So many to choose from hmmm……

1.Delete a frame of the synch session where Linda blair rolls her eyes, the whole audience began to laugh at that.

2.Cutout out James Earl Jones part.

3.Cutout the song and dance of Regan at school another laugh.

4.Cutout a frame or two of the moutains man fall and it looks like a doll hitting below(and I realize it was) but it cheapend an already questionable production job.

5.Do a better vision layover from the unpossessed to the possessed boy.

***** Comment/Wish ********

I know Linda was older when filming but since Dick Smith did this movie also, I was majorly dissapointed in the makeup, he surely could have made it more of a match than he did afterall that “bedroom scene was supposedly to be from the original exorcist and she was 12.

I don’t want to hear the excuse some might say as “he was trying to bring something a little age range but all of us still have 12 years old and like I said, closer to 12 than what he did.

Because Father Karras asked for Pazuzu to come into him and possess his body.

I’ll review to make sure, but, that subway scene with the bum is before Pazuzu began/completed his possession of Regan.

I’ll double-check but, all they did was splice the trailers from both films to make one.

Watch the trailers from the DVD and see if this isn’t the case.

In this case, a cast of total unknowns
and although I highly doubt it, MAYBE WB’s could get Freidkin to direct this “re-tooling”.

[Holy7]

Hmmmm….interesting, I have always thought that homeless man on the subway was possessed by Pazuzu and thus perhaps explains the demons voice of the bum when Father Karras visited Regan.

PRO

I would leave the newest opening shot from outside the McNeil house at night but remove the “extra” clinic scenes which to me, lowered the quality of the movie.

Leave in the Spidewalk BUT delete out that rather “Comic” look on Chris’ face when she see’s Regan walking.

Finally, film the new death scene with Fr.Karras(Yes, I know Jason Miller is dead” but with CGI these days they could film the resurrection scene and morph the face of Jason Miller onto the actor and to me…that would be great.

[Holy7]

It probably wasn’t until my 15th viewing of the film that I began to really examine the scene, etc., and the fact on DVD instead of the Theater.

Excellent film.
