Following its world premiere at FrightFest this summer, original documentary HOSTAGE TO THE DEVIL will release on VOD platforms in the UK and Ireland on Monday 17th October 2016, courtesy of Content Media.
Over five years in production, director Martin Stalker has made a film which examines age-old questions about the existence of the Deviland the debate over good versus evil, all through the life of a controversial Irish-born Jesuit priest, Fr Malachi Martin.
Using first person-interviews with paranormal royalty such as Lorraine Warren, Ralph Sarchie, and John Zaffis, along with dramatic reconstructions, archival evidence, and words straight from Martin, this spine-chilling documentary takes the audience on a journey through an extraordinary life marked by battles against the Vatican, scandal, contention, and most of all, a deep and all-encompassing belief in the theory and practice of exorcism.
The film explains in graphic detail the process and outcomes of such an ordeal, including the horrifying case study of a four-year-old girl whom Fr Martin assessed as requiring an exorcism. Thus was to be the last case he was involved in before he died under mysterious circumstances.
A child possessed. An exorcist locked in combat with an ancient evil. Using first- hand interviews, dramatic reconstruction, archival evidence and a dead man’s words, this documentary film tells the true story of Father Malachi Martin, and asks, in the battle for saving a soul, who really is ‘Hostage to the Devil’?
