Arizona Republic -
The Possession of Michael King is more scary than original.

Village Voice -
After a promising start, rote possession imagery eventually becomes the focus, culminating in a by-the-numbers ending.

The Hollywood Reporter -
The director-screenwriter does manage to invest the familiar proceedings with some quirky, original touches.

|
The A.V. Club -
After an efficient start, The Possession Of Michael King drags, weighing itself down with genre conventions the filmmakers don’t seem to understand or care about.

The Dissolve -
The Possession Of Michael King has its share of jolts, but it becomes exhausting down the stretch, and disappointing for its squandered potential.

The Possession of Michael King (2014)
The film tells the story of documentary filmmaker Michael King (Shane Johnson), who doesn’t believe in God or the Devil. Following the sudden death of his wife, Michael decides to make his next film about the search for the existence of the supernatural, making himself the center of the experiment – allowing demonologists, necromancers, and various practitioners of the occult to try the deepest and darkest spells and rituals they can find on him – in the hopes that when they fail, he’ll once and for all have proof that religion, spiritualism, and the paranormal are nothing more than myth. But something does happen. An evil and horrifying force has taken over Michael King. And it will not let him go.
