    Obviously I’m gonna say this but the film is not a “shambles”.

    Here’s a link to the same website where I’ve got some positive feedback on the film. It’s not much but it’s shows it’s not a shambles.

    Regarding the downloading, if you’ve got a free Rapidshare account then there are limits to how much you can download each day.

    Blizzi here’s the link to the film through Rapidshare if that’s any help.

    I must admit I always thought it was Merrin who was the Exorcist. Aswell as the trailers showing Merrin being the exorcist, in the film itself where the two priests are discussing who should do the exorcism one of them says “should have someone with experience”. So it is difficult at first glance to consider Karras as the exorcist.

    It’s totally free. The thing is you can only register on specific days, it was Fridays but they’ve changed it.

    Here’s what they say on it:

    “We will be changing the open registration schedule for now on. We have not yet decided, but it will probably will be open 2 or 3 consecutive days, once per month. We’ll inform you here when we decide.”

    I agree it’s must be the end of the world if people like this are role models.

    Isn’t there a line in the Book of Revelation about the Whore of Babylon, or something like that.

    I always took the view that the Book of Revelation was a warning about The Roman Empire who were in power when the book was written & I always thought the prophecy idea was nonsense, but with Paris Hilton now being seen as a role model I’m not so sure.

    I guess he didn’t like it then:)

    Hey guys. I’ve been getting some positive feedback on a fanedit site I shared my edit with & I was curious as to whether anyone here has seen it.

    It’d be cool to hear what an Exorcist fan makes of it.

    All done.

    Here’s the demonoid torrent.
    http://www.demonoid.com/files/details/1250250/?rel=1184450460

    I won’t start seeding until tomorrow morning when I’ll seed it all day. I just wanted to get the torrent up & ready now I’ve finished the film.

    For those who don’t know, the general fan edit rule is that you must own the original film to download a fan edit.

    Thanks for the heads up on the spelling. I copied & pasted bits from the web so I’ll check them out.

    Regarding the names I’m just calling them:
    Dominion: The Fr Merrin Edition
    Exorcist III: The Fr Karras Edition

    I did flirt with the “LEGION” title but I just thought that would imply my edit was going to be how Blatty originaly intended the movie to be like, which it isn’t.

    I’ve kinda worked out what Karras scenes I’m using from The Exorcist which I think will make sense to the edited story.

    I’m undecided about doing my Dominion edit though. I mean there’s lots of Karras stuff in The Exorcist to use but not much of Merrin apart from the exorcism & I’m not sure it’ll work.

    But we’ll see “in time”. I’ll release E3 tomorrow & if there’s a general agreement that it worked OK I’ll have a crack at Dominion.

    I watched Devil’s Backbone for the first time yesterday & I thought it was excellent. It was a proper ghost story in my opinion.

    Not necessarly a scary film but I think most other films try to hard with the horror side of things & then the film falls apart. This film works brilliantly on all levels.

    I agree that Devil’s Backbone has a similar feel to Dominion. But like ManInKhakiExorcist said I’m not sure sure Del Toro would of made the film scarier as he would of been working with the same script.

    That 1st Legion book is seriously trippy man. The version I’ve got is that yellow hardback.

    Thanks very much Blizzi for those scans, it’s an excellent contribution to the forum.

    I’ve only seen Saw 1 & I thought it sucked. It felt like it was made by a 15 year old who was trying to out do SEVEN. For me it wasn’t scary, clever, deep or original.

    *SPOILERS*

    I mean that bit at the end where the guy chops his hand off, that was so dumb. Espcially when the other guy at the start of the film took off his jacket to get something. Just dumb.

    Basically.

    1. Karras gets possessed by Pazuzu.
    2. This makes his eyes go yellow.
    3. Karras drives out Pazuzu.
    4. This makes his eyes go normal.

    5. The devil then puts the Gemini into Karras before he dies as revenge.
    6. Not sure if his eyes go yellow again. They probably do. 🙂

    Hope this helps.
