The Exorcist (1973)

Director - William Friedkin, Cinematography - Owen Roizman

"Especially important is the warning to avoid conversations with the demon. We may ask what is relevant but anything beyond that is dangerous. He is a liar. The demon is a liar. He will lie to confuse us. But he will also mix lies with the truth to attack us. The attack is psychological, Damien, and powerful. So don't listen to him. Remember that - do not listen."

The Exorcist (1973)

This is a Movie Health Community evaluation. It is intended to inform people of potential health hazards in movies and does not reflect the quality of the film itself. The information presented here has not been reviewed by any medical professionals.

The Exorcist has two scenes where lights flicker on and off. One brief moment shows a man’s face lit by a passing train, creating a severe but brief strobe effect.

There are a couple of brief moments where the camera is handheld, but most of the camera work in this film is either stationary or very smooth.

Flashing Lights: 4/10. Motion Sickness: 1/10.

TRIGGER WARNINGS: Violent demonic possession, excessive vomit, blood, a viscerally realistic medical procedure, a few jump scares, brief anti-Semitic speech, one homophobic slur.

NOTE: This is a repost of a previous evaluation. Our evaluations of The Exorcist: Believer and PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie will be available tomorrow on our Patreon page at Patreon.com/MovieHealth, and will both be available on our Facebook and Tumblr pages on Tuesday.

The Exorcist (1973)

The Exorcist has been endlessly parodied and referenced. As a kid, I remember seeing an action figure, complete with electronics and sounds that re-created one of the film’s most iconic scenes - the last thing you’d expect from an Academy Award-winner. Upon release, people complained the R-Rated film might be viewed by children, people fainted, and there were attempts to ban it. That was in  1973. Since then, has its power to terrorize diminished? No. Particularly if you examine the subject matter.

Actress Chris MacNeil (Ellen Burstyn) is worried about her 12-year-old daughter Regan (Lynda Blair). A series of unexplainable behavior pushes Chris to bring Regan to numerous specialists, none of whom can determine what is wrong with the young girl. Though not a woman of faith, Chris nonetheless turns to priest/psychiatrist Father Damien Karras (Jason Miller) to examine her.

This is a frightening film, but not in the typical sense of the word. It’s not about blood or the fear of death - though both are present. It’s about the sheer vulgarity and weirdness of these events. Regan’s transformation keeps surprising you until you believe without a doubt that there’s a genuine evil possessing her. It’s a force so maleficent you have a hard time believing it could be defeated by anyone, much less people whose faith is wavering at best. That makes it sound like these events are huge, the sort that will bring armies of damned souls through the floorboards and make gore rain from the sky but they aren't. The devilish thing about the sinister force in The Exorcist is that everything we see is carefully portrayed as plausibly deniable. The newspapers after the events of the film will not be “THE DEVIL IS REAL!” because what transpires does not match the traditional definition of an exorcism. What we witness is all so bizarre, so off-putting it would almost be comical if it wasn’t so demented.

It’s the kind of story that sticks with you, that you keep flipping over in your head and each time becomes a little bit more unsettling because it feels so real. Unlike other horror films, it’s not a disturbed burial ground, a new home, a puzzle box that’s been opened, or any other transgression that kicks off this plot… it’s nothing. Like a real-life, "ordinary" disease, what is happening to Regan comes out of nowhere and takes over as Chris is powerless to do anything about it. The idea that this little girl and her mother are being terrorized for no reason is deeply upsetting.

This film has many strengths, even if you ignore its ability to produce nightmares. The characters are well-developed and textured without spending too much time on them. Director William Friedkin knows when to focus on Chris and Regan, when to cut away from them, and exactly how much we need to know about Father Karras. You care and understand the people involved, which makes the torment they’re faced with that much more relatable.

The Exorcist contains spectacular special effects and the kind of visuals that have been imitated, but never quite duplicated because it did it first. The audacity with which it tackles its story, the script and screenplay, the performances, and the iconic images all combine to make a film that’s unforgettable. It’s got quotable lines, many moments that stick with you, and a theme that you would be happy to hum if it didn't bring guaranteed memories that will lead to sleepless nights. This is excellent filmmaking, a must-see. (On Blu-ray, June 2, 2017)
