Editorial Review:
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:  - 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 ... Read More
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?
Rating: - Classic fear
Want some fear? This is the movie for you. The music will haunt you for the rest of your life.
Rating: - One of the best horror fims of all time.
Like many of you out there I grew up in a large Catholic family.
And I, like many of you had older siblings who were only too happy to show me this when I was nine or ten years old.
LOL.
I still have nightmares. I'm kidding, but at the age of ten, it left an impression.
The movie itself?
Brilliant, shocking, it's withstood the test of time and deserves its place in Hollyweird history.
The shocking element is also its biggest downfall.
