Very dissapointing....

Rating: Null/10 (19 June 2002)

Once you realise that the start is actually The Exorcist and not some bad american film that has been wrongly put in the box....this film gets no better. The start drags out for ages in some desert, twice I had to rewind this film to make sure the director and writer at the start corresponded with what it said on the box, I was more than convinced that this was not the film that the media hyped it up to be! A little more action takes place when the mother 'thinks' that there are rats in the attic...hmm, how *scary*, yet this storyline is neither interesting or believable.
The scenes of possession are however a delightful reminder of why I am watching this film- To see what everyone said to be 'the scariest film ever.' Maybe in the 70's this film was groundbreaking, but now it has aged and the special effects are poor, ofcourse I have the respect that this was made in the 70's, but still, this film is out of date. My opinion is watch it for experience, but not really worth buying, a good experience of film history, but I can not say it is much more than that.
