The movie

A young deacon named Choi is dispatched to help Father Kim with an exorcism. Because of his bad reputation with the rest of the clergy, the priest asks Choi to record the events. When the demon shows his true colours though, it becomes obvious that they’re in for one hell of a night... Jang Jae-hyun expands on the idea of his previous short film to crank things up a notch and bring badass Korean evil-fighting to the next level. Pray for your life!
