I already had the "Version you've never seen" but wanted the original film from 1973. This is it and it doesn't disappoint. The Exorcist is very well known for spinning heads and green slime but beyond that there is quite a good movie exploring multiple themes - evil and why evil, the limitations of science/medicine's ability to explain everything and the unwillingness of scientists/doctors to admit to this, faith lost (and perhaps found again), etc. This deserves its place as one of the best horror films of all time. As an aside, the extra features are enjoyable, too.

The Exorcist is the de facto classic horror film. There is a reason this film more than most any other is cited as one of the greatest and scariest horror films of all time. This psychological thriller will have you questioning your deepest self and your faith in God but knowing good will eventually triumph will allow you to truly enjoy this movie. Relax, turn off the lights (if you dare) and enjoy a true classic!

Everyone has heard of The Exorcist. Linda Blair's head spinning around spewing pea soup is something everyone has seen - in this movie, a spoof, a clip etc. But younger generations are wary of older horror films. The special effects are not as good as today, the casts are not models turned actresses and what was original back then has been remade and repackaged for the Dawson's Creek crowd. Girl is possessed, priest performs exorcism. Simple? Well, this is also about faith lost and found, innocence, the eternal battle of good and evil...and pea soup, alright I could not help myself! While this film may not appeal for casual horror watchers, this is a classic that should be watched by real fans. Both fans of horror and films in general.
Original theatrical release, video is great, packaging is terrific, but sound is really low.

This has to be the most frighting movie of all time & a great documentary with it. The performances are flawless and so is the directing & special effects. I recommend this movie for any horror movie fan, there are graphic scenes naturally, but the acting, screen play & book are classic.
