To me, this movie is perfection.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Eloy is a cult leader who travels by foot with his granddaughter Alba. They perform a 1 minute exorcism. They just know where to go. The time is right before 12/21/2012 the "end" time for the Mayan prophecy which is blended with Biblical prophecy. Meanwhile there is a woman in a mental institution with her sister, a policewoman who is investigating the strange occurrences. The weather is unseasonable warm as the world is about to "reverse" whatever that is.The film is pretty much as expected. Once we see the flashback film of the cult, we get a good idea what is going on. The twist at the end was not totally unexpected and it was a bit boring.Wasn't worth sitting through with subtitles.Guide: F-bombs. No sex or nudity. Some blood.

I liked this movie, a lot. I thought it was beautifully shot, that scene at the end was great. I appreciated the lack of nudity and cheap entertainment, so many films now rely on sex, exaggerated gore and flinch scares. This movie does not. I liked the original plot, a sort of exorcism in reverse. The soundtrack was amazing, real talent there. I liked this director too. I guess this is his first film? Couldn't tell. Thdv I'm looking forward to more, this guy has talent and vision. The reason why I have it a 6 and not higher? Pacing... For a large part of the movie you have no idea what is going on,, and I think it took away from the movie. I think in this case it would have added to the suspense. The other reason is the video tapes from before that are labeled just that. Tapes from before 1997. Those were the worst part of the movie and we could have done without them.. If the script has opened up some, it would have been a 10. Not scary but entertaining.

Five days in the lives of exorcist Eloy de Palma (Lluis Marco) and his granddaughter Alba (Claudia Pons), working in the Barcelona area.We get a strong opening, with great use of camera technique and color, along with a gripping score from Jordi Dalmau. The New York Times refers to Dalmau's work as "an eerie, echoing sound design of plinking pianos and ghostly choirs." It is that and much more. Of course, this level of greatness is not maintained for the full duration, but it really showcases the potential of those involved.Adam Clarke has reviewed the film mostly positively, saying it is "full of interesting ideas" and singling out the cinematography of Xavi Garriga (in his feature film debut). What Clarke appreciates most is the "switching genres" between "exorcism, police procedural and apocalypse drama." He is absolutely right for singling out Garriga, who hopefully continues to make more films. If nothing else comes of this, Garriga should have a bright career.Some people may be turned off my the subtitles, but that is their loss. While this may not be the greatest film in the exorcism category of horror films, it is different enough that it should be praised for its originality. A new twist on an old theme, with some imagery that evokes comparisons to David Cronenberg's early work? Keep your eyes on this one.

Do you think it hurts them...when it leaves their souls? You can't even imagine Alba. His eyes...his voice...he whispers in my ear....they shan't destroy his work. I like cemeteries, I find them attractive..The most terrible secrets of humanity are not hidden away in books or libraries...but cemeteries. The whole movie follows Eloy and Alba as they exorcise people. It seems as though they are the good people. Except near the end you start to realize they might not be so good after all. They're definitely doing something.....maybe instead exorcising all the demons from the people, Alba is actually absorbing all the evil energy into herself. When they reach the lower temple doorway...it all starts to come together and make sense. Alba is actually the child of her dad's daughter...except her dad is also her grandfather, inbreeding.
