It's funny how this franchise is called "The Exorcist" but the whole part of the movies is about the "possession" and not about the exorcist himself. That's what makes the first movie great and original.
Yeah, and even though Exorcist III should be called Legion, it was still about Karras and it was interesting because of that
There’s two more parts after this one. Maybe that’ll all be in the next one
Exactly.
The father is the exorcist you dip shist
William Friedkin...
"... the guy who made these new ‘Halloween’ is about to make one to my movie, “The Exorcist.” That’s right, my signature film is about to be extended by the man who made “Pineapple Express.” I don’t want to be around when that happens. But if there’s a spirit world, and I come back, I plan to possess David Gordon Green and make his life a living hell.”
I saw somebody say that Gordon Green applied the same mindset as he did to his Halloween trilogy to this, despite them being entirely differently subgenres of horror. The original Exorcist works because of the psychological and emotional aspects of the story, not because of the jumpscares and “lol posessed girls are creepy”
I liked the original because it focused on a story and stayed on task.
I remember Chris Stuckmann and his friend, The Flick Pick said that for the first Halloween sequel, in understanding Jamie Lee Curtis and Michael Myers emotion, the studio picked the right guy to handle that. For everything else, they picked the wrong guy
Let me just defend the slasher sub genre and say it’s not as simple as boo jump scares and there are plenty of psychological things happening as well, dating back to Psycho, Peeping Tom, and the original Halloween.
DGG isn’t Mr. Slasher - we didn’t like a lot of what he did either lol
There’s like one jump scare in this movie lol calm the fuck down.
Right this was about a ritual but in order to do the ritual you have to believe…… I wanna see a part too this movie was deeper and went over a lot of ppls heads with the root work and voodoo and the Catholic Church all coming together to do a ritual to bring the demons on the earth it’s a catch 20/20 cus all of the ppl knew except the black father but his belief kept his daughter alive…. Even though everyone else was doing a ritual to summon the demon….. when the priest was trying to get the Catholic Church involved he said we need to do this ritual not this exorcism….. and the black girl was pure so they white girl used her energy I believe she was trained in the church to find a victim thus the church was all in it the pastor was mad when the black girl survived
Glad to see Ellen Burstyn taking a crappy situation and turning it into a plus by creating a scholarship. Good on her for looking out for the next generation.
A crappy situation?
She's part of the Actors Studio community who's currently teaching acting program at Pace University in New York. Burstyn is the president of the community and a long time member
Let me guess, another handout for a HBCU? 🤣🤣
"Not quite as bad as all the other garbage I've seen in horror."
A glowing review!
@@TheJaker5 that’s the problem, it’s just dull and does nothing new
So i guess bad movies came to good intention for Ellen Burstyn huh? It's pretty cool to hear that she used her salary to fund a scholarship, good for her. Imagine having the legendary Triple Crown of Acting winner Ellen Burstyn as your acting teacher in a university, that'd be freaking awesome
What a great way for a celebrity to give back.
In an interview she said she wanted something good to come out of her huge salary. In her many interviews over a long, distinguished career she's always seemed like such a nice lady.
The moment i knew Blumhouse, David Gordon Green, and Danny McBride are involved in this movie following their disastrous Halloween trilogy, i absolutely lost hope. Hollywood should stop giving Green horror franchises to ruin. If he wants to make a horror movie then make his own original material rather than rehash old stuff and just squanders it like that. Or don't make horror, Green is at best in the drama genre
Something kept nagging me as to why I was not all that interested in the movie until I looked into it again a couple weeks back and was reminded once I saw the creative team. Unlike so many that had to wait for the second part, I was burned on the first Halloween. So when it comes to this, I'll not waste my money and likely time by skipping it outright.
Exactly. Like clearly these guys have ideas and that's fine but don't take a dump on famous IP. If you wanna make horror movies, make something yourself and put your ideas on that so people don't have to keep going: "is this a joke?"
