“I do think that exorcisms are something people need to take seriously,” said Derrickson. Director Scott Derrickson told me he believes people need to take the power of Satan seriously. Making the film changed many cast members minds’ about whether the Devil is real (see sidebar article). I had a chance to talk about the movie with the Derrickson, Bruckheimer and the cast of Deliver us from Evil last month in Hollywood and to see a sneak preview of the film. The Jerry Bruckheimer film Deliver Us From Evil teams up with Director Scott Derrickson, whose The Exorcism of Emily Rose was highly regarded for its serious treatment of the phenomenon of demonic possession and exorcism. He joins forces with an unconventional Jesuit priest Father Joe Mendoza (Edgar Ramírez) and comes to believe in the power of God after dealing with a threat to his young family and a gruesome exorcism involving a clearly possessed man. Based on actual events, the rough and tough Sarchie begins to investigate a series of disturbing and inexplicable crimes in the Bronx, New York. Sarchie is a fallen-away Catholic with a young believing family who leaves him at home to attend Sunday Mass because Sarchie tells them, “he doesn’t believe in fairytales”. It is the real -life horror and conversion story of New York police officer Ralph Sarchie (played brilliantly by Eric Bana). Deliver Us From Evil opens today (7/2/14) and will “deliver” an R-rated supernatural thriller that combines a perfect blend of faith, redemption and the sheer horror of evil.
