Rating: B -- A chintzy found-footage occult/horror film lambasting the Catholic Church for its hypocrisy. Full Review

Despite its brief running time, the movie feels dragged out; like the priests, it will eventually lose its way. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- The horror genre is blessed to welcome another innovative female director who is telling stories and rebelling against the traditional gaze-pushing the envelope and experimenting in true artistic fashion. Full Review

"The Devil's Doorway" can't overcome the clichés of either the found-footage format or the "Satan is real!" sub-genre. Full Review

Smart in both form and content, this is an innovative, effective and necessary Irish horror film. It marks [director Aislinn] Clarke out as a distinctive talent to watch. Full Review

In spite of its flaws, the film is startlingly successful both at frightening audiences and at honoring the experiences of women held in Magdalene laundries. Full Review

Product Description:

Director Aislinn Clarke's debut feature film was inspired by the Magdalene Laundries in Ireland, where "fallen women" were confined and exploited for their labor under directives from the Catholic Church between the 18th and 20th centuries. Set in 1960 in Northern Ireland, this horror film follows Father Thomas Riley (Lalor Roddy) and Father John Thornto (Ciaran Flynn) as they investigate a reported miracle at a remote asylum. But instead of coming across a work of God, they find evidence of abusive nuns and demonic forces running amok.