Touching classics IMO is foolish. The effects from the trailer looked hilarious. They made the girls look like they had down syndrome or hydrocephalus....it was laughable. That's why the first movie worked the effects were simple and ghoulish
@@gorillamac I know, I thought Green's Halloween was trash, and the 2nd and 3rd one just kept getting worse.
The first two movies were good, though I understand why people disliked them. However, the third and last entry was absolute garbage and a big dissapointment, therefore when I heared Blumhouse acquire the rights to make a new Exorcist movie, I had my concerns...and looks like I was right.
$400m for the rights. Not to create the movies, just the rights. But they didn't want to pay writers or actors. Wow. Just wow.
Maybe not enough money left ha
The Exorcist TV show was criminally underrated
There’s a TV show?! So I’m guessing it’s worth watching? I need some good horror! Talk To Me was absolutely beautiful, so my standard is there and unfortunately I was sooo disappointed with this movie 😔 I was hoping for so much more.
I h honestly had no idea they ever made a tv series based on Exorcist . I might try to hunt it down and watch it
@@demmigarcia1453 yes and there's an amazing twist in one of the episodes ..4 or 5 I think
@@demmigarcia1453 Season 1 was fantastic, great tie in to the original film as well. 2nd season, not so much
If you want a great Exorcist sequel, Exorcist 3 is the way to go. It needs more love!
Mike Flanagan? James Wan? Robert Eggers? Ari Aster? Jason Blum: Naaah give me David Gordon Green!
Another big problem besides DGG, is Blumhouse and Jason "I'll give you 50 bucks for the movie, keep 20 to spare" Blum's thrifty mentality. He gave us very good new low budget movies and opportunities for new creators making new movies. He has a good business model for making a profit, especially in horror. But when he starts making franchises, and worse, of classic established series, his profit-first mentality doesn't work and it ends up being disrespectful to these beloved sagas...
I can't imagine Flanagan or Eggers tarnishing their reputations by directing a sequel to the Exorcist
The part that really bugs me is this (and I’ll admit it might be a nitpick). It’s the Chris MacNeil writing the book thing. Chris would NEVER do that. Chris went to the priests because she was TERRIFIED about what would happen once it got out that regan was culpable in the death of Burke dennings. Telling the story of what happened to regan is basically admitting that regan’s hands (though demonically forced) killed Burke dennings and that is something Chris would never do.
how do you know what was in the book, did you read the book ??
@@zigurdsgalvins2056 even if she didn’t, it wouldn’t be that hard to piece together. In the first Exorcist novel the thought of anyone finding out about Regan & Burke Dennings is the impetus to go to the priest and people finding out was her biggest fear. If Chris gave even a tiny clue as to the timeline of events it’s not that much of a stretch to think someone would piece it together.
The book thing is bad writing. Sorry.
@@stefanfilipovits21 you do realize that in the exorcist chris actually told father karras that regan murdered burke dennings when she was pleading to him for his help, check out the original again, youll see what im talking about, so whether she later put it in a book or not is irrelevant, since she previously admitted it.
@@zigurdsgalvins2056 she did that because she KNEW he couldn’t tell anyone as a matter of confession and to prove how dangerous what was going on with Regan was. She also says they’d “put Regan away” for what she did. The truth about Burke dennings TERRIFIED Chris, I just don’t buy that she’d do anything to even tangentially put Rags on the hook for that.
Excellent point
I knew he was gonna ruin it, I knew it. When I heard he was going to be behind it, I was like boooooooo it's about to be terrible.
This movie was terrible! Too much CGI and the plot was awful. I grew up on the original and THAT was scary enough! This was garbage! I agree with you!
All I can say is Ellen Burstyn looks great for 90. Can’t believe this is her 23 years after Requiem.
Yeah dude, it's crazy
A24 should of handled this. But I think A24 knew better
I agree. Whether an A24 exorcist movie would have worked or not, it would at least have been more interesting and less lazy than what we got from this movie.
I've only seen the trailer. But that scene where one of the girls is walking down the church aisle, repeating "The body and the blood" ad nauseum? That's so laughably terrible.
What genius studio exec would give David Gordon Green another big horror IP to ruin?!
