"What an excellent day for an exorcism." We watched the mother of all horror movies "The Exorcist" with our dear friend Espie Quintero and the power of Christ is compelling us to sleep with the lights on! This movie has a reputation for being one of the scariest horror films ever made and for good reason. We go into just how dang REAL it all comes across. Something about that '70s style of filmmaking - this thing feels like a documentary in parts. The realism also extends to the subject matter and everyone's personal thoughts on ghosts, demons, the afterlife and religion in general. I mean leave it to the Catholics to still have a protocol for exorcising demons in the 20th century (and beyond most likely). Linda Blair was only 13 when she was nominated for an Oscar for her work here, but it's really Ellen Burstyn that owns this movie. Chris MacNeill (Burstyn) is a mother at her wits end when no one will help her clearly possessed daughter. Let's be real - a demon thrashing around a kid is scary but I defy you to stand in the way of a mother trying to protect her kid when no one else will. On top of all that we also get Ellen in some fierce '70s fashions - oversized aviator sunglasses anyone?
