The Seventh Day is a 2021 American horror film written and directed by Justin P. Lange. It stars Guy Pearce, Vadhir Derbez, Stephen Lang and Keith David.

The film opens in 1995 Boston, where a young Father Peter Costello assists the veteran exorcist Father Louis in performing a harrowing demonic exorcism on a boy. The ritual goes awry: the boy’s body begins to burn and Father Louis ultimately loses his life while Peter stands by, traumatized by the event.

Flash forward to the present. Peter, now a hardened, rule-bending exorcist portrayed by Guy Pearce, is summoned by the Archbishop and paired with Father Daniel Garcia, a newly ordained priest played by Vadhir Derbez, who shows a latent ability to sense evil but has minimal field experience. The Church is facing a surge in demonic activity, and Daniel’s training begins immediately under Peter’s unorthodox tutelage.

Their first major case involves Charlie Giroux, a boy who has brutally murdered his entire family with an ax and is suspected of being possessed. Peter and Daniel travel to New Orleans to investigate. They test whether Charlie is truly possessed by subjecting him to spiritual rituals and confrontations, and they gradually uncover clues that suggest the supernatural is at play.
