Still scares me half to death

Rating: 9/10 (30 October 2006)

Okay, so I've seen The Exocist before, and I've wanted to for a long time since I was like, 9 or 10. But my mom wouldn't let me because the movie freaked her out like no other, and she said that she still has nightmares from it. But that's only because she went to see it in theaters when she was 11, so no wonder it scared the living daylights out of her. Anyway, I begged her for a very long time and she finally let me see it. AHH! It's not so much a *scary* movie but all that got me freaked out of my mind was her face. I mean, seriously, how can anyone not find that creepy? Don't get me wrong...I love the movie and I would definitely see it again, but I understand why my mom didn't want me seeing it. It was on TV last night and I asked my mom if she would like to watch it with the rest of the family and to my amazement she said "fine" so we watched it as a "family movie" and she closed her eyes through half the film! It was funny, but it's been a LONG TIME and it still scares her! It will probably always scare me every time I see it, but I'm a horror freak so this movie is AMAZING!
