The Exorcist 1973

I wasn't looking forward much to watching this film again but I wanted to refresh my memory. I'm so glad I did as it was like I'd never watched it before. I replaced my memory of a boring, slow, underwhelming, dated horror with a tension-building, shocking, classic horror that is the definitive film, The Exorcist. The small frightful interjections featuring Regan were expertly weaved with the slowly unravelling arc of the faithless priest until they exploded in a wonderful and satisfying finale that left me thinking 'have I seriously seen this film before?' as it left me with such a thrill that I can't imagine forgetting that kind of feeling after watching a film.
