The Breakdown

  • Treats evil as real and damning, countered by faith
  • Practical effects and building tension over cheap CGI
  • Heroic priests, family duty, and moral clarity
  • Some jump-scare reliance and based-on-true-story framing
  • Occult imagery heavy but never glorified

Side Effects

Loved this? Watch 'The Exorcist' next — classic faith vs evil, even heavier.
