Mike’s photo (captured from Fangoria) brings about an old topic of the non-bloody versus the bloody versions of the spiderwalk scene. Yes, it can be filmed both ways. However, I can’t put the article together to indicate that a bloody version was ever filmed. Even Mark Kermode’s post on here is very illusive and coy about a bloody version being filmed.
I’m still under the impression that the blood was CGI’d in TVYNS. Why? Well, would it make sense for Friedkin to forget that Blair should have a bloody face after the stair descent? In fact, the blood would be running from her mouth to her forehead and then drip down her chin. Look at Fangoria #197 (2000) / 1st Photo in 2nd Row / Blair’s Serpent Tongue here.
No blood. Am I missing something in this article. I hope so!
This, of course, is still a wonderful myth. But, it would be nice to see a real behind-the-scene’s photo of the bloody version being filmed. 🙂Father Bowdern
I am totally unconvinced that it was shot. In Mark Kermode’s book Friedkin says he forgot that they shot it. I find that hard to believe.
I think it was CGI all the way….
Cap … are you tempting us? Where is the rest of this article? I would love to see it! It would great to actually read something related to the spiderwalk scene other than the picture of Hager at the beginning of the stairway descent (non-bloody). 🙂
