Interesting film. It starts out as a typical possession horror with dark humorous approach and then about halfway through it completely ignores all the buildup and turning into a psychological drama focusing on one of the nuns after leaving the convent with little hints of horror. While I enjoyed the supernatural part more, the abrupt shifts surprisingly don't really bother me. It comes off as though it doesn’t know what it wants to be while also knowing exactly what it is at the same time. I think not knowing where the film's going to take you is what makes it incredibly unique. I wish it had maintained the dark comedy, but I also can't say I'm disappointed because it ends up being really touching. Now I'm really curious to see Climate of the Hunter
I kind of wished they would have just stuck with the possession storyline.
[Sitges FF] A film that savors the classic genre of exorcisms but turns to a different path, more interested in reflecting on the loss of faith. Using a minimalist style to reconstruct the tools of the exorcism genre, with a touch of humor. Mickey Reece qualifies his films as comedies, and there is cynicism in some of the dialogues, in a film that challenges the viewer by breaking the usual structure of the genre.

There are a handful of possible films here, all little more than sketches. Exorcism film with the non-believer priest, lost woman unable to deal with life in the city, dark comedy about a reality tv exorcist, a dark comedy about nuns just living the nun life. Well shot, well acted, but incomplete.
C+, see me after class.