Well the Halloween trilogy he made made a very nice profit so that’s probably why they gave him this one. I can’t imagine him making two more though - there isn’t enough material there
This franchise needs an exorcist.
😂😂
😂😊
The fate of Katherine was actually very disturbing...
David went from being a pretty interesting indie movie director to a complete hack.
Think I wanna go back and watch "Joe" to remind myself I did like his style once.
George Washington, Joe, Eastbound and Down and The Righteous Gemstones are all excellent. He needs to recognize what he's good at - it definitely isn't horror franchises.
Way to discount his work.
@@derkeheath5172 Even if he wants to do horor, he should just make his own original material rather than dealing with a huge IP like this. I'd be fine if he takes his own idea and just squanders it but taking a huge iconic movie and make a sequel and just squanders it like that, it makes me upset
@rorschach36except that “Your Highness” was great
I feel like the behind the scenes stories for this one will be more interesting than the movie itself. The rumors are that this was a nightmare of a production.
WE’LL FIX IT IN POST!
After the 'evil doctor' twist in Halloween '18, 'evil dies tonight', and now Exorcist: Believer, if they let David Gordon Green make another horror film, I will accept it as proof that we are, in fact, living in the darkest timeline.
You just now realizing that we are in the dark universe 😂
Jeff only has one arm. 🦾
@@mylessmith8059 lol
Oh man I remember when I first watched Halloween 2018 and the evil doctor twist came on and when the doctor puts on Michaels mask - I just put my hands on my face and shook my head. I was so close to just turning it off right then. All in all though, Halloween 2018 is not bad but just average - the two sequels were awful though lol
It's a deeply cynical move on Universal's part, and Blumhouse's too in some respects. It says, "It's a known brand, it's October, and people will go regardless of the movie's actual merits or lack thereof. They are suckers." We'll see on Monday if they are in fact so easily led. I'm dreading being proven right. Heck, The Nun 2 is still doing business, so cynical may be the only strategy you need.
Crazy how they thought this shit movie would succeed but thought fnaf would bomb
The Nun(2018) was an incredibly atmospheric and perfect horror film, it was a huge hit
I mean, the film’s tanking next weekend anyways as theaters are going to need as many auditoriums as they can to handle the demand for Swift.
The original and Exorcist 3 are the only ones we should acknowledge exist lol
The Beginning was almost good. Got real corny at the end and ruined it
@@darktower0603 the fuckin cgi was atrocious😭
I went into this movie completely blind. I avoid horror movie spoilers of any kind. Had no idea who worked on. About half way through the movie, I leaned over to my husband and whispered “this is giving me evil dies tonight vibes”. Please stop letting this guy destroy classic movies. This so damn bad.
Let’s put David Gordon Green on a time-out.
Apparently Universal HAD to promise a trilogy in order to secure the rights, and they had to get Peacock to agree to do the sequels if need be in order to promise that the sequels would be made one way or another (considering Peacock’s involvement in the deal and the fact that this was before the streaming bubble began to burst, $400 million is not all that shocking (if still ridiculous)).
@@forsaken841I would also like to point out that this deal was made before Halloween Kills came out, so DGG’s career wasn’t tainted at that point.
Destroying good old things seem to be a Big Trend now.
I disagree sometimes reboots and rumors are good for a franchise
Bad sequels a new trend, pfft.
1:30. Ellen turned it down 3x. When they came to her yet again, she came up with the highest asking price she could think of...and doubled it.
They agreed to her offer.
She donated the movie to a performing arts scholarship. She said she wanted to guarantee something good would come out of this.
She truly seems like a lovely lady.🤗
"Your Highness" (2011) was an early warning: David Gordon Green makes horrible movies.
But Green has made some good movies too like Joe, Snow Angels, Prince Avalanche, Stronger. He should just make drama movies instead of horror movies like this
He's good at TV comedy direction too: Eastbound and Down, Vice Principles, and The Righteous Gemstones.
What could be more scarier is Taylor Swift, potentially destroying this movie's second week numbers.
Taylor Swift will likely blow out this movie.
