Review of The Exorcist (1973) by Gavin P — 19 Jul 2013
It's only been 40 years since it's release, but I finally got around to watching The Exorcist! It was creepy & appropriately shocking in parts, but it took way too long to set up - I don't think Regan was possessed until over an hour in! And then you don't really see her that much and it's only the last 25min that the actual exorcism happens.
You can't really say it's "scary" now, but I'm sure in the 70s it would've been quite shocking. Good, but there's been much better since.
