The scariest horror film of all time, and most interesting horror film of all time

Rating: 10/10 (22 June 2003)

Horror films these days aren't interesting, all there is, is a guy with a mechede chasing after you trying to kill you. To many kills these days, and no scares is what I'm trying to point out. These days no horror films scare me at all, you have Jason Vorhees, and Freddy Krueger, they don't scare me, because in the movie they don't bring anything to reality. Instead this film brings the fact that you could get possessed by the devil to reality. It makes you think: "Oh my gosh what if this happened to me," which never happens anymore. Another wonderful thing about this film is that it remains a commercially succesful film while also showing an interesting plot, and story. Everybody's acting, and actressing is fantastic in here. I couldn't believe that Linda Blair was actually playing the role, a little girl playing an evil spirit trapped inside of a body. I know the voices of her weren't real, but her, the faces, lip talking. The special effects were fantastic, they really make William Peter Blatty's novel come alive. I saw The Sting, and I thought this was much better than that, it kept you entertained, while The Sting was constantly boring. I'm not saying this should've won Best Picture, because to tell you the truth horror films aren't the academies style. While I'm a big fan of horror films, I know what's scary, and what isn't, and this is the ultimate scare. If you aren't a big fan of the horror film genre forget seing this because this is truly for horror film lovers. This movie should be looked back at horror films to come. Four Star movie, see this right away if you haven't, and you love horror films, but be prepared for a scare.
