- OSCAR WINNER:Best Screenplay AdaptationBest SoundNominated for 10 Academy Awards, including "Best Picture," The Exorcist was controversial and extremely popular from the moment it opened in 1973.This is the frightening and realistic tale of an innocent girl (Oscar-nominated Linda Blair) inhabited by a terrifying entity, her mother’s frantic resolve to save her (Ellen Burstyn in her own Oscar-nominated performance) and two priests - one doubt-ridden, the other a rock of faith - who come together in a battle of ultimate evil. To this day, The Exorcist leaves viewers breathless. The greatest supernatural thriller of all-time astonishes and unsettles like no other movie before or since.

I was more afraid of having a seizure rather than being afraid of the actual trailer
@Conline Frost well that is quite interesting
My thoughts exactly this trailer is ridiculous idk how anyone thinks it's well done it shows nothing but the same couple of still frames over and over with flashing lights. Enough to give some people a seizure. Terrible trailer for a great movie.

yeah i have a fcking head ache now

Te dije que no lo buscaras 😒

Perdón pero son puras patrañas no he vomitado 😾

Can anyone imagine seeing this trailer in a theater 50 dang years ago? It’s terrifying now!
I was there after Christmas day, waiting for 2 hours to see this movie and having no idea what this movie was about. I honestly had to cover my eyes. It was the scariest film experience in my entire life.
Oh shit I want to see pazuzu's face. Hail pazuzu
@@monsterpig3270 I loved it can't wait 4 the remake.
A girl on my block went to the movies with her family, and they showed this trailer. I heard they had to rush her out to the lobby she was so terrified, poor thing. It's one of the most intense trailers I've ever seen.
If you ask me, this trailer would've only worked 50 years ago. The movie itself is timeless and classic tho
For those of you wondering, the flashing white lights makes it possible that if you try to blink or close your eyes you would get a flash of the image. It is ingenious
it doesn’t work 😭
@@shortfilms5165try on a bright tv idk
@@shortfilms5165maybe it worked on big screen back there
I tried it, it sort of happened but not anything else
this is how trailers should be made: without spoiling you anything about the movie and capturing its feel and premise. nowadays trailers tells you how a movie starts and ends -_-
PSNPS496 true there's a modernize trailer of this movie that shows everything lol
PSNPS496 ikr lol
+KEENG LOUIE No, it was an original preview but it was later replaced by the other trailer. This teaser was included in the 25th anniversary vhs.
KEENG LOUIE
Absolutely not. This is the original, banned trailer
As I understand it, this trailer wasn't banned. It was replaced by a trailer more reflective of the actual movie. All that black and white strobe photography is certainly unsettling, but it doesn't appear in the movie. Also, the highly dissonant music doesn't appear in the movie - in fact, this music was commissioned, but the director was dissatisfied and didn't use it, choosing instead to buy the rights to the already recorded "Tubular Bells" from Mike Oldfield.
I would have fainted if i saw this in a movie theatre unsuspecting
I probably would have died instantly!
Pussies
some people who watched in 1973 literally passed out, cried and walked out of the cinema
People did
I'm sorry but literally what is scary about this
RIP William Friedkin. Only a film director like him can truly send you the most scariest movie with disturbing imagery and haunt you years later just by The Exorcist alone.
You are sincerely missed and we’ll truly miss you.
better not be edited this or the original source, the novel, for "modern sensitivities"
He pushed his actors too far tho.
So he died just two months prior the release of the new exorcist movies mmm suspicious
@@lucasvermeulen4454 thats prob why the movie was so good, he had to be hard on the actors to make it real as possible
@@prodbuds Breaking backs (literally) is not a way to make a good movie.
