Surprisingly Good

+ Pretty Creepy
+ Truly terrifying.

This is the kind of horror film I love. The characters are well-rounded, with real dialogue and (usually) logical actions.

This movie was way better than I thought it would be, and I thought Justin Long put in a ...

It established the post-apocalyptic fear of ...
  
  











  



  
The Exorcist (The Version You've Never Seen)
Jason Miller, Ellen Burstyn

Warner Home Video, 2000

An absolute classic! Still holds up strikingly well.

+ Loving it!

It's difficult to look back on a film "classic" and try to review it through today's eyes...35 years later.
