Trivia
The exorcist who actually performed the exorcism is a Protestant pastor named Lester Sumrall--not two Catholic priests. He built a church, the present Cathedral of Praise in Manila, after the success of the exorcism.

Filipino Exorcist

Because honesty is the best policy I have to say I didn't know fully what I was walking into. I read a synopsis but nowhere did it say that the movie was in Tagalog. I don't truly mind. I'm used to subtitles. I've watched more than my fair share of subtitled kung-fu movies and Japanese anime.

Clarita was really a Filipino version of "The Exorcist" with a few wrinkles. It had everything you come to expect in a possession movie: possessed girl, freaky contortions of the body, levitation, changed voice, rapidly deteriorating body, a priest or two, and an exorcism. Had it not all been done many times over before in American movies I may have appreciated this movie more.
