Storyline
| Plot Summary |
In early-1950s St. Louis, the strange case of the eleven-year-old boy, Robbie Mannheim, catches the eye of the troubled former World War II veteran and now a Catholic priest, Father William Bowdern. Bearing alarming markings on his little body, while exhibiting a disturbing behaviour and an incomprehensible power after the death of his Aunt Hanna, Robbie's worried parents turn to modern medicine to help their child; however, when science fails, they resort to religion. Now, with the Vatican's reluctant consent, Bowdern must face the unholy entity that possesses Robbie and perform the first documented exorcism in America. But, the dark enemy is powerful, and he'll use Father William's inner fears against him. Can the conflicted priest cast out the demon, and save not only the boy's life but also his very soul?

| Goofs | In one of the early scenes, Father Bowden shows a college classroom images of the devil. One of the images was the popular devil head drawn by the artist 'Coop'. The problem is that this movie is set in the 1950s and Coop hadn't even been born by that time. See more » |

Reverend Eckhardt:
I can't explain it. I thought I was a man of reason, a man of science, and a man of God. I am not sure of anything anymore. The Catholics! We should take him to the Catholics. They know about these things. See more » |
