Is horror your favorite movie genre? There are so many horror titles in the market that are great thrillers. Hollywood has really pushed us to the edge by delivering nerve cracking horror titles at their best. To those who love a shot of daily dread, lets us look at The Exorcist, a horrific movie that has shone over years.
The American horror movie released in 1973 was an adaptation from Peter Blatty novel that had been released in 1971 by the same title. The novel traces its roots from a case in which Ronald Doe was exhorted of a demon in 1949. The film builds its story around a mother who tries all she can to bring her teen daughter back to normalcy after being possessed by a demon with assistance from two priests who perform the exorcism.
The movie was released in December 1973 by Warner Bros and went on to earn ten academy award nominations. It indeed won the best sound mixing and best adapted screenplay categories. It was named the scariest film of all time in United Kingdom and USA.
The film starts where a catholic priest who goes by the name Lankester Merrin who is seen excavating an archeological site in Iraq. He stumbles across an amulet that resembles a statute of a demon called Pazuzu. He had defeated the demon and banished him a few years back. He gets to know that the demon has come back to avenge his banishing.
At the same time, a famous actress by the name Chris Mac Neil is seen in her Washington D. C home playing Ouija board with his pre-teen daughter who goes by the name Regan. Soon after playing the keyboard, Regan begins strange actions, and makes mysterious noises in the room. She also uses foul language and exhibits abnormal strength. She goes on to cause her bed to shake, much to the dismay of her family.
Chris tries to help her daughter by taking her to the hospital. The doctors perform a series of tests on Regan without detecting a problem. They are not aware that the demon has possessed her. As days go by Regan kills the babysitter, and the acting director called Burke Dennings at night. The police step in with a detective called Kinderman taking over the case. His first two interviewees are Regan mother and a priest called Karras. Karras had lost his faith in Christianity after the mother died.
Doctors conclude that Regan is demon possessed and can only be cured by exorcism. This new information prompts Chris to seek help from the backsliden priest, Karras. Karras at first refuses to perform exorcism but later changes mind when he finds writing on Regans stomach asking for help and listens to a recording where she talks in reverse. Merrin, the priest joins in.
The two priests are unable to exorcise the demon. It mocks them in the process even abusing Karras dead mother. Karras leaves after sometime. Merrin is left to deal with the demon. However, after some time Karras comes in only to find Merrin dead. He pleads with the demon to leave Regan and enter him instead. He sacrifices his life by jumping over a window and dying out of head injuries. This banishes Pazuzu from earth. Regan feels better after sometime and returns home. Kinderman, befriends her to help unveil why Karras died. This is a real thriller.
