Review of Dominion: Prequel to The Exorcist (2005) by Elle M — 17 Jan 2012
This one is one of the best in the series,it was initially rejected for being too subtle by the studio and they went ahead and made the awful EXORCIST:THE BEGINNING instead.This one,however is vastly superior,it's much more subtle and intelligent than BEGINNING.
Pual Schrader's direction is excellent and he keeps a firm hand on proceedings never forgetting to maintain tension while injecting depth and intelligence into the story too.This is as much a drama as it is a horror film and while it itsn't as in your face as the original it still succeeds wonderfully as a different type of horror film.
A highly underrated gem.
