Remember this movie was released in 1973. If you were Disturbed by it in 2022, how do you think people in 1973 felt. They were not as numb to disturbing images, as we are today.

Actually, in the 70s and early 80s movies "went there" way more often than now. Movies now are safe. This movie wouldnt be made in 2022, no way. There was a grittiness to life in 1973 that doesnt exist now. I hear you but forget "disturbing images", there was an aspect of life that was more disturbing that allowed this movie to be made and released for public consumption.

@hughmcboo8329 Год назад

On a date, I saw this in a theater around Halloween 2000 when they released the version “you’ve never seen”. Afterwards, we had to walk back home, just a few blocks, at night. The girl I was with was cracking up at how scared I was. Looking back, I can smile about it but I’ve never been so shook by a movie that It had me ready to run like hell back home. Still, an amazing experience I’ll never forget.

My mother saw the movie when it was released in 1973 and she said there were 4 nuns who came to watch the movie, and at the end of the show a group of people were so freaked out they begged the nuns to escort them on the dark walk home., which they did. My mother also said a lot of people were taking the little Gideon bibles that were being handed out just outside the theater exit.

The crucifix scene is one of the most visceral scenes in movie history. No wonder people ran out of the cinema in the 70's

@rhaenyralikesyoutube6289 Год назад

The imagery is still disturbing even by today's standards. I know Linda Blair isn't actually doing that to herself from the special features, but still it looks convincing. What she's doing is putting the crucifix into a box between her legs with movie blood, and at her age at that time, she said she had no clue what masturbation was.

The "spider walk" down the stairs scene was actually omitted from the theatrical version, because they couldn't successfully hide the wires that helped her get down the stairs like that. In 2000, the movie's original director's cut version received a haul over, and the wires were erased, allowing for that scene to be added back in.

@mcbeezee2120 Год назад

Thanks for that trivia. Rewatching several times, I think you can see where a wire was attached to the gal's "pajama top". If I'm not mistaken, it appears that the material, where the wire was attached, pulls the material a bit.

@ViperleoneNevar Год назад

From Wikipedia: "Spider-walk" scene Stuntwoman Ann Miles performed the spider-walk scene in November 1972, after having practiced it for two weeks.[84] Vercoutere had designed a special harness, but she did not need it; as a former college gymnast at Florida State she was already a skilled enough contortionist to do the scene[85] on the first take.[84] Friedkin cut it over Blatty's objection just prior to the premiere, since he thought it appeared too early in the film for such a drastic effect on Regan to be visible. Whether the scene had been shot at all was debated by fans for years afterwards-Friedkin denied having done so-until British critic Mark Kermode found the footage in Warners' archives while researching his book on the film in the mid-1990s. When he showed it to Friedkin, the director said he had probably forgotten filming the scene. It was restored to the 2000 director's cut.[85]

@emwa3600 Год назад

I saw it along with thousands of others in the original theatrical version. We saw it on home-video for decades later. I have two VHS tapes (one recorded from HBO over TV in 1980 or 1981) with the spiderwalk, and the first two DVDs in the late '90s and early 2000s had it. None of those distinguished "dir cut".

Hats off to Mercedes McCambridge who voiced Pazuzu. The physical regiment she put herself through to get her voice to sound like that was amazing. She originally wasn't credited for providing the voice but after much legal wrangling, she was finally given a credit. You'd think this film would've been a lock to win a best special effects Oscar, but for some reason, the Academy left out the category that year. Talk about getting robbed.

The makeup on Father Merrin is so freaking good. Max Von Sydow was like, our ages, when he did this movie, and they aged him up so convincingly I didn't know it until years later, when I saw him as the Three Eyed Raven in Game of Thrones. I thought "Damn, he looks just the same as he did in 1973!", but that just shows what a good job the 1973 makeup department did. They made him look just like he ended up looking much later in life.

I like to freak people out (if they don't know about the age make up), by telling them to compare him in 1973, in the Exorcist, to him in 1993, in Needful Things, in which he plays the devil and looks 20 years younger, 20 years later.

I’ve seen this quite a few times. It’s definitely one of the scariest movies I’ve seen but it’s also very good. Everyone always talks about how frightening it is, but there’s one thing that always grabs me more than the fear. I’m always left with feelings of being very moved by the commitment of Fr Karras and Fr Merrin in the face of something so terrifying. Like Karras overcoming the tormented guilt over his mother and Merrin literally was just unwavering and just kept going 100% until his body gave out. At the end, they gave up everything to help that little girl. I’m honestly not religious, but that’s the feeling I walk away with after watching.

That was the absolute best reaction to this movie I've seen! This is how people in the theaters reacted; so disturbed from a variety of things this movie put right out there, in your face, nothing held back! They couldn't pause a thing tho, so just left, or dealt with it. The Exorcist lures you in with its slow burn then hits you with progressively more disturbing angles to ones individual sensibilities; attacking with the grossout, shocking language and actions. That factor amped to 11 as it comes from such a young innocent girl. It makes you think bad thoughts because you must decide if you should help her, abandon her, or end her. Regardless, the overall effect is that by the end you feel emotionally and physically drained, just washed out. Then it gets dark outside....and you have to turn out the light and face the quiet sometime... .

The Exorcist is a masterclass in traditional horror films. The scariest thing is truly the viewer's own imagination. All the movie needs to do is trigger that imagination.

