About:
This was the prequel originally planned and shot before studio fuckery led to a new film being reshot and released in 2004 – Exorcist: The Beginning. When that bombed, this was resurrected and released a year later to not much interest either. If you’ve seen the 2004 version, this one is probably a little more fleshed out while focusing lesser on the horror aspects.

I found the opening scene unbearably suspenseful. This was originally to be directed by John Frankenheimer but he died a few weeks before filming was scheduled to begin. He could have made this script work; he would have been able to wring such suspense from it. Also, the film’s financing was cut off before all of the CGI effects could be completed, which is why they look like shit.

Surprisingly, it was better than the 3rd movie, I’m not sure if it was better than the 4th, maybe I have to watch that one again, but aside from the shitty special effects, this one was less boring than I remember the 4th being. I guess the list from worst to best goes:

5- Exorcist III (awful)
4- Exorcist the beginning (boring)
3- This one (boring most of the time but had some entertaining parts)
2- Exorcist II: The Heretic (good)
1- The Exorcist (very good)

I think you’re most likely right. Just imagine how empty & without meaning their miserable little lives are. Probably some serious mental health issues too i’d imagine.

My life is empty and without meaning but it is not miserable. I am quite content to potter about each day neither contributing or taking from society.
As for the lowQ trolls they use the same vernacular I did when I was 11 it is up to all of us to help them improve so they will become good citizens in the future because when I get old I will need someone to wipe my arse and change my shitty sheets and I would prefer it was done gently and without malice.

Deliberately provoking someone online must be so appealing and habitual to many, enhanced by the fact that this site is accessible to unknown identities galore.
Your self-conceit is gluttonous and some of you cut off your nose to spite your face. Nobody gives a fuck about dignity, you’re all too focused upon your arrogance, misguided slothful allusions and the pack-mentality that you created.
I choose not to partake in your highly opinionated, aggressive and extremely abusive mannerisms. You’ll come undone on your own.

Hardly anyone wants to comment constructively on this site, for fear of being humiliated and ridiculed with the lowest form of wit possible. There are some tactful unbiased comments here relating to films, reading the constructive critiques and some light banter is interesting. It’s needless to target certain individuals with preconceived notions or jarring differences, it only serves to manifest a tirade of abuse without any concrete objective. It seldom thwarts their narrow-minded perceptions and thus, all hell unfolds.

how wonderful that a man with a name such as psycho bud tender ( oh such clever wit !) uses all the terms and slogans that have taught to u by the media and those in power . insecure , homophobic ! how very tolerant of you good sir ! followed by the waste of life , oh such a wonderful little lefty mutant u must be , the mirror u hold up , is reflected in your words . insecurity , and mental illness , and thus true waste of a life is and has been shown by SCIENCE to be an affliction of people of your phenotype ! but good news , is to be had as your time upon the earth is but short as lefties do not HAVE CHILDREN ! it seems that the much more conservative right and …sigh low iq (impulse control right guys?) are the only ones keeping up the “T R A D I T I O N A L ” game , marriage , children and the like . so soon a GLORIOUS UPRISING the likes thee world has never seen will take place over EUROPE , NORTH AMERICA and BRITAIN then we will have NATSOC the world over , !!! and its all because of people like you flinging open the doors ,open borders , so thank u good sir

I’d personally like to see a return back to how this truly marvelous site was run. . . Ergo.. no comments.
Serious film buffs like myself can do constructive banter and the odd leg pulling.
I’m here for the film’s.. not some pre teen silly poorly educated fickle trite bull. . .

BTW

This is not too bad.
Not particularly worthy of the Exorcist brand. But it’s ok

I wanted to curtail the monotony of the trolling, but I agree with you, this film in the franchise dwindled my appeal.
The energetic and competent critiquing are engaging, in addition to the lively, cheeky and witty debate.
It’s compelling that ignorance projects hostility… Your personal opinion is adherent, valued and humble.

I know right? Trolling only begets trolling. Anonymity tends to bring out the worst in people online, and with that, the general concept is: if no one’s gonna be serious, then why the fuck should I? And that’s how toxic comment sections are made.

You could at least up your lowQ responses. They read like 12 year old school-yard jibes. Maybe eat more tuna and thicken up your thin-jizzy because I hear matisse is partial to swallow and I am sure she prefers something of substance to make up for her vegan diets lack of vitamin-s. Roger Melly publications might help out and nothing like some nostaligic viz-esque fumblings to lift the glory of my mornings.

‘Mellie’… Perhaps you should thicken your own drizzle and stop beating your own deficient meat. Just because you’re devoid of intimacy yourself, perhaps being a bitchy, sour old poof called ‘muffles’ deters your wishful thinking.

Did you know that it’s possible, right, for a person to become a ghost while they’re still alive? Meaning, that your existence is something I’m not particularly happy about, so I prefer to think of you as a fucking pissy phantom.

@Elliot Spencer; Has your mom stopped lactating recently or did it dry up into powdered milk? I only say this because being off the titty has made you into a bit of a nasty pasty.
