Overrated somehow..!

Rating: Null/10 (30 November 2001)

Last Sunday I saw this legendary horror classic (it was the cut version, not the directorÂ´s cut that I checked out..!) for the first time and it was something like a little disappointment to me, because William FriedkinÂ´s "The Exorcist" was not that disturbing it ought to be..! No doubt, the atmosphere was creepy and the performances of Max von Sydow, Ellen Burstyn, Lee J. Cobb and especially Linda Blair in the role of her life time were all stunning, but the rest of the film was oddly empty and didnÂ´t come up to the founded expectations! This flick is okay for rainy Sundays like the last one was, however itÂ´s no classic or a cult movie in my eyes! Perhaps I should just watch the directorÂ´s cut...
