A frightening masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (3 September 2002)

I was told "The Exorcist" is the "scariest movie you'll ever see"...I'm not sure if it's the scariest, but it is frightening and the story is told quite well.
If you don't believe in god or the devil, then I suppose it's not the best horror movie for you...but if you do, then it can be quite good! The Exorcist is a classic that will always be on my list when I want to get a bit freaked out...truly there is nothing more frightening than taking something most everyone can identify fear and evil with, (the devil) and placing it in a young girl.
I give it 9 out of 10, because it was a bit slow at times...but still the effect remains the same. If you haven't seen it yet, now is as good as any time to rent it. Just don't watch it with the lights out by yourself...
