In many ways, Deliver Us From Evil is a significantly different film than Emily Rose, although they are both loosely based on true stories, both feature a heroic Catholic priest as a primary character (although the heroism of the two priests is quite different), and, most importantly, both share the central thematic concern of an agnostic confronted and eventually transformed by clear supernatural evil. Derrickson himself is partially responsible for reviving the exorcism subgenre with The Exorcism of Emily Rose (2005), the first serious demonic possession film since The Exorcist spawned a legion of bad imitators in the 1970s. There have been a lot of exorcism movies over the past 10 years-far too many, most people, even hardened horror fans, would say-which puts Scott Derrickson’s Deliver Us From Evil in the precarious position of risking summary dismissal as just another one of those.
