For the second half of Movie Illiterate's double feature, Tom and Lauren look into the 1973 classic, The Exorcist! Based on the novel by William Peter Blatty, Lauren is familiar with many of the pop culture references that came from this movie, but has never seen the original source material. Tom has seen this version more than any of the others in the franchise. So grab your crucifix, tie yourself to your bed, and cuddle up with bowl of pea soup as Tom and Lauren discuss this week's episode, The Exorcist.