Around 50 years, and still no other horror movie has even matched the disturbing horror this movie inflicted upon the audiences ages and ages and still doing the same.
Greatest horror movie of all time. Hands down!!!
Texas Chainsaw massacre upset a lot of folk.
Psycho (1960): hold my axe
There’s a reason Anthony Perkins is the King of Horror
Jaws
Halloween
No wonder it was banned in most theatres in the 70s
yeah, probably caused seizures.
Robbie It wasn’t that, it was just too scary
Ddlala63 that wasn’t scary at all
No i don't think it was because it was so scary because it Wasn’t Even tough back Then movie's Werent AS Scary,But It might be because of seizures And People With Epilepsi,Thats Why i think,
Well it was said people were so scared that some people left the theater and it can cause seizures so maybe that too
Rip Epileptic people
Mejeheh
Why
Because fuck you thats why (sorry had to say it 😂)
Huehuehue
Right...💀
it's not scary but put yourself in 1972. The superstitious element was really what made audiences upset. Combined with the music and the vague scary images... can see why this freaked people out they'd never seen anything like this. It's still uncomfortable to watch lol.
Yea thats the only reason though grandmas scared of the devil so this film preyed on it
ong
Disclaimer to people with photosensitive epilepsy: The trailer contains flashing lights and images for at least 1 minute.
Good thing they'll scroll down to read your comment first!! /s
Why isn’t this more popular
It's not a fishing pattern that would trigger epilepsy. The flashes would have to be much faster.
Audiences in 1973 were not at ALL prepared for this film. It's no wonder so many fainted im the lobby and threw up in the seats. One woman even had a heart attack.
Quentin Barrentine...The ushers weren't prepared either. I t was the biggest third shift cleaning crew I ever saw. The fans stayed on all night and still we couldn't get the stomach acid smell out the seats. It got in our uniforms. It got in our hair. NO ONE wanted washroom detail. We didn't have hooded suits then. Slowly we were issued latex gloves, smelling salts, and clip radios. This went on for well over a year once the theater owner found a loophole in the liability clause after so many people hit their heads against the armrest on the way to the floor. We couldn't touch them we were advised...just call the paramedics. After awhile, the city agreed to two ambulances parked outside full time on standby. It...was...that...bad.
@@shihanUKS Oh man you were an usher during this time? Massive respect to you for making it through that, that must've been ROUGH.
@@alphacraig2001 Oh yea.... What a time to be alive and see what movies were meant to do. Bring audiences together in sickness and in health. Mostly sickness though. Black people helping white people to the washroom before they let go. A white lady asking for ice chips for a black teen age girl who had fainted in the isle. None of that partisan race crap during those two hours. Everyone was horrified by the same thing. Then around January of 75, another novel... something called Jaws. It started all over again. I got a job in retail.
@@shihanUKS was jaws as bad??
@@Mcrclerk Jaws was different . Audiences clapped at the end. Humanity had won the battle. Audiences could sigh relief and hang their hats on it. But it could happen again if you went where it was...the water. And it was a tangible threat everyone understood...a shark. Not with "The Exorcist" which left audiences wide open. They sat there bleeding out. What the hell just happened? Redemption replaced by astonishment. The threat intangible but real. It could happen again and it could come for you anytime...anywhere. Not a shark. But the remorseless evil the shark implies. Which could be you or in you. Anytime. Anywhere hijacking the "Reagan" in all of us. Dread. Impending dread. This was Bits and pieces of nervous conversations in the lobby while assisting in wiping other peoples food and vomit off their suits. A great time to be alive .