"Admirable serviceable" was a very kind description of Bursten's performance. 😂
The red flags were all over the trailer. No amount of deception or nostalgia bait in the trailer could fool anyone with an IQ larger than their shoe size that this movie would be awful.
There have been so many Exorcist movies which most of them attempted to make a direct sequel to the original to the point i lost count how many Exorcist movies that we have so i just concluded that the only Exorcist movie that is canon is just the original and the third movie which the latter is extremely underrated
The Exorcist-William Friedkin,William Peter Blatty
The Exorcist II:The Heretic-John Boorman
The Exorcist III-William Peter Blatty
Dominion:Prequel to the Exorcist-Paul Schrader
Exorcist;The Beginning-Renny Harlin
The Ninth Configuration-William Peter Blatty(Honorable Mention-Definitely a "part"of the Exorcist Trilogy:)
The only major problem I have with Exorcist 3 is that they felt the need to shoehorn an exorcism into it (the novel, Legion, didn't have one). Sounds like that's the biggest problem with this one too.
@@derkeheath5172As back as I can remember, that was studio interference from Morgan Creek who wanted the exorcism scene at the end, not Blatty. Blatty never wanted that to end the movie
@@Fl0k5serSpot On Correct.
@@ryangettig274Blatty is a smart writer and why the first and third worked. Also, the reason the Ninth Configuration is likely fevered. Friedkin was psychotic, but knew how to direct.
The exorcist tv show was actually pretty good! Kinda an odd ball series but yeah!
Great twist in that!
Yup. It was much better than it should have been. I really enjoyed it. I'll be staying well away from Believer tho.
Hell yeah! There's a pretty wild reveal that happens in the middle of season 1 that I still think about to this day.
I loved the tv show!
I liked it, shame that it was cancelled after two seasons
I would only be on board for the sequels if they give the reigns to the franchise to Leigh Whannell after how well he updated The Invisible Man.
I didn’t expect it to come anywhere near the original, but I expected it to be a competent possession movie. I found that it just had a lot missteps. First of all, there’s something about the characters that I just did not find engaging or likable, especially the father. The only character actually liked was the nun. Second, the movie was middling and unfocused.

Glad I wasn't the only one who thought that Olivia Marcum looked like a young Linda Blair. If the writers paid so much money for Ellen Burstyn's character, they should've at least given her more screen time in the film, instead of her just being a cameo.
It was an insult to both Friedkin and Blatty and the legacy name they hung on the door.
This kind of filmmaking used to just annoy me, but now it's starting to make me mad.
The trailer for this movie was the most generic horror crap I've ever seen. When they trotted out Ellen Burstyn looking bored, I knew exactly what a cash-grab affair this thing was. I'm staying away, as I imagine most people will.
Office Space Roommate: two exorcism chicks at the same time
I cannot stress enough how spot on Dan is with his review. I just got out of the theater and this movie is a parody level movie that takes itself seriously. IMHO 😅
I watched it today too and I almost fell asleep. I was literally fighting to keep my eyes open.
I heard from a friend it was lacky at most. I stayed home and Netflix- chilled "Nowhere" flick. Very good movie.
Honestly, I liked 10 seconds of the earthquake, the general effort of the girls, and Regan hugging Chris. Everything else was garbage. 1.5/10 or half-star.

@@Oneanddone14IMDB 5.2/10
@@maryannsavage3724 LMFAO! I fell asleep too! My partner was out playing video games in the arcade area!😆😆
Can't wait for Green's take on the Omen series.😂
WAIT! Dan, you’re right about the horror nights thing! Back in 2016, it was the highest rated haunted house by guests and brought in a ton of the religious Hispanic community in LA. They’ve brought it back in 2021 because it was so successful, and opened haunted houses in LA and Orlando this year based off believer before it even came out (both haunted houses are getting great reviews, believe it or not)!
The movie was in the wrong hands basically. This director is… questionable and he instantly puts me off any movie that he is involved with. I really wanted this to be good.
