Forsaken
When a Priest discovers his wife is deathly ill, he decides to go against his faith and use his knowledge of exorcisms to possess her in order to save her life.
Why it matters
A grim attempt at demonic possession horror that stumbles but offers glimpses of practical effects for die-hard genre explorers.
- Ambitious premise: a priest defies doctrine to possess his dying wife, blending faith and body horror concepts.
- Mostly marred by uneven acting and a script that flirts with incoherence, testing viewer patience.
- Practical makeup effects provide brief moments of tangible dread amid the chaos.
- For fans of micro-budget possession flicks willing to sift through rough edges for obscure oddities.
