This is the one, the horror movie which all other horror movies wish they could be. I saw this for this first time when I was about 12, and I’ve thought about it often ever since. While anyone seeing it for the first time today may feel it’s somewhat dated, it’s still the gold standard. This movie is one of the Holy Three.
I’ve seen this movie countless times, and never once have I been bored for even a minute. I’ve read the book, and I’ve also read a book about the making of the movie. Believe it or not, The Exorcist III is comparable in quality.
Full review here.
The number one horror movie of all time. I cannot walk into a dark basement without the fear of meeing Reagan. I remember watching this movie for the first time. I was so scared, I grabbed some lunch meat from the fridge so I could bribe the family dog (Sandy) into sitting with me.
For some reason, if the dog was relaxed, you could rest assured that demons were not breaking into your living room (at least not at that moment).
I agree with everything Marty says
