A classic!

Rating: 10/10 (10 February 1999)

The Exorcist is a brilliant horror classic, from bestselling author William Peter Blatty, who scripted. The movie stars Linda Blair as a young girl, who is possessed by the devil. Her mother who's an actress, doesn't find this out, till she finds her bed shaking and moving by herself. Then after awhile, she becomes looking almost like a demon. Her mother, enlists the help of a young priest, who tries to talk to Regan (Blair) and get the demon out of her. Instead she also terroizes him, driving all of them out of her bedroom. They live in an apartment, to which has become legendary now, and the demon is trying to make Regan do stuff she doesn't, hurt even kill people. The pea-soup regurgitation scene is the best, and has become a memorable and famous scene, of the whole horror genre. The voice over is done by Mercedes McCaimbridge (extremely creepy), and some spectacular make-up effects. The acting, is also very well-done, with an extremely well-acted role by young Blair. Everyone else in the film, also does a great job. Although this isn't a movie for everyone because of the whole possessing thing, I do think, everyone who even if they don't like horror will like this. I must say, I was impressed with this film, even dealing with the Devil, you won't be offended or anything. The ending finale, is very intense, as is the whole entire movie, which will keep your stomach in knots from beginning to end. See it it's a classic. A 10. Rated R for violence, language, and brief sexuality.
