The atmosphere of this movie is amazing. The hospital scenes alone, before the truly nasty things happen, are terrifying enough. You can really feel her discomfort and pain during all those tests. And after that we get all those supernatural things happening in the old, spooky looking house. And what a bunch of nice scenes! We get a beautiful head spinning scene, a scene where Megan stabs a cross in her vagina and in the director’s cut edition, we get the hair pulling spiderwalk scene.
This is my 2nd favorite horror film, (behind “Halloween” (1978))
I saw this back in 1984, when I was 8 years old. it, literally, scared the fucking piss out of me. There aren’t enough good things to say about. It is the scariest film I’ve ever seen, to this day.
I’m guessing the scene you didn’t show, was the crucifix scene.
when i first saw this movie i two nightmares of me being inside the same house as the girl with her not being strapped to the bed, im never going to watch the exorcist again
I watched this movie, and I havve to admit…. It’s one of the BEST horror’s I’ve seen to date.
Unfortunatly, I wasn’t too scared from it, probably because it seems a bit out-dated for me. Also, yes, I’m a newer generation, I’m 12. So now that I got that out of the way…
The effects were amazing, if I was watching that movie during that time period, I think I’d be scarred. Linda Blair’s make up was truly amazing but I don’t see where it gets really graphic…? Except for the scene where she’s masturbating with the cross, that, I can live without.
Well, that’s my view on it.
I got to say this movie was FANTASTIC. I’m a teenager and i got to say it didn’t scare the shit out of me. the only way it can be scary is if you start watching horror movies. but the exorcist II: the heretic in one word SHITTY. anyways good review
just saw the movie and i didnt think it was scary it was still a really good movie but am 12 and this movie scres peopl in there 40 s i like the bit at the end where the preist gets the demon into himself and gets throhn out the window
Unfortunately, I’ve neglected your Monster Madness series up until now. Just wanted to say that this video on “The Exorcist” is right on the money. The face of the devil that flashes across the screen for fractions of a second several times during the film pops into my dreams to this day and it snaps me awake every single time.
If you havent seen his movie, you havent lived,.. go watch it, or go kill yourself straight away.
To me its not the scariest movie ever made, but the intensity of the atmosphere thats build up during the film is something on its own. I cant think of any other film that draws you in with this kind of horror and suspense, truly unforgettable.
I rented this movie when I was 12, watched half of it, rewound it, took it back to the video store, didn’t sleep for two weeks, rented it again, watched the second half of it, and didn’t sleep for a month.
Depends on the person who watches the horrormovies. I don’t have a scariest horrormovie , because I’m used to it , but I can remember that the Grudge was very scary for me(was one of my first horrors) . But now , unfortunately I think that the movie is quite funny. Also the Fly , the ring and Poltergeist.
Remembering the first bit i could grasp on The Exorcist back then (i never would have had the chance to watch it with my parents’ consent) reminds me of the first time through the whole Silent Hill (PSX): Horrifying as hell itself.

To this day i have not managed to watch through the whole movie. Way too scary for me and I am not even religious.
