let jesus F*** you!

Rating: Null/10 (22 November 2002)

One of the most over-rated films of all time. This movie is not scary in the least and yet somehow it is one of the most recognizable "scary" movies. I don't understand why. Maybe if you are a sheltered Christian - then, I assume, this is scary stuff. I've just never found the devil to be scary. If anything, the classic, literary, and biblical character of Lucifer has always had a romanticism in its appeal.
This film's scare factor is a complete puzzle to me. A devil-possessed young girl spewing profanities and projectile vomit is simply comical. Some of Linda Blair's lines in this film are downright silly.
The only notable element of this film was the special effects. Make-up effects artist Dick Smith is a revolutionary in his field and this film is a showcase of his craftsmanship. The movie broke new ground only with Smith's contribution. This film should only be watched as a testiment to some of Dick Smith's work...or if you just want to see an underage girl masturbate with a crucifix.
