Every time I wonder what reality show can they come up with next, a network is still able to surprise me with how far they will go. The newest one goes to Discovery that has teamed with the Catholic Church to do a show called The Exorcism Files. According to EW’s James Hibberd, “The Exorcist Files will recreate stories of real-life hauntings and demonic possession, based on cases investigated by the Catholic Church. The project includes access into the Vatican’s case files, as well as interviews with the organization’s top exorcists — religious experts who are rarely seen on television”
You know if the show were on Syfy (where I think it should be) I would watch it, but since it is on Discovery I will skip because their programming is so boring and the production is below the standards I think they need to be for a show a like this. The re-enactments will be so bad I will probably find myself laughing at the actors that will need to their sell their souls to the devil for their next roles. Thus Syfy then can do a reality show about actors who sell their to the devil after doing a reality show reenacting exorcisms.
BTW since there is no video from the upcoming show, I decided to do post the trailer to Eli Roth’s The Last Exorcism that came out on DVD yesterday.
