretty generous. I'm not understanding all these 10 star reviews. I mean, it's an interesting show and all, but it's foolish. I felt as if Ralph is just walking around screaming at air at some points, nothing is enticing me to continue watching it, and I don't feel as if it's real. Sure, it's entertaining to watch a full grown man yell at the air, and I guess some of the information about demons and such is cool... but if they wanted a show about demons, they could have made a retelling show where they told us about their cases. I am not going to dismiss that this show's cast is ineffective or unknowledgeable of what they know.

I read through the other reviews, and just felt they were either A) Children, B) Gullible, or C) Ghost Adventure Haters. I think the idea and concept is good, chasing down demons and helping families, but it's still just seems fake. I feel as if all these new ghost shows are trying to find a replacement for Ghost Adventures, and I think they're going to have a hard time doing that. Like the title says, I'm not going to go out of my way to watch a new episode, but I will watch it when I'm bored. Like I said before, I think the concept is good, so maybe I'll watch it on demand when I'm bored at two AM on a Friday night, but otherwise, I'll stick with other shows.

I'll admit that I've never seen a ghost show that was good, and credit where credit is due, this show isn't like other ghost shows in it's approach or atmosphere.

But you have to be kidding me that all these people give it 10 stars. Maybe they're part of the show or trying to get out of some tickets in trade. Which brings us to the title of the review;

How on earth did this guy not only get to be an armed cop, but a sergeant at that. They must have been desperate where he worked.

Anyways, it's half jerry springer, half Christian .. something - I don't wanna say propaganda because it's soo lame, I don't know who it's supposed to fool. But apparently this no nonsense show seems to hinge on religious nonsense and silly zero dollar effects.

Conveniently one internet printed standard exorcism fits all, and we even get the benefit of finding out a religion is actually right and that the power of Christ compels demons.

Phew, no more need to think with thingy between ears...

Not since the TV show Paranormal State have I seen a better reality show having to do with Spiritual Warfare. See that's what the paranormal really is a battle of light and dark- not ghosts that's just a symptom of a deeper issue. Anyways though Ghost Hunters was the first show i saw, it was Paranormal State that got me hooked, the combination of desperate family demonic haunting's and large haunted venues peppered with the Catholic background of the shows leadership gave a powerful rendering of true malevolent entities and the insidious sickness they carry and how God is the best cure. THE DEMON FILES are cut from that mold but better because PRS and its creator Ryan Buehl let Hollywood and creative liberties change there mission statement. I can say without a doubt this show would not go that route. Ralph Sarchie is a man of God before he is anything else (in my opinion) and does this show to get the word out that this is real and that there is a solution and although it shares the common characteristics of a lot of paranormal shows it is totally unique in its doctrine and delivery. Awesome show- especially if you are a believer!!! Watch it and see.

I have never commented or wrote anything on IMDb before but I've been waiting for a program like this for a very very long time a paranormal program thats about demonic hauntings only. I've not watched this yet but as i said its the type of show I've been waiting for, and I'm a bit gutted that there only seems to be 3 episodes. All other paranormal shows feature demons but there isn't a show dedicated solely to the phenomena. From what I've been reading and learning recently demonic hauntings are on the rise and i think people should be aware whether they believe or not. Or at least look at the user reviews for this program and see that it seems popular with people that watch other paranormal programs on Destination America and keep it running.., I'm going to watch the 3 episodes now and keep my fingers crossed that Destination America rethinks its decision or broadcast another show on the topic. Paranormal Survivor and Witness, A Haunting The Haunted are great shows that I'd like to see more of.

OK will watch and write my first EVER review.
