Aaaarrggghh...not as scary as made out.

Rating: Null/10 (9 June 2001)

I saw this film on TV and it had a 5 minute thing beforehand where some film buff I didn't recognise stated that this film was very scary and shouldn't be seen with a full stoumach, blah, blah, with children, blah, blah, without sitting on a commode or wearing a nappy, blah. This made me rub my hands in glee, all the signs that this was going to be truly horrific were in place (banned for 25 years in the UK and vomiting in cinemas). I found the film completely unscary and apart from the vaginal insertion of a crucifix completely unhorrific. 1/2 the film is spent trying to find weather the kid has a demon inside or rather nasty case or prepubescent acne and spasming. The film's called the Exorcist not The Neurologist so what do you think? The people in the film are so insufferably nice that I found myself siding with the foulmouthed mischeivous demon.
