Cast: Alfonso
Herrera, Ben Daniels, Geena Davis, Brianne Howey, Hannah Kasulka, Kurt
Egyiawan, Alan Ruck.
Synopsis: The Exorcist is a propulsive psychological
thriller following two very different priests tackling one family’s case of
horrifying demonic possession. Father Tomas Ortega (Herrera) is the new face of
the Catholic Church: progressive, ambitious and compassionate. He runs a small
but loyal parish in the suburbs of Chicago. He has no idea that his quiet life
is about to change forever. Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, another
priest finds himself locked in a life-and-death struggle with evil. Father
Marcus Brennan (Daniels) is a modern-day Templar Knight, an orphan raised since
childhood by the Vatican to wage war against its enemies. Father Marcus is
everything Father Tomas is not: relentless, abrasive and utterly consumed by
his sacred mission. Caught in the middle is the Rance family, members of Tomas’
parish. On the surface, they’re a normal, suburban family, but all is not as it
seems in this household. The patriarch, Henry Rance (Ruck), is slowly but
surely losing his mind. Eldest daughter Katherine (Howey) has become a recluse
who refuses to leave her room. Her younger sister, Casey (Kasulka), thinks
she’s hearing strange noises coming from inside the walls. And mother Angela (Davis)
has been plagued by recurring nightmares, each more frightening than the last.
Angela believes there is something in the house, a demonic presence, growing
stronger by the day. Desperate, she begs Father Tomas for help, unwittingly
setting the naïve young priest on a collision course with Father Marcus.
Separately, each faces an insurmountable task, but together they become the
only hope against an evil force that has been mobilizing for centuries.

visions found in their common dream just might hold the key to the fate of the
world.
