The Exorcist Believer Is INSULTING 

I have to know if the script-approval from fum prevents the creator from mentioning cigarettes, tobacco, nicotine, etc. they all say “harmful substances” or something. It’s a product meant to replace smoking…right?

Mista GG finally cut his fuckin' hair! I can finally buy your merch!

Hi GG I saw the film before you and you are right it was pretty fuckin' boring, At least it wasn't as shit as the Exorcist sequel tho....

nah

Let's be honest if it doesn't have the e at the end it isn't pronounced like fume but like fuhm

No, exactly. That made no sense. I cannot imagine her becoming an expert on exorcisms.

They made the connection to the Exorcist 2 I guess..

It is funny...they used this plot point 4 years ago for the exorcist tv show....Reagan left her mother after the mother wrote the book and she dissappear. For the TV show she moved to Chicago.

@@ted9592the tv show was really fun in all honesty. Aside from exorcists 3 it was the best thing that they had in this series since the original

The patriarchy made her do it 😂🤷🏼‍♂️🤦‍♂️

@banquetoftheleviathan1404 Yeah, I mean, that was also disturbing in that movie too but at least Drag Me To Hell didn’t finish with the boyfriend saying “Oh well, life goes on and I’ll recover and there is beauty in recognizing faith” 💀💀💀 Also, its worth considering that its passable with Drag Me To Hell sonce thats meant to be a dark-comedy horror movie where Exorcist: Believer is trying had to be a straight up horror yet unintentionally becomes more laughable than Drag Me to Hell

I have a hunch that the girl could possibly be alive and in a coma. After all, we don't even come across a grave marker for Katherine. This could be a possible storyline for "Exorcist: Deceiver," where Regan might have a more substantial role in the upcoming sequels.

People be going to hell ever second and that doesn't stop the world from turning or smiling, this is reality mf

@@bartholomewmontgomery2494 Thanks buddy, you have a jolly day, too

@@bartholomewmontgomery2494 you’re bringing reality into a movie where demon children barf up mustard gas?

I think the devil should have taken whoever chose their daughter. In this case, the dad. Take him to hell & let the kids live.

Don't deal with the devil

Same. It’s sad. It’s something different, but it doesn’t really sound good when you really think about it.

@@anarules9280yeah this would have worked nice. Reminds me of drag me to hell. I loved how that ended. His face… 😮 I’ll never see this exorcist movie tho but just saying being dragged to hell CAN be done right. With the right writers and director.

@@rickard486calm down, god and the devil are works of fiction

I can just imagine Pazuzu enjoying his retirement, hearing that and giving Chris a call to say it's not him and that he is retired. But he totally has their back when it comes to annoying his rival so...go for it.

Chris just assumed it was the same demon that possessed Regan. One would think that, with all of the research she claimed she did, she'd know that there can be many demons and that they can use personal feelings and memories against people. But, nope! She just walks right on in, alone, tries to exorcise Katherine with no faith-based protection, and lets her guard down.

@@Shatterhand2049 To her, all demons look alike.

​@@n0m4nic so Chris is racist

Hey, That's Pazuzu's Wife.

It also annoyed me that we didn’t know anything else about what the girls actually went through whenever they initially became possessed. They could’ve showed SOMETHING. Also, why did they set it up initially to make it seem as if the other friend was involved too? At school, they had a 3rd friend that was in scenes with them.

Exactly! In two hours we learn that one girl misses her mother and the other goes to church. The next-door-neighbour gets more character development than any other, and even then it's just that she was almost a nun and is picky about tidiness. It's ludicrous to introduce more than a dozen new characters, give us no reason to like any of them, and expect us to care when anything happens to them

They didn't even cover what rituals they performed to get possessed. They didn't go through what happened to them while they were gone. What Demon was possessing them. This movie had many plot holes and didn't made much sense.

