Notes et avis

Honestly the film had a lot of interesting parts. It had some things that could've been scary but it just didn't quite have the same mood as the original. But its not a bad film; minus some lack of acting abilities it was good. When I read a negative review I feel its because this film wasn't scary enough or like the original.

Between this film and Dominion, this film felt like a true prequel to The Exorcist. Harlin may have went for too much "shock horror", but you cannot deny the connections this film makes with the original film. I think that if you watch this first and then The Exorcist, you will see how this film is better than most people give it.

Not scary. CGI looks like it came from a SYFY channel made movie. Very unrealistic graphics, and no sense of any horror atmosphere what so ever.