I'd rather "the biggest risk" a studio takes be something like Malignant
The Exorcist dies tonight!
Morgan Creek really SHOULD have just tried to revive the 2016-2017 FX series. FX cancelling it after two seasons was a huge mistake. That show was how to follow-up a classic excellently.
Outside that, only the original 1973 film, Exorcist 3 (1990), and Dominion-Prequel To The Exorcist (2005) are worth seeing.
This movie is the Gen Z TikTok version of The Exorcist
Said by the Boomer wannabe
The Taylor Swift movie looks scarier than this Exorcist movie.
😂agreed🎉
Makes me wonder what the difference is between a typical IMAX experience and the Taylor Swift: Eras Tour IMAX experience.
I have six tickets for Imax Lincoln Square in NYC if anyone wanna join haha I might have over bought tickets 🎟️
Well to be honest the Taylor Swift cult is scarier than most horror movies
Yeah right lol 😂 somehow I high doubt that bruh lmfao 🤣 man
I drive trailers for a living and I can be on the road 28 out of 30 days in a month. Yesterday I had one day off and went to see this movie & I can say it was so bad I've decided not to go to movies again & just stick with my dvd collection.
Ann Dowd now has the distinction of being in one of the best possession movies of the past 20 years (HEREDITARY) and one of the worst (EXORCIST: BELIEVER).
I really liked The Exorcist TV series and was sad it was canceled.
"From the director of Pineapple Express and His Highness...."
All I needed to know.
If it wasn't for the success of Halloween 2018, Green would be directing Tubi movies.
So, they decided to destroy Chris MacNeil, the same way they destroyed Laurie Strode, eh? Do these guys have mommies issues? The character of Laurie Strode had the IQ, solid upbringing and resourcefulness to cope with her trauma and live a normal enough life - as in Halloween H2O but they decided to completely annihilate her - make freak out of her. The character of Chris MacNeil most certainly had the emotional resources to carry on without being destroyed too. This team has no idea what a compelling story is. They need to stick to brutalist, over the top humor. You couldn't pay me to watch this movie but I am interested in hearing reviews.
It’s a tragedy that the original writer and director of this movie (both dead - sadly) decided not to give us a real continuity to The Exorcist. The closest we have is Exorcist III which is pretty solid. Pleas skip the 2nd one and all those prequels. Apparently this franchise is really cursed.
The next film in the series will have Angela trying to contact Katherine's spirit and she gets re-possessed.
The second Ellen enters that room by herself w. The demon… yeah this is not gonna go well”
I’m honestly glad this thing is terrible. I want it to bomb at the box office, get that evil out of here
Lol
I love fans that are happy when movies fail...
Why did you want it to be bad?!?
Hopefully evil dies this weekend at the box office.
Or just don’t be a snowflake and don’t watch?
I thought the EXACT same thing about the "the smell got worse" line...i literally rolled my eyes at it. The movie was fine. It's pretty well made but it just shouldn't have been an exorcist sequel. It wasn't shocking like the original. Hell i thought they were gonna go overboard but they actually didn't do enough.
I hated the fact they could not decide on voices. Just use a couple voices similar to the original.
To me David Gordon Green and Danny McBride became David Benioff and D.B. Weiss of the horror genre.
They don't get a cent from me anymore.
Why McBride thought he could write a horror movie is beyond me . He’s great at comedy though
This is the first movie that compelled me to remember filmmakers specifically to AVOID them in the future.
Evil dies tonight! If Universal gave Green a remake of Frankenstein it would be from the viewpoint of the villagers with Guy with Torch the main protagonist, and Pitchfork Guy the second protagonist.
Id have given that 400 million dollars to Mike Flanagan to make a supernatural trilogy. At least they would be good movies.
After just watching Ellen Burstyn in the previews for this “movie,” I would say I haven’t seen anyone mail it in so much since Lincoln, Montana had a fine gent near the post office named Ted Kaczinski.
As soon I seen Green was involved that was a red flag after his Halloween abominations I will watch it out of curiousty.
