Carl the Exorcist

About This Movie

So, 'Carl the Exorcist' is a comedy that flips the typical exorcism trope on its head. You’ve got Father Carl, who’s a bit of a bumbling idiot, and let me tell you, his first exorcism doesn’t go as planned at all. The pacing meanders, almost like it’s a buddy film at times, which adds to the charm, I think. It plays with themes of faith and doubt but never takes itself too seriously. The practical effects are surprisingly decent for the budget—some real classic touches there. The performances, especially from the lead, navigate that fine line between earnestness and slapstick. It’s distinctive in how it blends horror elements with humor, so it feels fresh in a genre that can be a bit stale.

Not your typical exorcism film, more of a comedic take · Interesting blend of horror and humor · Check out the practical effects, they have a nice retro feel
