Just Doesn't Hold Up

Rating: 6/10 (7 March 2018)

After many years, watched it again (since it just appeared on HBO).
Was very much looking forward to the horror it inspired 20 plus years ago.
1st, the good: The acting is fine. Polished professionals.
OK, now the "horror".
When Regan threw up, her head turned 180 degrees, lifted the bed, said nasty things, etc...sorry, I laughed. Mild terror for a second, but then, amusement.
Now in fairness, I'm a cafeteria Catholic (I believe in some aspects of religion, and at the same time know the earth to be billions of years old, not a the few thousand as the Bible claims).
I don't believe in a Devil or evil spirits, and find possession as real as the alien in the movie "Alien".
Prove it. "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof".