U got that from Jessi I vee lol
I wasn’t scared of it but I felt like I was gonna throw up
@@arianatorkittenslover9404 bro we all did
This film gave me nightmares for years growing up until I finally faced the horror, and detached from it. Great horror film.
This preview ran during a charlie brown christmas special in 1973. Charlie Brown! Thats nerve, man. Im only ten and Im lookin at the lights blinking on the tree and suddenly there are black and white flashes all over the room with music that scratches a chaulkboard. That awful face... Black to white... White to black... desecrating the cheerful reds , yellows, and blues of holiday cheer. ...and that priest shadowed in the driveway. I wasn't ten anymore.
+ReviewCam ...did it run on TV? It wasn't a run. It was a full frontal assault.
shihanUKS I was 9 when it came out and the damn newspaper ad scared the sh** outta me..
The newspaper had the full page poster-like ad showing the shadow of the priest. Couldn't look at it. Other ads had just a blowing curtain. That movie ran in downtown Chicago for two years at the state lake theater. Two years! Same theater. The mayor gave permission to the theater to have an ambulance parked around the corner on a regular basis.
shihanUKS Yes! That damn full page poster ad. lol it got me good!
Jajaja u are a good writter, brother. I enjoyed reading this. But i bet u didnt enjoy going through it.
I saw this movie on tv as a little kid and had lingering nightmares from it until I was about 27. Definitely a powerful piece of cinema.
Weak ass nigga.
Damien Knight lol cgi crap fest aren’t movies we watch do you know how many people died on set just to make this movie
@@damienknight6674 Says the person who wouldn't say that to his/her face. Lmao.
Its based of a true story
To this day it’s my go to scary movie - I was horrified as a kid seeing it when I was 8 back back in 85 and now as a 43 yr old man it still scares me - Nothing scares me the same way - last movie that disturbed me was Hereditary, but this movie was a head of it’s time
Fun Horror Fact: The narrator’s “In this house” line at 0:20 has been sampled in the trailer for a recent horror film called Skinamarink, which has the same sort of style as The Exorcist.
Oh my god! I was wondering why that trailer felt so distantly familiar! And that distant familiarity is exactly what that film was trying to convey.
MIND BLOWN!!! 🤯🤯🤯
Skinamarink is literally nothing like exorcist but ok
@@kiwisoup I was meaning by filmmaking techniques and their execution of disturbing themes, not by story or anything. I apologize for the confusion.
Pfffft. Not even. Don’t mention that crap movie along with the Exorcist. I actually had high hopes for Skinamarink and it was the worst “movie” of the year. Failed art film project.
This trailer is a work of art. I would not mind having it going full throttle as a decor for my dining area!
All subliminal, no dialogue, no nothing. No actual scenes from the movie per se. Brilliant.
it was terrible!
@@guistmagik2506 What was terrible? What are you on about?
I saw it when I was 5 years old. I had nightmares for years.
Way too young. How come?

I haven't watched the full thing yet but I am terrified after reading these comments
Five? Thats child abuse.
Same here my older sisters talked my grandmother into taking us to see it at the drive-in. It scared me something terrible! It took me years to recover. Lol

