About this movie

In 2014, a demon possession story out of Gary, Indiana caused a worldwide media sensation. It included claims that a boy had walked backwards up a hospital emergency room wall, and that a priest had performed multiple exorcisms. Famous paranormal investigator Zak Bagans was producing an episode of his popular television series when the story broke; he then bought the location of the haunting a day later over the phone, sight unseen. “This was it!” thought Zak, who has investigated over 1,000 hauntings. “The mega-story I’ve always wanted to investigate.' It was the next Amityville. But Zak and his crew were unprepared for what awaited them at a house that was possessed by “200 demons.” Zak suffered from a debilitating illness, crew members quit and were fired, people nearly died... Zak even started to wonder if just viewing the film could open audiences up to possession themselves - had he made a movie too dangerous to release?

(ClICK BAIT) Spoiler.....Couldn't wait to watch this movie. Once I paid the fee of around $10. I went financially broke and had to take out a small loan of a million dollars. (Spoiler alert) .......Being a big fan of his work I was very hopeful of a complete hour long investigation not just the 15 min. Felt like I just watched a more raw version of paranormal activity. Home alone 2 was more terrifying. I still enjoyed the documentary side of things it was was great. I'll give it 3 stars. Feel like he could have produced somthing better.

As a documentary, this film was compelling. It had a great premise, credible witnesses, and a singular staging area that he made feel had a life of its own. It starts to stretch out the building intensity to the point that it becomes melodramatic. A GA style documentary is too much for this, but he did need to do a bit more paranormal investigation to fill in the intensity instead of the cheesy drama.

going in, i thought the story itself was fake like im pretty 98% of you will if you know the case details. this documentary had impeccable research not just saying "this is paranormal there is no chance this is fake" but instead incite fully looking into the case itself. if you are coming to this documentary with little to no knowledge of the case you wont pick up everything. in other words, i came into this movie with questions especially on the reality of what happens and can a paranormal group capture what science seeks to debunk. you will be shocked if you are in tune. if you dont believe then you will watching/researching this case.
