Novelist William Peter Blatty based his best-seller on the last known Catholic-sanctioned exorcism in the United States. Blatty transformed the little boy in the 1949 incident into a little girl named Regan, played by 14-year-old Linda Blair. Suddenly prone to fits and bizarre behavior, Regan proves quite a handful for her actress-mother, Chris MacNeil (played by Ellen Burstyn, although Blatty reportedly based the character on his next-door neighbor Shirley MacLaine). When Regan gets completely out of hand, Chris calls in young priest Father Karras (Jason Miller), who becomes convinced that the girl is possessed by the Devil and that they must call in an exorcist: namely, Father Merrin (Max von Sydow). His foe proves to be no run-of-the-mill demon, and both the priest and the girl suffer numerous horrors during their struggles. The Exorcist received a theatrical rerelease in 2000, in a special edition that added 11 minutes of footage trimmed from the film's original release and digitally enhanced Chris Newman's Oscar-winning sound work.

Desde la actuación de linda blair como regan, desde los otros actores. Todos fueron buenisismos en sus papeles correspondientes y se encarnaron en ellos. Buen Plot de historia. Para el tiempo en que se filmó (osea en aquellos años). Esta película es una bella obra de arte del terror. Muy perturbadora en imágenes, no me imagino en aquellos tiempos.. La aconsejo, junto al Conjuro. Sin duda lo mejor del terror.

Not to bad at all, i just dunno what the scary part of this movie, i know that this movie was produced aroun 70s-80s and got so many review that makes me have a huge expectation but, this movie destroy all my expectations bcuz of it boring storyline but overall it still the legend

I watched this movie somewhere 1974 in time. I was in junior high school. I was and still impressed by the soundtrack . 8 years latter I managed to have the cassette, probably many of you has never got a chance to touch it :). The musician is Mike Oldfield and the title of the soundtrack is Tubular Bells.