Also to Max Von Sydow.
@@pichongogorongo no he’s not he died in 2017.
I really wish they’d used this trailer, it perfectly sums up the film, saying nothing and everything pretty much perfectly. It doesn’t show much, but what it does tells you pretty much what you need to know: something horrible is happening, and it’s scary as all hell
only thing- people get seizures lol
@@c.m1786 and faint and cry and even throw up and litterally run out of the theatre screaming
@@tranzmitchi think the person you're replying to is talking about the flashing lights in the trailer. they can cause seizures for those with photosensitive epilepsy. there have been tv episodes and commercials that got banned because of flashing lights.
I remember my mother would go to the neighbors for 'bridge card' night once a week . I was about 13 and did not need a sitter. I was off my leash and would watch TV unsupervised. I will never forget watching "The Exorcist" on TV censored . But that did not matter it scared the hell out of me. I still remember to this day the censored line " Your Mother sews Socks that Smell ".Mercedes McCambridge . The voice from hell. She provided the demonic voice of the possessed child, and her performance is one of the key factors that makes the movie so terrifying. I will never forget her voice acting as I watched as a youth it is still as frightening 46 years later. This film it gets under my skin ."
The scariest part is how you can still briefly see the images even after they fade.
RIP William Friedkin, the legendary director of The Exorcist, single-handedly the most iconic and terrifying film ever made.
thanks to the novel from William Peter Blatty
That very trailer came on our living room t.v. set when I was 4 back in January 74. It was the first time I tasted fear.
@@justinscrivner5457 It still gives me anxiety all these years later. They played the commercials non stop. You would be watching Happy Days or Good Times and the commercial version of this trailer would come on. It scarred a generation for life.
Love seeing old original trailers like this. Doesn't show a thing yet creeps you out
Rest in peace William Friedkin. Your masterpiece will endure for another 50 years and beyond.
This movie may not be as scary, but it will always be the most notable horror movie in cinema history. It touched a subject others wouldnt dare touch and yet they did more than simply that, they went beyond that and at the time was seen as more of a reality than fiction. Even to this day, many are still facinated with how amazing this movie is and how it feels as if it can possibly happen to anyone. It also brought psychological fear, which few films successfuly could achieve. And still brings shivers down our spines and inspired the genre of supernatural horror. Although it is heavily over used, few films can manage to almost have that fear and feeling that this movie had, but none will be as good as the exorcist. This is why it still is the #1 horror film of all time.
Bob Ross 2.0 the fuck this movie IS scary as hell. there is no other movie that can make this with me. cheesy hollywood horror movie wil never be at this level of true terror
Yea, it was way before its time when It came out
I can understand calling it one of the most notable horror movies in cinema history, but calling it _the_ most notable is a tricky claim. Films like "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari", "Frankenstein", "Psycho", "Night of the Living Dead", "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre", "Halloween", or "The Shining" could just as easily be argued for that title.
Saddest part is this movie is based off a true story except instead of a boy they changed it and used a girl
Catterina Perriere Hollywood:Remake
This makes me sick it scarier than the movie
When the narrator said “in this house” I was like … wait a minute, I’ve heard that before! It was audio used in the Skinamarink trailer!!
What a coincidence!
Who's here from jessi vee expecting it was super scary but not
Im here
Yes
Yup
Literally me hahahaha
Yeah
.
Myyy brooooo....I thought i was the only one...I thought i have an issue or something cause this is just hard to watch....this made me poop
Thank you :)
This isn't scary, it's simply annoying and repetitive, I saw scarier stuff
Your nuts. This shit scared the crap out of me.
Because there are loads of these types of movies now! Back then there wasn't any movie like this, so when people watched it for the first time it was so terrifying that they cried, fainted or ran out of the room.
Yea man
I'm not surprised this was banned. This shit is creepy as all hell. I tell you, that face disturbs me still and this is my favorite horror movie.
Julie A It’s scary when shown once, in the dream sequence in the film. This is overkill. And when they added the face to the stove in the Director’s Cut, I just about died laughing!
For all those commenting saying this is not scary and acting like they're tough and shit, kindly know that people back then (in 1973 when it was released) are not saturated with scary stuff like we are now. Society now is so used to violence and less believing in the paranormal stuff.
I'm still scared of it, tho. 😰
The context is important, horror films that really pushed the limits from the Slasher flicks of Halloween, to Evil Dead, to the modern day gore films of saw and hostel as made it so that films like these seems like child play on the surface. The Exorcist relies on pacing and atmosphere to make you scared. People who say ignorant things like “I watched this movie and was laughing, not scary at all” are just contrarians. They’ve simply heard that this is the scariest film ever made, and think they’re cool for not being spooked by a barrage of jump scares. Truth is this is one of the best horror films ever made, it’s not my personal favorite but I can’t deny the influence and impact this film had to the Horror Genre. It’s a masterpiece.
That sounds like society all kinds of backwards. This movie tells a true story that actually happened to a boy from Washington whose parents desperate for how to help him moved in w relatives in st Louis MO after the word Louis appeared as if being craved from under his skin. It was in the family's home and the former alexian brothers hospital that they performed his exorcism. The wing in the hospital where this occured was torn down as supernatural occurances continued until even after shut down and sealed off from use until it was decided that it was best to demolish it. The home still remqins tho current owners wish to be left alone.
Yup!!!!
They created it as an immersive sensory experience. It seeded the images deep in the psyche, extending the terror far beyond the theater.
Did u watched it on theatre
I think because I was raised Christian, sorta believe in this stuff and the fact this movie is so damn demonic is the reason it still scares me.
I’m a Christian and if you think about it the movie is really about faith in god and god will beat Satan . But yea the movie gives me creeps
But the demon wins at the end. The old priest fails to drive the demon out of Regan. It kills him.
This made me feel uneasy and creeped out. I can't imagine how scary this trailer was when people first saw this.
The Exorcist is a psychological thriller and for me as a 12 year old watching it for the first time in cinemas, it got in my mind and the images stayed with me for weeks. I believed what I was seeing because the entire cast believed it as well. I agree with a comment here, that this trailer was effective because they didn't give you much. RIP William Friedkin. Love To Live and Die in LA, another Friedkin film...
Whoa, I had never seen this trailer before, so simple and yet so brilliant. Every black & white still hits home with the sound to back it up.

