About This Movie

Deliver Us from Evil is a gripping documentary that delves deep into the harrowing tale of Father Oliver O'Grady, a man whose crimes against children are framed within a broader critique of the Catholic Church's systemic failures. Amy J. Berg's direction brings an unsettling tone, balancing the chilling testimonies of victims with O'Grady’s disconcerting rationalizations of his actions. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the weight of each story to settle in. It's not just about the horror of the abuse, but also the atmosphere of complicity that surrounds it. The interviews are raw, creating an almost hauntingly intimate experience, making it distinctive in the realm of documentaries about institutional abuse.

Intense subject matter, viewer discretion advised.Includes powerful firsthand accounts from victims.Thought-provoking commentary on institutional corruption.