The makers of this "film" literally didn't understand a single thing about it. Just fully and absolutly missed the point by a mile.

yeah I hate it when horror movies like this always have the demons winning instead of the humans. thats why I think the conjuring is the best religious horror movie

@@camilo5740and that’s what the original ending the priest willingly sacrifice himself to pazuzu to save regan

It was done for SHOCK-VALUE. -_-

Hell in this movie operates on Smiling Friends rules: say "damn" once in your life, and eternal torment awaits you* *offer available as long as it's within budget; see the contract for more details

STRAIGHT UP! it left a weird taste in my mouth and a few minutes later i figured out why: it feels like the demon was punishing the parents for picking their daughter, punishing them for being selfish

Both men are rolling in their graves.

That little girl was not innocent ☠️ I said the same thing in the theater, except for that. That little girl wantedddddd a demon experience. She is as crazy as the teens from Talk to Me

​@@GiovanniCapo2000she was a little girl 😭 what she did was stupid but she wasn't really aware of how bad it could get, because she was a kid.

@@sweetcinnamonpnchkinI was gonna comment that Friedkin was still alive. Now I found out he died 2 months ago and I’m sad

When I heard that line I knew this was gonna end up crap. I was like "sure, the patriarchy, I'm sure it wasn't the years of study and experience it takes for a Catholic priest to be sent by the Vatican to perform an exorcism, it was definitely the patriarchy..."

i guess that's why she got poke in the eye trying to act smart exorcising the demon@@unknownname8591

That line gave me psychic damage man, I feel like some cells in my brain burned while registering that, I feel dumber after this movie.

@@unknownname8591 It's sort of perfect. Women revise their stories, over time. They must always be blameless.

That progression baby

So sad how many actresses in horror put up with so much misogyny! I hope Ellen got her retirement locked up!

​@@samburgermakesmovieswhat happened to her?

@@John-Doe-YoWelllllll sadly they are making two more movies with her

I was so upset when I found out she was in this

She wasn't willing at all. She turned down multiple offers.

Imagine if they did a sequel to believer and it takes like 10 to 20 years later where Kathrine’s brother (can’t remember if she had a brother) finds out what truly happened and goes to his dad now a older man and starts to beat the shit out of him

I mean... it's about as trivial as "believe in me or go to Hell."

I hate society, I hope I die and come back as a bird bcuz humanity has lost its fucking mind.

And they both died and that ungrateful bitch still acts as if they weren't CLEARLY right.

Gotta love woke bullshit in all forms of media no matter the context of said media

This line made me so mad. Like, gee, wasn't it because it would've been *horrific to see your child going through exorcism?* I'm convinced the only reason she said that line was to telegraph to the audience that, "See? See?? We have WOMEN doing the exorcism now!" When they could've just... showed & not told.

One of the dumbest lines in film history. Both priests sacrificed themselves for this girl and was Chris's last resort and only hope in saving Reagan. She sounds so selfish and cruel just dissing them when they friggin DIED for her and her daughter.

You know when you watch an old movie like the Thing with someone and they say somethin like “gee, why are there so few minorities or women in this movie” and you disagree with them and they just get mad at you for it? thats the kind of people that write those lines in movies

@@smartfella7914 Well hey, no, being off-put by a lack of diversity is a very valid thing. People wanna see themselves represented in a movie, and disagreeing with that makes them feel like you'd rather they just be quiet and watch the same 30-year old white man shoot people for 100 minutes. The reason why the whole "woman put down by the patriarchy in a movie" thing sucks so often is because it's entirely disingenuous writing done by a boardroom who don't actually care about what they're writing, and are just throwing hot topics at a wall and hoping they stick. It's using a very real problem and commodifying it to the point of it being meaningless. Pretending it's bad on the basis of "Well, it's political" is unfair movie criticism.

@@donlasagna479 Not reading all of that, hope you have a great day tomorrow

@@smartfella7914 come on, man, it's like 2 paragraphs, you're over the age of 13 and can read that much. But whatever, I guess.

Dog poo comment halarious

Lmao

😂😂😂😂😂

Christ, Jesus, haha

Remember that the original ending for the latest Indian Jones film was going erase him from the timeline.

