Watch: Prey for the Devil 2022 123movies, Full Movie Online – According to real-life Vatican reports, occurrences of demonic possession have increased significantly in recent years. In response, the Catholic church has secretly reopened exorcism schools to train priests in the sacred rite. The Devil’s Light immerses you into the world of one of these schools; humanity’s last line of defense against the powers of everlasting evil. Jacqueline Byers (“Roadies,” “Salvation”) stars as Sister Ann, who devoutly believes that performing exorcisms is her calling, despite the fact that historically only priests – not sisters – are allowed to perform them. When one professor senses her special gift, allowing her to be the first nun to study and master the ritual, her own soul will be in danger as the demonic forces she battles reveal a mysterious connection to her traumatic past..
Plot: In response to a global rise in demonic possessions, the Catholic Church reopens exorcism schools to train priests in the Rite of Exorcism. On this spiritual battlefield, an unlikely warrior rises: a young nun, Sister Ann. Thrust onto the spiritual frontline with fellow student Father Dante, Sister Ann finds herself in a battle for the soul of a young girl and soon realizes the Devil has her right where he wants her.

Jacqueline Byers is “Sister Ann” – a troubled young nun whose relationship with her late, clinically diagnosed schizophrenic, mother has left her determined to take holy orders and to help other people with mental health disorders. She has a nursing position at a church hospital where the Catholic church – under the leadership “Fr. Quinn” (Colin Salmon) and psychiatrist “Dr. Peters” (Virginia Madsen) use scientific and ecclesiastic methods to treat their patients. The former leads their exorcism training regime and it to that that the nun is drawn. Her skills are initially tested when she has to try and deal with the apparent possession of the young “Natalie” (Posy Taylor) but that operation merely serves to open up an entire wardrobe of demons – including some very close to home for “Ann”. Actually, the story here is not half bad – but the acting and the whole presentation of the film is seriously lacklustre. Sure, there are a few quite effective jump moments but as the story gathers pace it loses any semblance of plausibility. The writing clumsily muddles scripture and vernacular and the ending is really old hat. It has the ring of an over-stretched short story to it. It might almost have made for a decent “Tales of the Unexpected” forty-five minute television drama rather than dragging it out with loads of establishing shots of the rather nice building she works in and rain, lots and lots of rain! Saw it tonight in 100-seat cinema all by myself – I can’t say I am surprised – this is really all rather poor.

The yearly throwaway teeny exorcism Halloween film somehow even more cliche than before.
Well here we are again. Halloween and just in time another possession film with every possible jump scare and cliche you’ve ever seen before. The formula is so worn out it’s almost parodying itself unintentionally. Either way a new generation of horror fans will inevitably flock to it being the only other option than Halloween 37 this year. With plotting as hollow as ever and formulaic and cgi/jump scares that come Around nearly every corner, this film does nothing to separate itself. Attempts at ambitious twists fall short and end up being cheap. Actors are mtv caliber. Camerawork is rinse repeat. Just another possession film.
It’s just ok. Pretty standard for the scary movie opening up the weekend before Halloween.
It’s a predicable movie. The fact that the movie is about a nun entering the world of exorcisms which is a male Priest thing (I did not know that, but of course not surprised) is a unique pitch I’m sure got it greenlit by Hollywood, but as the story is laid out, nothing new is happening. It got to the point where I could guess pretty accurately what’s going to happen next.That’s not the real problem. The problem is the movie is not scary or disturbing or horrifying. In fact, the only horrifying part is that the movie was not scary or disturbing.
My favorite part of the film is the Vatican itself. I do enjoy movies that show us the suppose combination of using the most Hi-Tech facilities to hold the history of the church.
It’s a good watch but I’m sure I’ll forget it tomorrow.
