Prey for the Devil (2022, D: Stamm) S: Byers, Salmon, Navarro, Ralph, Cross, Madsen




Prey for the Devil - In Theaters October 28. Jacqueline Byers, Colin Salmon, Christian Navarro, Nicholas Ralph, Ben Cross, Academy Award Nominee Virginia Madsen


In response to a global rise in demonic possessions, the Catholic Church reopens exorcism schools to train priests in the Rite of Exorcism. On this spiritual battlefield, an unlikely warrior rises: a young nun, Sister Ann (Jacqueline Byers). Although nuns are forbidden to perform exorcisms, a professor (Colin Salmon) recognizes Sister Ann’s gifts and agrees to train her. Thrust onto the spiritual frontline with fellow student Father Dante (Christian Navarro), Sister Ann finds herself in a battle for the soul of a young girl (who Sister Ann believes is possessed by the same demon that tormented her own mother years ago), and soon realizes the Devil has her right where he wants her….and it wants in.

Lionsgate and Gold Circle Entertainment present, a Lionsgate production, a Confluence production.

Wow guess nobody watched this. I did rent the DVD from Red Box last week with a free rental. This was basically a C-list cast with really no big names. Madsen had a small supporting role as a psychiatrist. While there was some good demon effects and sequences. The story of is not something we haven't before in other exorcism themed movies. I did think Jacqueline Byers was good for what she was given in the script. There was a 45+ minute making of documentary on the DVD, but I had no time to watch it.

It's not horrible. It's really short at about 90 minutes and an adequate time killer if you happen to be tuning into a channel that is airing it on TV or have a service that has it. I wouldn't go out of my way to see this even of you're the biggest exorcism horror fan.

I saw it on its theatrical release. These are the kind of films that the Regal Unlimited Plus Passes are for

Considering there was a time period where Exorcism films were being released every other week, Director Daniel Stamm's film feels old & tired.

There's nothing here that hasn't been seen before but the idea of a centralized Catholic Exorcism School was neat.
