The story starts with Reverend Cotton Marcus. He's been preaching, giving exorcisms and involved with the church since he was a child. But as time goes on, his beliefs falter, and he is left simply going through the motions. He firmly believes that exorcisms aren't real, and he sets out to prove this, via a documentary. He gets a letter from a father in Louisianna, who believes that his daughter is being possessed. So, Cotton decides this is the one he will prove himself on, and heads out the door to Louisianna. When he arrives at Marcus' house, he goes through all the initial acts, listening to stories and bull-sh*ting himself to an honest man, who is scared for his daughter. All the tests go as planned, and Cotton's staged exorcism is set to commence. Through a set of cleverly arranged trip lines and magnets, Cotton performs a very entertaining exorcism, and gets the family to believe he has abolished the demon. He leaves the family satisfied, fully confident that he has proved why exorcisms are all in the mind. Cotton's exorcism was undoubtedly funny, from the fake demon noises to the over the top performance from Cotton himself. Just like what you'd see from the book. When Nell shows up at Cotton's hotel, unannounced and in the middle of the night, signals go off that something is wrong. She's unresponsive, and they take her to the hospital, where her dad comes to get her in the morning. On his way back to the Sweetzer farm, he notices a fight between Nell and her father, Marcus. When Cotton gets inside the house he notices Caleb, Nell's brother, holding a rag to his mouth. He's been cut badly by Nell, in her fits of rage during her "sleep walking". A quick sign to Cotton, something is wrong. Agains Caleb's request, he is taken to the hospital and Cotton is left alone with Nell. Let the creepiness begin.

How to Watch The Last Exorcism Legally and Safely

If you want to stream The Last Exorcism through reputable and legal services, there are a few good options depending on where you are. Subscription platforms like HBO Max, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Apple TV+ sometimes carry The Last Exorcism films or related DC titles—though availability depends on your country.

If you’d rather not commit to a subscription, there are ad‑supported, free (but legal) platforms such as Tubi, Pluto TV, Peacock or Crackle (where available in your region) that occasionally host superhero films.

Lastly, don’t forget about library‑linked streaming options like Kanopy or Hoopla (if your library or university is registered), and official uploads by film distributors on YouTube—these can also give you legal access to classic movies.
