It's a good movie... but was I supposed to be scared?

Rating: Null/10 (20 July 1999)

Ok, so it's a good horror... but it wasn't scary. I know though that it is probably a scary film for others, but I am 14 years old, and usually watch more recent horror movies like Species II... where the gore and things like that are common. There are plenty of movies out there that are more scary than The Exorcist. Wait though, I have to give the film credit, that this movie did freak me out though. But not in a good way. I was shocked at the bad and vulgar things in this movie. I mean, what about that little scene where the girl is getting raped by the Catholic cross thing? It's what the "devil" possessing her was saying that was so bad, and that shocked me that anyone could actually make a movie, and make a child actress say those things. But all in all, it is a cool horror movie, that is greatly made and anyone that likes horrors, and wants to give this movie a chance, (note to yourself: this isn't going to scare you though) I say, go for it. It's a good movie for it's time. I have noticed though that people have been complaining about this movie not being as scary as they thought. oh, Pleeease! Keep in mind this movie was made in 1973... so.. umm... it won't be as scary to people like me that sees this movie today in time, but still, it is freaky and cool. Rent this today! =) My votes?
AGE THAT YOU SHOULD BE TO SEE THIS FILM: i'd say 14... HOW GOOD IT IS: i'd give it an 8/10 HOW SCARY IT IS: umm... 1 being= it wouldn't scare a baby, to 10 being= it would scare the crap right out of you... i would give it a 5.
RENT THIS TONIGHT... BUT ONE THING, DON'T EXPECT A SCARE FEST.
