Utter shit. Enjoyed the first one and was looking forward to seeing Bill Mosely tear it up but fucking hell this was inept.
bwahahaha - Rue Morgue just crowned it WORST CINEMATIC ATROCITY TO WOUND YOUR RETINAS of 2010.

The Last Exorcism (2010)




This actually was pretty good... Well, about 2/3 was quite enjoyable... Solid acting, really good atmosphere... The actual plotline was a great, refreshing take of your usual demon-possession tale, so I really really liked that...

HOWEVER:

This is supposed to be a documentary-style film, yet the soundtrack does pick up during tense scenes, which ultimately distracts the anal retentive amongst us (where is that violin coming from - IT'S RIGHT BEHIND YOU!!

Also, the end is overly elaborate and ultimately unnecessary, leaving you with a bit of a let down.

In short, there are some good scares (though if you don't like the documentary-style, then definitely avoid it), but the end was a huge letdown for me (which I actually think a few people on this board have already sited.

I have a hard time giving it less then a 3/5, though, so here it is:

3/5.