The Exorcist was the second scariest movie I've ever seen. The only scarier movie I ever saw was The Wizard of Oz. Seriously, I found the Wicked Witch of the West TERRIFYING as a very young child, While my father took me to see many age-inappropriate films as a kid, The Exorcist was fortunately not one of them. I saw Exorcist II the Heretic on a late late movie when I was a teenager. That was truly awful. I liked Exorcist III quite a bit. I watched most of the first season of The Exorcist TV show with Geena Davis before dropping off. ***SPOILER WARNING*** After the big reveal that Geena Davis was actually playing Regan all grown up with a changed name to avoid publicity because her mom wrote a book about her exorcism, I really thought it was a shame her role wasn't played by Linda Blair. I suppose the reveal would have been less of a surprise, but it would have still been cooler. Sharon Glass played her mom in the TV show and was fine, but it would have been better with Ellen Burstyn.
Lol you too? That wicked witch really got me as well: the particular part in the tornado, morphing from the bicycle to the broomstick, and in black and white. That was soooo disturbing for my young mind.
The only time I've ever had a movie nightmare was about 50 years ago: Leonard Nimoys in search series: in search of Dracula. In it there was shown the few seconds of Max Shreks creeping shadow from the 1922 Nosferatu, years before I saw the movie. Just so creepy...
I'd like to say I loathe exorcist II, however a) had Richard Burton so still utter shite movie but it had Richard Burton. B) had some really good little ideas, but completely wasted. I mean the fact that the now recovered Regan has this automatic ability to heal. What a really, really interesting idea: that went absolutely nowhere. Shame there's not more of that kind of thoughts in these movies, just add more jumpscares, yeah: really thought provoking...
The studios are looking more and more like bad poker players. They don't have any good plan or cards, then say "let's try to fool everyone and go all in!" (400 millions for a dead franchise, 700 millions for a fantasy spin off that can't use any original stories ) only they used this move too many times and nobody is buying their trick. And they do it over and over because they have no clue on how to attract the public. It feels like the beginning of the end
I was so hyped for Halloween 2018 that I actually watched the film on Halloween night, with my costume on. I left so utterly disappointed that it almost ruined my night. I gave Halloween Kills a chance and I regreted it. Whatever David Gordon Green does, I'm just staying away. He does not get what made those original films so great, he just doesn't.
God, I enjoyed this. It's true to say that you shouldn't judge a film without seeing it but also, you know, fool me four times...
I'm done with supporting this kind of movie, where even the concept is lazy. The trailers did zero to distinguish the movie from (insert low budget Exorcism film at the bottom of the Prime Video barrel). And that "body and the blood" clip is laughable. The repetition horror trope should have ended with "you'll float too".
I rarely actively wish for failure when it comes to entertainment but somebody needs to learn a lesson here.
Why give him this after the last two Halloween movies?
Look what JJ Abrams to Star Trek and then they gave him Star Wars to run into the ground.
I guess a lot of it is - quoting Swan from Phantom of the Paradise - "I abhor perfection in anyone besides myself".
Easily one of my most favorite reviews ever 🤣. I am so happy this movie was made, solely because it allowed this review to exist.
@@TheJaker5 THANK YOU. I'm a 70's child and this movie was pure garbage. Nowhere near the original. I agree with you!
A film about a demon filled teenage girl,
Fearful of teenage girls coming to theaters...
I'm a big fan of the OG Exorcist story (movie and book), and I consider it to be deeply disturbing, yet intelligent, respectful and highly spiritual. This movie missed the mark because its a superficial cashgrab. A pity.
Remaking a classic is foolish. No one has ever been able to capture the atmosphere and style which made these movies great. Second, why not remake bad movies so that they are good instead of attempting to remake a beloved classic and ruining it?
Should have mentioned John Constantine in the movie and then bring back keanu's Constantine universe.
Dan, I appreciate your open disdain for these cynical money grabs exploiting iconic titles. Imo, Blumhouse/Universal and who ever takes future ownership of "The Exorcist" franchise should just rerelease the film every Halloween season. If they have to make new content to keep the franchise, maybe make an accompanying anthology of shorts related to the exorcist themes. Horror anthologies were really fun back in the day.
