Horror. Thriller Angela Holmes is an ordinary 27-year-old until she begins to have a devastating effect on anyone close, causing serious injury and death. Holmes is examined and possession is suspected, but when the Vatican is called upon to exorcise the demon, the possession proves to be an ancient satanic force more powerful than ever imagined. It's all up to Father Lozano to wage war for more than just Angela's soul, but for the world as we know it.

	Author	Review
United States	Justin Chang Variety	"Mark Neveldine's first solo directorial effort is a silly, shrieky and eminently watchable exorcism thriller"	NEU
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"Somebody needs to exorcize this film from theaters"	NEG
United States	Chris Nashawaty Entertainment Weekly	"The Vatican Tapes is basically 'Exorcism’s Greatest Hits' played by a schlocky cover band"	NEG
United States	Nicolas Rapold The New York Times	"The director Mark Neveldine deploys queasy lighting and a trembling score, but his best choice is to let Ms. Dudley stare at us. She conveys unnerving shifts in self-awareness and sinister intent with her eyes."	NEU
United States	Martin Tsai Los Angeles Times	"Writers Christopher Borrelli and Michael C. Martin commit quite a handful of sins of contrivance that are difficult to absolve."	NEG
