TV Show Rating

Discovered this on Amazon Prime and hadn't heard of it before now. There is only one season consisting of six episodes and yes I did binge watch them in one day. Martin Shaw is the main character playing a priest who carries out exorcisms. The story does run through all six episodes and it does finish at the end of episode six. Not sure how season two would be played out as the story did finish. You don't get all the special effects in today's films and TV series but it is still compelling and makes you think. Also what lady can resist Martin Shaw.

I was very leery of this film, after The Last Jedi, I don't trust anything Rian Johnson touches. But, I can't resist a locked-house-esque mystery.
The whole 'murder' is fairly straightforward, and it's 'explained' early on. Though, it's baffling to me, because in the end, the final act was indeed what it was first perceived as.
The cast was pretty good, but the political discussions could have been cut out. It would have been a stronger movie without all of that.
Was it easy to figure out? Relatively, if you follow your gut, you're right about who was the 'culprit'.
Entertaining, but I never need to see it again.
