Deliver Us from Evil Reviews

Movie Reviews

• the story soon devolves into variations of many movies we have seen before

  by Peter Keough [Boston Globe ]

• speaking of material, the film is said to be based on the case files of a real-life cop-turned-demonologist. Instead, it seems to have been inspired by a stack of rejected horror-movie scripts found in a studio dumpster

  by Michael O'Sullivan [Washington Post ]

• some of it's shivery, but a lot of it is familiar from similar movies. Deliver me from this "Evil," please

  by Moira MacDonald [Seattle Times ]

• Scott Derrickson, who made the infinitely scarier and more accomplished Sinister, seems to have lost his feel for the genre. He drenches just about every scene in an ugly, inky darkness

  Review rate : C- by A.A. Dowd [A.V. Club ]

• an exorcism flick that's far more compelling than its genre usually requires
