the 14 year old film fanatic movie review on the exorcist

Rating: 10/10 (3 December 2007)

Hi i am the 14 year old film fanatic. And your maybe thinking that people my age only like incredibly bad, unfunny and un-entertaining films like white chicks, scary movie etc. But like most film fanatics i do have taste in films unlike other people my age.
The exorcist. Number one on every scaries movie ever poll.
But is it?
Of course at the time of it's release my mother went to see it. And like hell she warned me not to watch it. But i watched the directors cut.
First of all. The cast was all very well chosen right up to the priest who was played fantastically. The mood of the film starts off on an easy pace,but then everything begins to become unsettiling. After unsetteling everything builds up to a terrefying melanchony,dark and disturbing atmosphere.
The special effects were all well done considering that they weren't done in post production.
But what makes the exorcist so blood curtling? Is it the atmosphere,the effects,the make-up. Perhaps it's all the events. Like the 360 head spin or the spider walk.
You only know how scary it is until you see it.
But please don't watch it expecting a scary film keep in mind it is a drama too
overall. Why doesn't this bloody site let you put above 10 starts?!!!!?????
