Michael Kovak trabaja en la funeraria de su padre, un próspero empresario con el que no se entiende y cuyo oficio le resulta decepcionante. Desencantado con su vida, decide ingresar en un seminario. Su idea es aprovechar la formación para obtener un título universitario sin coste y renunciar a sus votos cuando termine. Las primeras escenas lo sitúan entre las aulas y la rutina diaria del seminario, donde Michael se mueve con la intención de marcharse cuanto antes. La película está dirigida por Mikael Håfström, y el reparto principal incluye a Colin O'Donoghue en el papel de Michael.

Trivia about The Rite

Håfström asistió a algunos exorcismos en Roma, aunque nunca estuvo en la sala donde se realizaban, y podía oír lo que ocurría dentro.
Según el actor Franco Nero, grabó un monólogo de nueve minutos que se eliminó por completo del montaje final.
Matt Baglio presenció más de veinte exorcismos realizados por el padre Gary Thomas, cuya experiencia sirvió de base para el libro original.
El padre Gary Thomas, que fue asesor en el rodaje, afirmó que los exorcismos del filme eran «muy precisos», aunque con algunas licencias previstas.

Quotes by The Rite

  • Be careful Michael, choosing not to believe in the devil doesn't protect you from him.
  • I believe that people prefer to lie to themselves than face the truth.
  • The terror is real, Michael. It's real. But you'll only defeat it when you believe. So go now, lock me up. Go now. Lock me up!
