Exorcist 4 (2004)

Option 1Can't Watch?

Wait 30secs. Movie still not playing? Click the "Can't Watch?" tab.

If the movie didn't load, it means you are being blocked by a security service we use. This can happen for a number of reasons.

Click this first

A new tab will open and a basic security check like a captcha will be performed. After completing the check, close that page and return here.

Refresh this page. Wait 30 secs. The movie should load and you can just hit play.



If it still doesn't play, Click here to watch the movie

The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.

The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.

This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.

On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.

IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

They threw in a lot of good stuff in this one, i.e. Stellan Skarsgård, a Nazi angle, a voodoo tribe, a spooky church buried since the 15th century, a love story (yuk) etc. but this was always headed for a niche audience. The story is a bit too convoluted to be accepted by a huge audience like the original Exorcist film had. “The Exorcist” (1973) had massive appeal because it seemed like it was taking place at your neighbor’s house, not some catacombs in a buried church in Egypt. 3 stars.

thought this was so much better than the first one – better acting, script, editing, cinematography, sound, narrative structure and much better use of the space within the frame – looking forward to 5

I reiterate, Dominion is slightly better than this one. So the list from best to worst goes:

The Exorcist (normal and director’s cut) = Very Good
Exorcist: The Heretic = Good
Dominion = Ok
Exorcist: The Beggining = Meh
The Exorcist 3 (Theatrical Cut) = Terrible

I haven’t watched the director’s cut from the exorcist 3 but it’s probably the same crap.

Big Exorcist fan as you all may know..
This film is car to superior to the Dominion version.. it has a deeper story … It’s actually more believable and of course it’s not as good as the original or indeed the first version of legion BUT it has a great story and setting.

Some nice back story and some neat jumpy thrills … I like it .. I’m also that old I seen it on release in the cinema. . .

Saw this just a few weeks ago on another movie site and must say that its weak as piss and in no way comparable to the original. Save 2 hrs of your life and watch something else rather than trawl through this piece of cinematic garbage.
