OM DENNE EPISODE
Who was controversial exorcist and Vatican insider Father Malachi Martin? Is demonic possession real? What supernatural force may be working against the truth coming out?
In this special encore episode of Curious Explorers, we’re joined by Marty Stalker, the director of the Netflix documentary 'Hostage to the Devil,' which explores the life and exorcisms of Father Martin.
Marty reveals what he learned during his 6-year journey making the film, and also describes the supernatural “resistance” Marty encountered while making the movie and since then. The interview also delves deep into the complex character of Father Martin, the controversies around exorcism, and Marty's personal spiritual journey.
Tune in for an intriguing conversation about filmmaking and one of the Catholic church’s most enigmatic and polarizing figures.
