Not scary, but good movie

Rating: 9/10 (24 February 2002)

I saw The Exorcist today for the first time because I wanted to see what everyone was so scared of. Before I even watched this movie, I knew it wasn't going to bother me. I laughed through most of it. First of all, I am a very devout Christian so I know how Satan can be. So when I saw this movie, I wasn't scared of anything I saw because I am not afraid of the Devil and no one else should be either. But to be totally honest, I'm a little bit more reluctant of movie plots that can't possibly happen in real life. For example, take Freddy Krueger. Till this day, The Nightmare on Elm Street movies still make me flinch. But movies that involve demon possessions don't bother me because I know that stuff happens-look in the Bible for goodness sakes. I know some people say there is no such thing as the devil. For all you science buffs out there, you may believe there isn't. But some people like to look at evil actions from a science and spiritual point of view.