Just what no one asked for, a new Exorcist trilogy
I wish movie studios killed The Exorcist, Terminator, and Halloween franchises. They don't hold the same weight anymore. These films were flashes in a pan! You can't replicate lightning in a bottle, when you're trying to hurl bottles at clouds!
A Catholic, a Southern Baptist, a Charismatic, an Atheist and a Voodoo Priestess walk into an exorcism.....
Affirmative Action they call it.
Loved the Nute Gunray cameo!
Just saw it. All my friend and I could do was laugh through it. Just awful.
I hope they get someone who understands the meaning of the original Exorcist to Write it next... Someone like Mark Comode!!!
Absolutely despise when they do this to characters brought back for a legacy sequel! They're always washed up, alienated, depressed. Can't they have a relatively happy life after the events of the last movie? The characters went through so much, but guess what, they've been miserable for 20+ years.
And, the woman who deleted her baby is trying to do an exorcism. What a joke.
Let me guess, if this ends up making some profit, Green is going to make a new "Omen"-Trilogy next.
The Exorcist, The Shining, Poltergeist to name a few horror blockbusters. They worked because all of these directors were not horror movie directors but they all wanted to make at least one horror film. Not to mention they were class A directors. Something missing desperately in the horror genre. It’s a shame that the scariest horror movie of all time got raped for its name and used for let’s be honest for profit.
I couldn't have said it better myself. The Shinning and The Exorcist are my two favorite horror films of all time. Also being in my top ten favorite films of all time list as well. All though Tobe Hooper did direct Texas Chainsaw Massacre before Poltergeist.
@@danielneil237Except Dr Sleep was a good sequel.
A great director can work any genre. It's ridiculous to say they are not "horror directors". I am so sick of people who try to diminish horror like you just did and others who use buzzwords like "elevated horror". If it's a great horror movie, then it's a great movie in the horror genre. If a director makes a great horror movie than that director IS a great horror director. Plain and simple. The insulting pretentiousness of people who diminish horror movies has made those who have only directed horror movies fewer opportunities to direct in other genres.
I laughed so hard when the priest comes in bursting with his holy prayers near the end then he didn’t last long. Lol terrible filmmaking right there
What we each of us could do with $400 million. So sad & disappointing to have such a waste of money. Let's all go support the movie The Creator.
The TV series was so good. Too bad it was canceled.
What TV series? I didn't know there was even a series.
@@slimdude2011 It aired on Fox back in 2016-2017 for just 2 seasons. It's worth a watch for any horror fans IMO.
@@BiloxiBlues07 Thank you.
Dan said, "This time, a pair of teen girls are possessed by a demon." One of the BIG reasons the original Exorcist was so good was that it was based on a true story. A pair of teen girls being possessed is not. The Exorcist: Believer is not. Therefore, for that and other reasons, I'm not a "Believer" that this will come close to being as good as the original 1973 The Exorcist.
Not as bad as you say but definitely not great. The dialogue doesn’t get bad until the Exorcism imo. It wants to be too respectable of a movie until the ending when the Exorcism stuff starts going down. The Burstyn stuff is cringy as hell though. I really liked the girls though. Just not enough time with them because the movie is too preoccupied with trying to be a good movie at the same time. Should have just went ham with it as they do in a couple of scenes. Other than those scenes it didn’t really feel like an exorcist film at all.
watched this a few days ago, and it's a massive dissapointment
1:44 and later in the movie she says “we’ve met before”
No, the demon was Pazuzu in the original, and in the credits of this movie the demon is named lamashtu, so you can’t even justify her appearance on a her and the demon interact with each other again argument.
I live in Orlando and I go to the houses. I did the house watched the movie and did the house again. It changed how I saw it and it’s not a bad or good movie same with house, lines are long. If they included what happened in the house… in the movie… they would of had a different movie All together
i went to see this immediately after work with my sister to enjoy a SPOOKTOBER movie and we had a great time!
Dan , Thanks Much !.......
