The Crucifixion (2017)

This is How Movies Should Be Made

Sorry, this movie sucks

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Let's face it. Most of these movies on exorcism are pretty much alike and The Crucifixion is no exception to the rule. The story is not really interesting and I had a bit of a hard time to even get into the movie storywise. The acting was quite good though. And by this I mean not only the main actress Sophie Cookson, but also the small side roles like the hotel manager/receptionist. It is well shot and the strongest parts are actually those where you see the actors being actually possessed. The effects then come out great and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. Aside from that the movie is unfortunately a little boring and when it really comes to the final showdown you really can feel the tension within you rise from out of nowhere. The abrupt ending is pretty disappointing then. The best way to describe it is, when your partner is teasing you and you both are on a high of lust and passion, but then your partner is done, stops without caring if you had your fair share and just turns around to sleep. And you lie there and just think: wait... that it? Really? Seems like someone here didn't care much about the audience.

The producers/directors are just hilarious. The plot is poor, the story prieview is way too long. I had to wait whole hour to see 5minutes of action. That wasn't very creative. I decided not to watch trailer but I guessed that movie will be something like a serial killer killing his victims by nailing them on the cross for their sins. That was like a bad copy of "Conjuring". I wouldn't even call this "horror movie" a movie. I give this trash 3/10 and I hardly recommend to everyone avoid this film if you can unless you want to destroy your life.

One of the problems with this film is that he does not know if he wants to make a journalistic film or if he uses the fact of the journalist to tell a scary movie. You spend too much time on the part of the interviews and the intrigue never begins. When it finally arrives, this very boring and also the director, does not know how to get involved.The scenes of exorcism do not have the slightest interest. They do not produce fear. They are too badly rolled.The actors are wrong. But in addition the characters do not make sense, as soon they want to hide everything, as soon as they tell everything to the journalist.Photography is bad. You can not make a horror movie, with so much light. Do not get into the story even if you want to.The scares are bad and predictable.The director does a very bad job if he does not realize that the movie does not start. It bores a lot. He does not know how to position the camera.Sure you see better movies

Ah, another exorcism movie to sink my teeth into. Actually, my vote is closer to 6 1/2. Overall, a pretty good movie. It kept my interest right to the end, even though a major incident in the conclusion was telegraphed long before, but still intrigued.Early on we see Sister Adelina undergoing an exorcism and the actress does a good job in the role of the devil's victim, both during the exorcism and in the several flashbacks that show her descent into the clutches of the demon. Sophie Cookson plays Nicole, a reporter who travels to Romania, and who is a sceptic about religion. Her performance is solid throughout, as were the jobs done by the rest of the cast, including several Romanian actors and two from Spain. All of this was based on a true story that happened in 2005.Of course several familiar tropes occur along the way that all of us recognize as de riguer for this kind of a movie: a lot of dead insects, strange sounds, hallucinations, solid black eyes, as well as the expected floating in air, among others. The production value is high for a B list movie like this, and all about it has the look of quality. Yes, I recommend it if you are an exorcism movie aficionado like me, or if you just like the horror genre. If you are only faintly interested in horror movies then you should probably give this one a pass. It is directed by Xavier Gens, who previously directed two pretty good horror/drama movies: "Frontiers" and "The Divide."
