columbiancannon … cheers to finding this article! I agree with the writer because the proof is right there in images. HELLO! Subliminals do exist whether we think they do or not, so we should just “slam” the door on any kind of naysayers that always profess to know everything! 😉
Fatherbowden, with all due respect that was pretty rude. I never professed to know ‘everything’, and I resent your implication. I do know a lot about this film, and I know that there are no ‘subliminal edits’ in it, and I’ve explained how the word has been misused and the surrounding sensationalism created much hype. This sensationalistic article proves nothing, except that the word was used incorrectly in describing the quick scary edits. Love it if you must, for what reason I can’t even imagine. I just ask that people not be so easily led, there is so much silliness about this film that people still buy into and its just not necessary.
Found this at the VIDEO WATCHDOG website, It’s about how WILLIAM Friedkin might have been inspired in using subliminals for the Exorcist. There’s interesting pictures to show proof of this. Here’s the link:

Slam234, Here we go again with you and the word “Subliminal”.Lets not beat that dead horse any longer. Anyway I read the article found by our friend colombiancannon and I have to say there is a similarities between the films. Friedkin always denied any knowledge of the subliminal images because ,in my opinion,he wanted to hype the movie.The more you talk about something the more people just want to see for them self. That in turn makes more hype and that equals .. the all mighty dollar.