Ironically one of the most polarizing but respected, Suspiria, was originally gonna be done as a more faithful remake by David Gordan Green with the director of Call Me By Your Name Luca Guadagnino producing, but because of funding Green's version was scrapped, Guadagnino took over and made it more of an homage to the original's themes, but a completely different beast. I can only imagine what Believer would be like if Guadagnino made it instead.

The pacing, styling casting and even some of the shots should indicate to the most simple viewer that yes, the writers and producers, and especially the legacy cast members homage and respect Friedkin's style for the first movie. But then some people, idiot critics and their followers who want a shout out, are idiots who cannot think of speak without parroting each other. No original thought at all, but you say you don't like sequels, or remakes? Hahaha. Just about every movie ever made is a remake of a novel or stage play.

@@cjmiller6741 They care more about the aesthetics of The Exorcist than the actual themes Blatty and Friedkin used. There is a reason why The Ninth Configuration, III/Legion, and to a lesser extent, Dominion are more popular than the other films in the franchise, and that's because they cared more about the themes than cheap horror.

@@Sayajin3321 well, the Ninth Configuration is not a horror movie, though it is based on a novel that takes place within the same universe as The Exorcist. But it is a re-written novel. It was written as Twinkle, Twinkle Killer Kane before Blatty wrote The Exorcist. Then he updated the novel after The Exorcist. Connected the astronaut to The Exorcist, and changed the name and republished it. And let me tell you that I have seen Believer a few times now and I think it recreates the style of the original movie better than any other sequel. To say that Ellen Burstyn and Linda Blair both came back is saying a lot about how much care was given to the project. If they felt otherwise, neither would jeopardize the legacy of the first film by continuing a narrative they felt was untrue to the experience. Besides, box office numbers don't lie. The movie is a hit. And the theme of the movie, as Friedkin would have is, was heavy on what would shake the audience. However, bad language in the first movie is observed in use on school yards all over the country. Obesity is no longer really shocking, so what would be the point. There are some viewers who will miss the over the top obscenity of the first movie, but in today's world, it would not serve a purpose, even to the devil. It would be much to vulgar a display of obesity. Perhaps the girls having to endure medical rape kits was not graphic enough to disturb viewers who didn't go to see a good movie, wanted the over the top vulgarity and outward perversity the demon displayed. But that was shocking in 1973. Today, audiences would laugh and side with the demon against organized religion. What throws most people is that this story is involving different faiths, but when you think about it, don't we communicate more openly about religion in social settings more than we used to, even among those who have different religions than us? The one thing I think was missing was the mysterious element, the medical and investigative angle, the research. That would have improved this pretty good movie for me. Blatty thought of it as a detective story. Kinderman was the first detective template who hide his astuteness under a slightly bubbly veneer. It was a genius, creative trope that had been copied many times since. But audiences already knows what possession is and what exorcism is. Most did not at the time of the novel's publication. So these stories are revealing new things, other ways of looking at faith, and interacting in a world of many faiths. But that is the world in which we now live. Curiously, churches are not out denouncing this movie in droves, or RU-vid critics would love it just to spite them, unless churches are owners of the sponsors that fund the crappy movie reviewers, whom can barely turn a phrase into a sentence.

I know you remember no mustache Mista, so we can stop acting like he don’t exist All jokes aside I’m glad he’s still doing what he loves doing

@@KoolerThanKenwe dont talk ab hairless mista 😂

Same

This style was entertaining as hell tbh

@@KoolerThanKencan’t forget about no glasses GG

You know how hard it is to stop a priest from touching a child?

​@@ChubbyDaSagebruh 😂

@@ChubbyDaSageguess they walked into that one lol

😂😂😂😂😂😂

And he failed the exorcism hahahaha That was the one good chuckle I had.

My only complaint about the video is that it was too short.

​@@LordMogatronMista GG could have 3hr long analysis of movies and games or whatever. And I would still not be bored of his content.

