In Nazi Germany, Father Merrin is faced with a moral dilemma that will haunt him all his life. He travels to Africa to become a quasi-archaeologist where he heads a team uncovering an ancient temple. He befriends a young priest and a doctor, while clashing with the British military presence. Inside the temple, they release the demon Pazuzu who promptly possesses a crippled boy. Merrin and the demon square off in another exorcism. Director Schrader somehow manages to make a dull Exorcist film, marred by laughable CGI effects that take the viewer right out of the film.