They don’t make movies that disturb you like this anymore. It’s one of the reasons it’s a timeless classic.
now on modern movies the filmmakers don't want to kill certain bunch because they don't want to be labeled as racist or homophobic
I have a somewhat feeling either sentence in your comment completely contradicts the other in some way
ari aster does quite well capturing that feeling imo
Good horror movies were made back then and good horror movies are still made today. Yeah there's a lot of crap now but there was just as much crap back then. Let's not twist the facts.
@@kiwisoup thing is that crap back then flew under the radar mostly. However now Hollywood has much more light on the crappier movies. I'm not saying they're right or you're right but Ima jus be logical here
This 1973 masterpiece still terrorizes many people in 2021 😂

Without doubt a cinematic horror masterpiece, with its unsettling imagery, with a nerve shredding music score , it grinds at you spiritually with its diabolical and truly repulsive demonic possession of a young girl, it shocks and triggers an uneasy feeling within you and it smashes your emotions like an hammer to the head, without doubt the greatest Horror of all time

The fact that this film came out when it did, I love how everything was mechanical no computers and it’s almost a film made decades before it’s time! My dad saw this when he was in CA he said some people had to be helped out, some women were screaming he said it was so different he couldn’t stop watching at the end he said he liked it but will never watch it again.
RIP William Friedkin the Director of the Exorcist. He’s in the afterlife now with William Peter Blatty.
Which one gets to say "told you so"?
This is, hands down, without question, the most terrifying horror movie of not just the 70's, this is the most terrifying horror movie OF ALL TIME. People FAINTED in the theaters or run out screaming their lungs off without having even finished the movie. To say that this movie is scary would be the biggest understatement in history.
You'd think the director had met demons and had coffee with them to get to know what they were really like. The script, the acting, the special effect which were Beyond better than anything before and since, the mood, the music, the noises...those horrifying, pitiful, pathetic, terrifying utterances and grunts from the demon....there will never be another movie like it.
I know a lot of people can get scared easily but I think it’s interesting how scared people were of this film. I went to the Ouija Board Museum in Salem and the guy had told me that even the scene with Regan holding the ouija board made people terribly afraid and running out of theaters. The Exorcist is my absolute favorite movie and I put it on to help me sleep practically every night, I know now there’s people who get used to movies like this after watching it the first time and people now are used to horror movies like that but even my first time seeing it was just love at first sight
How in the fuck is this move scary
In the 1970s, yes it was the scariest movie ever made. Right now, I disagree, but I do think it's a classic and a horror masterpiece.
Definitely lying lol. It’s not even wcary
I've never seen this trailer. Brilliant. Love the still photos with both priests around the bed. Right from the get go of this your wondering; What the hell is going on!!! Great film.
I was 5 so I would have had no clue.
But I wonder what adults thought when they saw this commercial. The Suspiria commercial, It's Alve and this commercial all were darker than a commercial could EVER be allowed to be today.
Of course the other 2 were laughable compared to the Exorcist commercial, but when I was a kid and saw the skull face on the Suspiria commercial, I had a kid heart attack :)
Wow that’s a great trailer! You have to put yourself in the mindset of a movie goer in the 1970’s. No one has ever seen anything like this ever. What a great movie! One of my all time favorites.
When I heard the words “in this house”, It made me realize that Skinamarink used them for it’s trailer…..god it feels terrifying hearing that.

You're lying man this trailer was banned after a week, they didn't show this outside of the theatre and they didn't show trailers for movies on the tv in 1973. It's a cute little made up anecdote you have there but it simply isn't true.
Plus you know you're lying because you edited your original comment, it used to say that it played during a kids show or something like that.

Imagine if this trailer accidentally got shown to an audience of a kids movie back then..
jesus christ the flashing exposures and music makes this trailer absolutely terrifying. I can only imagine how it must've felt watching in a dark theater.
I saw a video of people's reaction as they left the theater during its first showing. A reporter asked people what they thought of the movie. One girl just sobbed, she couldn't speak. Another girl was teary eyed saying it terrified her. A husky looking macho guy looked as if he saw Satan himself and all he said with a shakey voice was "I have no words. That was crazy."

