Did the real priest love or hate The Exorcist?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT As the inspiration for the 2023 film The Pope's Exorcist, the real Father Gabriele Amorth unsurprisingly had a strong opinion about the classic horror movie The Exorcist. With the movie finally hitting Netflix, The Pope's Exorcist has gained another wave of attention after its successful theatrical run this year.
Although The Pope's Exorcist makes a number of changes from the true story, Russell Crowe's same-named character is based on the real-life Catholic exorcist named Father Gabriele Amorth, who started his work in 1986. Given the fact that he was alive when The Exorcist was released and his personal connection to the topic, it's natural that Father Gabriele Amorth would have an opinion on the classic horror movie that doubtlessly had a cultural impact on his work.
Father Gabriele Amorth Loved The 1973 Movie The Exorcist In his autobiography An Exorcist Tells His Story, Father Gabriel Amorth identified The Exorcist as his all-time favorite movie. He dubbed the film a reflection of a true story with overblown special effects. Though The Exorcist is his favorite, he also praised the Catholic horror movie The Rite when it premiered at a film festival . This movie also focuses on seminary students and priests trying to exorcise a demon from a young girl.
The Exorcist Made Father Gabriele Amorth’s Job Possible According to Fortune, The Exorcist is credited with a steep increase in the number of exorcism requests given to the Catholic Church. These requests provided a need for more trained exorcists that the Church backed. Because of their trepidations about exorcisms, Catholic parishes were unprepared for this surge. However, Catholic leadership eventually came around to the practice, appointing more exorcists.
