Via Neca comes the first video of their fully motorized ‘Regan Possessed’ figurine in action! The video is test footage of an unpainted model demonstrating the rotating head function while the ever-spooky Tubular Bells plays: NECA’s Possessed Regan will come in a Deluxe Boxed Set and will feature actual sounds …

Life member of The Exorcist Fansite Justin has put together a great comparison chart to demonstrate just how improved (and damn near-perfect) The Exorcist Blu-ray transfer appears to be. The chart compares screen captures of frames from the original 1997 DVD release, The Version You’ve Never Seen 2001 DVD and …

It’s an exciting time to be a fan of The Exorcist! Warner Brothers have just released the official trailer for the upcoming Blu-ray special edition release of The Exorcist, complete with glimpses of never before seen footage of little Linda Blair having her make-up applied by Dick Smith, hugging William Friedkin …

Comic-Con 2010 is currently under-way in San Diego and a few bloggers who are lucky enough to be there in person have trickled some neat Exorcist-related tidbits online. First, JJ Abrams sat on a panel today and discussed his upcoming projects (including horror film Super 8) and was asked about any cool pieces of …

A new interview with Linda Blair has emerged via HollywoodChicago.com who spoke with her at the Hollywood Celebrities & Memorabilia Show in March of this year. She spoke candidly of her life within the world of The Exorcist and beyond. Here are some exerts from the interview: That a lot of people don’t realize that …

William Peter Blatty has been busy promoting his newly-released book Dimiter, which you’ll find in your local bookstore now (or, if you’d like to support The Exorcist Fansite, buy it via Amazon.com here). Part of the promotion has included some great new and exclusive interviews. The first I want to share …

Re-published from my article at Reel Thinker. I thought it would be relevant to include it here. At first glance the poster for the Eli Roth-produced The Last Exorcism looks like it could be yet another instalment to The Exorcist franchise. Thankfully it’s not, but if you’ve seen the 1973 classic …

I don’t think anyone had an inkling, back when The Exorcist was first released, that the controversial subliminal images of Captain Howdy flashing up on the screen were actually the face of a female. I’ve always been of the understanding that Eileen Dietz was hired to be Linda Blair’s body double for the …

NECA have finally revealed an official release period for their highly anticipated Exorcist Possessed Regan Electronic Figure Boxed Set. As timely as ever, you can pre-order it now and have it in your hot little hands before Halloween this year. The item will hit shelves during October and is expected …

There are still plenty of people I meet who are genuinely creeped out at the very sight of Regan’s ghastly possessed face. They just can’t stand the sight of her and the memories of the film the image conjures up in their mind. If you also know people like this …

It’s been too long since I kicked back and properly enjoyed William Peter Blatty’s film Exorcist III: Legion. I consider it the strongest of all the Exorcist sequels/prequels. It’s a shame we’re still waiting on something official in the way of the Blatty’s original cut, instead of the studio-ravaged version …
