Watch Bad Exorcists

Bad Exorcists is a horror-comedy film from 2015 that follows two inept exorcists, Father Lucas (Sean Roney) and Father Michael (Alex Knapp), as they attempt to save a young woman named Sarah (Julian Master) from her demonic possession. The film starts with Father Lucas and Father Michael, who are both struggling to keep their failing exorcism business afloat, as they are contacted by a desperate family who believes that their daughter Sarah is possessed by a demon. The exorcists agree to take on the case, hoping that it will bring some much-needed business to their door.

Upon arriving at the family's home, Father Lucas and Father Michael are greeted by a strange and eerie atmosphere. They learn that Sarah's possession is more complex than they anticipated, and they soon realize that they are in over their heads. However, the duo refuses to give up on their mission, even as they face numerous obstacles, including a lack of practical knowledge about exorcism techniques, and their own romantic relationships with each other.

As the exorcism continues, the demons begin to reveal themselves more and more, and the stakes become higher. Sarah's condition worsens, and Father Lucas and Father Michael have to use all their skills, as well as some unconventional methods, to save her from the clutches of the demons.

Another standout performance belongs to Julian Master who portrays Sarah, the girl who is possessed by demons.
