Rating: - Worst movie ever
OK, I would say this is the worst movie ever, but Blade Runner, A Clockwork Orange and In The Name of the King have those titles. There is no background for the old guy in the beginning. We don't know why the demon selected this particular child. The younger priest that first meets the possessed chick doesn't even try to do it himself first before bringing in the other guy (again, no real explanation). The self sacrifice at the end is empty and really didn't have any value (they left nothing behind as far as we know). The detective is a joke, provides absolutely no value to the story. Only watch if you enjoy movies that provide absolutely no entertainment value.
Rating: - The Exorcist (movie DVD)
It's still a frightening movie, but I used it as an example of the "old
way" of thinking of demonic possession. Theology has preogressed a lot since the movie came out.
Rating: - Correction to DVD review of film
I read the DVD review that stated that the scene between Lt. Kinderman and Fr. Dyer was not in the original film and that devotees of the film found this added scene as altering the film. I saw the film when it was originally released as a college student and the scene was in the original film. When I got my copy of the film when it was first released on VHS the scene was missing. This scene was restored in this version--not added. What I do not remember about the film when it originally played in theaters is whether Father Dyer handed back the medal to Mrs. McNeil or whether it was her just handing it back to him. Sorry, I usually don't write reviews but I couldn't let this error about the Kinderman-Dyer scene go uncorrected.
Rating: - You won't sleep for a week...
If you actually believe in real exorcisms, and possesions, then this movie will keep you shaking for weeks. It's traumatizing. Although terrifying, it's also a great movie. I don't even like to watch scary movies, but this one is one I love to have in my collection.
Rating: - THE EXORCIST " THE VERSION NEVER SEEN BEFORE"
VIDEO CASSETEE, " THE EXORCIST" THE VERSION NEVER SEEN BEFORE"
VERY REALISTIC, FIRST MOVIE OF IT'S TIME, MOST DISTURBING, AND VERY GRAPHIC LANGUAGE. NO OTHER HORROR MOVIE COMPARES, THAT IS, IF YOU COULD KEEP FROM TURNING AWAY!
IT WILL KEEP YOU UP AT NIGHT WONDERING COULD THIS EVER HAPPEN TO ME?