Wow. Ok so I am a horror freak and only came here because an insta post said it was scary. Literally nothing scares me. But this, this was truly disturbing.
...that means you are not a replica. The pods didn't get you today. Woe unto you when you lose your fear.
Watched this when I was a kid about seven years after it's release. Still makes me uneasy. Only other movie about exorcism that came close to causing the same feeling was The Exorcism of Emily Rose.
This trailer alone is more disturbing than nowadays horror movies.
Way more.
Nowadays horror cinema is comedy.
Wefere?
There's something about the horror aspect of this film that absolutely gets under your skin. It's extremely atmospheric & nightmare inducing. It doesn't rely on jump scares. There's something very much horrific & unsettling about it. Upon your first viewing of it, you get the feeling that you shouldn't be watching it. It's absolutely a great horror/dramma. The acting & directing are both incredible. Today's horror movies still aspire to come close to this. It's relentless in it's attempt to truly haunt you. The film itself is a timeless masterpiece & film making at it's absolute best.
Omg yes, especially that feeling that you shouldnt be watching it
@@madworld52 only a few movies in my life have caused me to feel that way. I must have been around 9 yrs old when I first watched this movie. It was during my preparation for my first communion & that same week I saw this movie, I had my first confession at our church. I was so traumatized, I hadn't slept in days. I told the priest everything. He was upset but supportive. Gave me some very good spiritual advice that really helped me. Just a few days later, that priest passed away. I'm 36 & I'm still feeling pretty messed up about that movie to this day.
I think what scared people about the trailer so much was the sense of unknown cause you could only slightly make out the scenes
I’m now dancing on the floor
This still holds up today. Can’t imagine seeing it back then
We all had to come back here after watching the trailer for the new film!
As a person who doesn’t get scared easily this scared the shit outa me

The Sound track is super cool
😄👍🏻✌🏻🇦🇺
Well done, video. You've cured my hiccups.
I believe people reacted to this movie the way they did because it was quite ahead of it's time for portraying the subject matter in a much more realistic way. I know that some of the scenes are not realistic (head turns 360 degrees, etc) but it was one of the first movies that handled it in a very visceral way. For the remainder of the decade horror movies really followed Friedken's lead by creating an experience that made you FEEL something and not just SEE it. I love 70s horror movies for that very reason. The effects used were to pressure the viewer into feeling what was happening on the screen. The 80s took the genre and went for the visual effects more so than its predecessors. Even though I love 80s horror I tired of the constant gore factor for gore's sake. I love each decade for what they offer but I will always have a soft spot for 70s horror movies. IMO, that is why movies like The Exorcist and Halloween still stand up to this very day and beyond.

scarem84604 It was the greatest PR piece for the Catholic Church ever. I prefer Rosemary’s Baby, where the devil wins-that’s far more realistic than an exorcist!
"The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" is another favorite of mine. The psycho family in the movie is so horrible and disturbing that it's so difficult to watch and has such a low budget look it feels like you are watching a documentary. Truly horrifying.
...thats accurate about Friedkin.
When this movie was released i wasnt born yet...a great master piece...still best of the best...Thanks to Willam Peter Blatty and Willam Friedkin
Flashing lights warning, yo. My epileptic brain scrambled for a sec before I had to look away😬
One of my all time favorite movies!
Mine too
+kratosjr78 Oooooh Yeah !!!!! Now we´re talking
Was this film re-released on IMAX? It would be interesting to see this trailer being showed again on theaters.
Tiger Robocop Putting this trailer on IMAX screens would be an evil thing to do. they'd probably have to show an epilepsy warning before the trailer
3D IMAX -_-
If i saw that in a movie theater i'd close my eyes and put my hands over my ears
Dammit now I think I wouldn't be able to sleep again😂
This movie doesn't scare me per se.. but it fucks with my psyche and stuff, I think of it as psychological horror/thriller.
"In this house"
