Prior to filming, Cristina had purportedly been experiencing behavioural changes and “fits” that could not be explained by psychiatry, and which became worse during Christian holidays.

Steineded How sad is this?
Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
kitcatnc I used to believe in things like this but after watching this "joke-umentary" I can't say that I do. I put up more of a fight at the age of 5 when the nurses tried to give me a shot to knock me out for surgery and I am sure the language and grunts coming out of my mouth were a lot scarier than this womans. If she was possessed then why didn't she head but Father Amorth and bite those holding her down. She was compared to a caged animal? Try this tactic with a monkey. William you should be ashamed for putting this thing together. I love how you were only allowed to use your camera yet there was one in the room showing you filming it. Wasn't it convenient that you didn't have it at the end? You must have learned that trick from the Bigfooters. I also love all the extra people in the room after stating that the devil (demon) sometimes transfers to the next person, If it was a true demon no exorcist would allow that many people in the same room during the exorcism in the fear of containment. This is the worst documentary that I have ever seen.
kimmeah Spoilers aheadWhen Christina's parents were blessed by Father Amorth, she became violent with possession again. Why didn't Father Amorth focus on her again? Why did he just continue to bless her parents? If the case of possession is so unique, devastating and devastating to her, why just leave her with it while blessing other people? The narrator even mentions that she is more violent than before, but no one does anything about it? How did Father Amorth, a very holy Father, just die from pneumonia?Why was the extremely dramatic meeting in Alatri not even filmed or recorded? When you call Christina and she sounds angry on the phone, you can assume that you might have a chance to film something that is exactly what the documentary is all about. Wait, what was the documentary about again? This confirmed for me that the whole documentary is fake.
emsky333 This will not be popular amongst the religious but... I'm very sceptical when it comes to Satan and demons. Why? Why would Satan possess random Italian lady? A demon maybe, but Satan? No. I'm sure he has better things to do. I hear the argument from religious people that it is to destroy a person's faith, or to steal their souls, but if you look at it logically, how many are lost to possession? Wouldn't it only increase a person's faith in God and religion, exorcisms always seem to be successful, excluding the odd one or two horror stories. The only thing it benefits is religion, and a person's faith in their God. I honestly believe that if Satan existed, he would have a far bigger agenda, like control over a population, making people commit atrocities in his name, he would cause division, hate, encourage discrimination, he would control people through fear of sinning, and threats of eternal torture... Oh wait, that sounds like... RELIGION!
kankrillo-50277 What a fraud. This is the worst thing I've ever seen. It's badly done. All based in a poor voice effect. Only Ignorant people would say this is real.
