The Exorcist - 9 stars out of 10

The Exorcist - 9 stars out of 10
Happy Halloween!
 
I give “The Exorcist” a high rating because it is an important film in the horror genre and reveals a chilling look into the world of demon possession.  That being said, I do not recommend this film to anybody who has not emotionally come to terms with the real-world horror of demon possession.  Before watching, there is a legitimate need to prepare yourself for the things that you are about to see. In spite of the nightmares that inevitably follow this film, one must respect the place that this movie holds in cinematic history.  The special effects are outdated but the raw adrenaline that runs through your veins for the final 30 minutes of this film makes this one of the most intense films ever.  This movie is not for the faint of heart and one truly should consider whether he is prepared to "experience" demon possession in the grotesque manner presented by this movie.  I know that it will be a long time before I face this one again.