My father saw this one in theaters. He said people were leaving the theater mid viewing because they were so disturbed. Such a great movie and another wonderful reaction!! Thanks for all the great Halloween season content!!

@christinegelabert1651 Год назад

@Jon M That's the truth! People were actually throwing up and running out of the theater because they was so scared. In some cases people actually passed out! You can look it up on RU-vid and find the reactions of when it was first shown in different places like California and NYC theaters and a couple other places around the country. It shows a lot of interviews from people afterwards. It also shows people being carried out of the theater who had passed out! Yeah, it was a pretty wild time because nobody had seen anything this graphic on screen. It was also a lot of protests going on back then against this movie. A lot of religious groups were saying that it was sacrilegious because of the exorcism they didn't feel that it was right to show it a so-called horror movie depiction.

When this came out, I snuck into the theater with my friend and his older brother. I was 8. It was pretty intense for a kid and I didn't sleep very well for quite a while. A year later I saw Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I met Linda Blair in 2018 and got to talk to her for while. She was really sweet and of course I got an autographed photo of her as the demon.

Some info on the movie, the fighting dogs are a foreshadowing of the eventual conflict between good (the priest) and evil (demon named Pazuzu). Pazuzu is from ancient Mesopotamia and was known as king of the demons of the wind (southwest wind) and brings famine and locusts. There’s an exhibit at the Met museum in NYC that is called beyond good and evil where they talk about him in the Epic of Gilgamesh. There’s actual clay tablets depicting him. What some don’t know is that he (Pazuzu) was actually a defender against a different entity called Lamashtu the worst of all the female demons and daughter of Anu (the god of the sky). She killed children and drank the blood of human men and ate their bodies. She’s known as “the bearer of seven names,” and described in incantations as the “seven witches.” Anu is the equivalent of “god” “Yahweh” “Allah” who is the father of benevolent and malevolent beings. The priest was taking nitroglycerin which is good for the heart. And the reason the demon showed up is because Regan decided to play with the ouija board. Her mom should’ve got her a horse to play with instead.

@Krzemieniewski1 Год назад

Great descriotion. Pazuzu despite his evil nature often was a defender of people against greater evil.

@keithmays8076 Год назад

"Poison to fight poison." Some ancient medicines were like that. But still that guy was one demon you did not want to fuck with. So evil that other demons steered clear of him. After watching this at 13, to this very day, I will not even say his name out loud. That's just inviting bad ju-ju.

@teejohnson5531 Год назад

I saw this movie when I was 15 (in 1973). I've watched it every year since. It is still one of the best horror movies I've ever seen. Even if you hate it, you have to admit it's terrifying and very well done. Love your reaction! It's completely reasonable considering how realistic the movie is. When we came home that night, I waited until my sister was almost asleep, and said "Kimmy, why you do this to me?". She still gets mad at me if I bring that up.

I bought the DVD back in the 90's and I think it was on the director commentary track they described how Mercedes McCambridge (voice of possessed Regan) was tied to a chair, smoked a pack of cigarettes, ate raw eggs, and did shots of whiskey before her vocal performance and saying the most vile stuff as little Regan. She earned her place in movie history, but for the longest time was not credited in the movie until decades after the film was released. Quite possibly one of the best reaction videos ever. You pulled it together and survived. Godspeed!

My family moved into a house in 1958, in Pennsylvania outside Philly. I had just turned 5 years old. I knew immediately there was something about the house i was very afraid of. Well my feeling was NOT wrong. For the next 5 years any time i had a ringing in my ears before bed time, i knew my visitor was paying me a visit. It would start with me waking up, probably 1 or 2 am and i'd hear walking around downstairs along with a grunting sound. He would then come up the stairs, go past my bedroom, grunting the entire time, then go silent. A minute or so later, i'd hear the grunting and foot steps coming down the hall, and he'd come in my room. He would walk around grunting, then sit on my bed. This scenario would happen at least once a week for 5 years. My sister also actually saw the man. When he went past my room, he paid her a visit, at beat on her back. One day we came home from lunch, and my sister went up to use the bathroom. All the sudden my mom and i heard her screaming. She said this man came out of my parents bedroom and stood in front of the mirror making faces. This was at 12 noon.! We told our parents about it, and they wouldn't believe us. Years later i was telling my Aunt about who ever was haunting the house, and she said he was probably a run away slave who had, had his tongue cut out, and that is why he grunted.

"The Power of Christ compels you!" Fun Fact: According to William Friedkin, the subliminal shots of the white faced demon are actually rejected makeup tests for Regan's possessed appearance. Too Real Fact: Upon its initial theatrical release the film affected many audiences so strongly that at many theaters, paramedics were called to treat people who fainted and others who went into hysterics. And Scene Fact: The scene where Regan projectile vomits at Father Karras only required one take. The vomit was intended to hit Jason Miller in the chest, but the plastic tubing misfired, hitting him in the face. His reaction of shock and disgust while wiping away the vomit is genuine, and Miller admitted in an interview that he was very angered by this mistake.

Friedkin pulled a lot of nasty stunts on set, like severely injuring Ellen Burstyn's spine and filming her pained reaction, and smacking the actor playing Father Dyer across the face and filming his reaction.

Linda Blair’s character, when possessed, was voiced by the late actress Mercedes McCambridge (not originally credited) as Linda Blair was only 12 when she did this film so they didn’t want to allow her to use the language.
