Amazon.com:
Director William Friedkin was a hot ticket in Hollywood after the success of The French Connection, and he turned heads (in more ways than one) when he decided to make The Exorcist as his follow-up film. Adapted by William Peter Blatty from his controversial bestseller, this shocking 1973 thriller set an intense and often-copied milestone for screen terror with its unflinching depiction of a young girl (Linda Blair) who is possessed by an evil spirit. Jason Miller and Max von Sydow are perfectly cast as the priests who risk their sanity and their lives to administer the rites of demonic exorcism, and Ellen Burstyn plays Blair's mother, who can only stand by in horror as her daughter's body is wracked by satanic disfiguration. One of the most frightening films ever made with a soundtrack that's guaranteed to curl your blood, The Exorcist was mysteriously plagued by troubles during production, and the years have not diminished its capacity to disturb even the most stoical viewers. Don't say you weren't warned! --Jeff Shannon

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - How Dick Smith changed the world
THE EXORCIST will make 1973 live in infamy. But in a good way. This film is No. 3 of my Deeply Personal series of reviews--films that changed the world.

1st off: Dick Smith did the makeups for this film, and in case you did not know, is the greatest makeup artiste in history.

2nd: I am NOT reviewing a Blu-ray, death ray or shrink ray or any other kind of ray. I review FILM.

As if you didn't get it, this movie scared the sh** out of the whole world. Because of ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A classic of the horror genre
There have been so many reviews written on this movie that I won't give a detailed review. Read the other 800+ reviews for a more thorough analysis of this classic movie. However, I just want to make a few observations and give some personal opinions.

The Exorcist is referred to as "The Scariest Movie Of All Time" on the DVD cover. Well, perhaps it may well have been up to that time (1973), though that of course is debatable. Personally, I can think of 20 other horror movies that ... Read More