What if they take both lives then

@@andrewvillatoro4605 They probably wouldn't, but if they did then they would've probably done that anyways

@@bencarlson4300 true

I read that it was a double meaning too because Angela’s mom was blessed in the beginning of the movie, so the demon may not have been able to take her. Since they flash back to that scene…an interesting theory!

That's terrible though

And they believed a demon. Ya know the creatures known for LYING

As if a Hollywood movie was going to choose the white girl to survive lmao, zero suspense it was so obvious

I just hate how long it dragged on. Like it was obviously a trick but I think any loving parent would knee-jerk chose their own kid's well being if told "hey your choice is between *someone else's child* or your own." How they a) didn't figure out it was a trick and b) took THAT LONG for the idiot dad to "break" was nonsensical

😂😂😂

It's fine it caught my entire theater including myself

Ngl I jumped crazy bad at that too

Me too. If a startle is the worst scare a horror film can offer, it is a bad horror film

It was dead ass the only jumpscare that has got me in ages and its annoying cos its such a dumb one too. I think it was partially helped by the fact i couldnt see shit in that dark scene and thought he found a clue or something

Yeah and she didn't study or practice under the Catholic church, nor did she have training or faith. She just uh... Read some books I guess and cast her daughters name around like she was sainted by the church and got blinded

Lmao umm yeah it still is buddy

​​@@judehernandez8959 Honestly between the two, I think Beliver is the worst. Between the two, do you want a boring, safe, generic, bland, nothing-special, nothing different demon movie? Or you want a chaotic, batshit, acid trip that's so bad it's good, funny and memorable? If it's gonna suck, it better be worth it.

​@@judehernandez8959Nah, The Exorcist II is a masterpiece in comparison to Believer. Because while II made no sense, it at least tried. Believer on the other hand is lazy and uninspired, which is why it's the worst out the two.

Pt 2 is the worst

It's worse then this

A wild OneTopic appeared! 💕

Eyyyyy. You ever game with GG? I'd watch that stream.

Hey it's OT!

Yeah, then following it with a speech about hope felt tone deaf

Would it be too far fetched to think that theyll try to find a way to save her in the sequel, or send her to heaven at least?

Yeah, I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who felt that way. Then they the gull to end with the girl all happy going back to school.

@@Necromancer0225 My Headcanon is that Russell Crowe’s character from Pope’s Exorcist will drive his moped into Hell and singlehandedly save her soul

what i thought was that chris would pull her out cause she was reaching her hands out and everything so i thought because of the fact that she’s been through all of that stuff with ragean she’d be able to but no. worst ending

GG and The Exorcist is one of the best real life story arcs ever. It’s all of us. Young movie watching it for the first time and being scared, to loving it to where he sounds like a true fan of the franchise picking apart the sequels.

yea it was good how creepy they were

The lullaby of Broadway😂😂😂

Oh God.... that's started the flashbacks again.

I'll one up you on that. I didn't even know it was a thing till I saw this video in my subscriptions.

Same.

@@anonamarth4291 same lol

DC: well....looks like someone beat us

You deserve more likes. Along with anything you want in life.

"the infinity stones of religions"!!!!😂😂😂 priceless!!!😂😂😂

The trailers definitely promised a good movie 😫 but sadly nope it was a huge disappointment

Yes. Because that line is literally only there to bait reactions like that. And it worked. You are in fact, the entire circus

A stupid TV show?

​​​@@BlackangelKatakuri No. A phenomenal and underrated TV show. Probably the third best thing after the first and third films. If you haven't seen it, go watch it.

She’s not Linda Blair, but Geena Davis is no slouch. There was a time where she was a top star in Hollywood. She’s great in The Exorcist TV show. Personally though, my head canon is that only the events of the first & third movies happened. I like to think Chris went back to acting and Regan went on to live a good life with no memory of what happened. Sure she knew, but still had no memory. Meanwhile, Detective Kinderman and Father Morning save Karras’s soul and Kinderman retires after. Basically everyone lives happily ever after. After all, that is what happens at the end of each film up until this one.
