Is the movie The Assent available on Netflix, Disney+, Prime or Apple TV+?

At Stream Tracker, we're digging into The Assent (2012), a tense, low-lit horror about Joel, a single dad who begins to suspect his little boy is possessed and must confront a controversial exorcist, Father Lambert, before the devil takes full control. Between chilling séances, demonic signs and a strained priest-son dynamic, the film leans on possession and exorcism lore to ratchet up the dread. This article checks where you can watch it — whether it’s on Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or AppleTV+ — and rounds up any festival prizes or notable recognition (the film did not receive major mainstream awards). If you’re into claustrophobic, faith-versus-evil stories, read on to see which platforms currently offer The Assent.

Synopsis

Joel, a young single father, becomes convinced his son is possessed after a series of unnerving, supernatural incidents plague their home. When Father Lambert, a controversial exorcist whose last patient died during treatment, arrives, the disturbances only grow darker and more relentless. The priest warns the hesitant Joel that unless the exorcism succeeds, the malevolent force will soon seize the boy entirely.
