Half of the documentary's screentime is a picture that has nothing to do with the story

The way this "documentary" is made makes it unbearable to watch. What is the point of showing the same picture over and over and over and over of the actor playing Roland Doe?The story is interesting, but the montage is so bad that you can't even focus on it. It looks like they did not have enough elements to use for the montage, so they tried to fill the gaps by repeatedly showing some pictures, and those pics don't even have anything in common with that time period unfortunately, they are not bad but they look as they would have been edited by a teenager obsessed with vintage filters on a bad photo editing app..If you tried to play a drinking game where you took a shot everytime they showed the same pic, you would die of alcoholic poisoning after the first 5 minutes.

Competently made religious propaganda.

It never ceases to amaze me what people will allow themselves to believe. This 'documentary' takes the line that this child was actually possessed by a demon. There is some cursory mention of psychiatric problems early on but it then jumps right into 'The Exorcist' shtick. They even found a 'psychotherapist' who claims to have assisted in exorcisms. Is she still allowed to practice? Of course they interview Catholic priests who back up the business plan of their church to keep the punters fearful. There are so many truly evil acts committed by men & women all by themselves, Why does a troubled young man jumping about and swearing warrant any attention, if not to further the agenda of a church. This should be watched by all rationalists as a sobering reality check.
