The Unholy

Supernatural themes, violence and coarse language

The Unholy follows Alice, a young hearing-impaired girl who, after a supposed visitation from the Virgin Mary, is inexplicably able to hear, speak and heal the sick.

As word spreads and people from near and far flock to witness her miracles, a disgraced journalist hoping to revive his career visits the small New England town to investigate.

When terrifying events begin to happen all around, he starts to question if these phenomena are the works of the Virgin Mary or something more sinister.

Review: The Unholy


Melbourne

So there's this deaf-mute girl named Alice (Cricket Brown). After an apparent visitation by the Virgin Mary, Alice is beginning to see, hear and yes, say things. A jaded journo passing through town, Gerry (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), thinks he may have stumbled upon the biggest story of the year. But as we know from many a religious-themed horror movie, miracles are never what they seem to be.

The semi-sinister reason for Alice's unprecedented transformation generates just enough spooky scares and kooky shocks to earn this middling thriller a pass mark.

Mercifully, the pacing here is a little more lively than usual, and the sense that all is not being taken too seriously is much appreciated also.
