The original Exorcist is a beautiful multilayered film - one that is simply plotted as a fight between good and evil and the bits in between.
I first saw it at a midnight screening in Lincoln. And I was underage!

Not another reboot?
I hated the Evil Dead reboot. The Original trilogy is good perfect.
In Evil Dead 2, Ash had a chainsaw. Evil Dead 3, What the fuck was that about?
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remakes/reboots did nothing for me. I have no idea why the original was banned in the UK? There's hardly any gore just screaming and running around. The soundtrack is more demented than the film.

Totally agree - one of my absolute favourites.

Yes extraordinary reflection on Humanity in 2023 that they simply could not make the original film again now. Linda Blair has grown up to be a very attractive, articulate and balanced lady.
