ABSTRACT
Michael, an American and son to a funeral director, yearns to shake up his surroundings and decides to join a seminary. Intending to embark on his ostensibly religious journey with a view to receiving a free college education by way of abdicating his vows upon completion of his studies, Michael's letter of resignation drafted when the time comes snowballs into a threat by the church to convert his education into a student loan worth $100,000, leading to his attending a fateful exorcism class in Italy that brings him face-to-face with a panoply of demonic figures.
