Review of The Exorcist III (1990) by Christopher B — 11 Feb 2007
Don't get me wrong, I love The Exorcist. I think it's truly a classic film, let alone horror film. But personally, I think this one is superior. Some really creepy and off kilter scenes and disturbing imagery, plus wonderful performances by Brad Douriff, Scott Wilson, Jason Miller and George C.
Scott (for the most part) elevate this as another great Blatty film. Ninth Configuration is one of my favourite films of all time, and this excellent movie feels like almost a companion piece. Philosophically far better than the previous 2 and in terms of story, this one easily has the best, far more dimensions than the simple possession storyline.
I just wish Blatty would direct another film already!
