    This slow boil approach yields poignant, aching performances from a cast that includes the late Reg E. Cathey as the morally solid chief of police, the extraordinary Philip Glenister as the town’s combative reverend, and Brent Spiner, loading his outwardly pleasant demeanor with a foul malice.

    The exorcisms still pack a powerfully violent punch, but the oppressively downcast tone turn shivers into yawns. [23 Jul - 5 Aug 2018, p.11]

Interestingly, it feature along side the worst, "The Exorcist" (audience at Rotten T. 92% ). They are not even in the same (sub)genre, former is "many worlds/dimensions" fantasy-horror not so distant from similar SciFi, and later is, well, ..."religious/demonic possession" horror.
