Review of Deliver Us from Evil (1973) by Jess L — 06 Feb 2013
A well structured documentary about a Catholic Priest who actively engaged in Pedophilia with children of his parishes. The documentary involves interview with Father Oliver O'Grady along with other church officials and some families of the children he abused.
This is a fascinating and interesting documentary that is put together seamlessly. Of course the subject matter is devastating and at times uncomfortable to hear about, but is none the less an inescapable part of our society.
The reason this documentary works so well is how it extracts such vivid emotions out of the audience from viewing it. You are shocked, appalled, angry, saddened and a host of other emotions as you sit and watch this story unfold. The interviews with O'Grady further add to this as he seems unaware of the magnitude of his actions upon his victims.
Truly riveting viewing that shocks and upsets but I would highly recommend.
