What a great string here. I’m very in favor of columbiacannon’s idea. He seems to make sense to me and has replied in my string.
Also, can you image if we used the actors of yore to be in the remake Exorcist? Perhaps we could have:
Linda Blair as Sharon Spencer
Max von Sydow as Father Merrin (now that he really is old enough without the makeup)
Ellen Burstyn as Willi or Karras’ Mother (what a waste of talent if she played either part, but she’s known for cameos)
Father O’Malley as Tom, President of University
Pete Materson as Dr. Barringer, Clinic Director (as reprise of his original role)
Arthur Storch as the Psychiatrist (as reprise of his original role)
Ron Faber as Chuck, Assistant Director / Demonic Voice (another reprise)
Donna Mitchell as Party Guest, Mary Jo Perrin (another reprise)
Roy Cooper as the Jesuit Dean (another reprise)
Bill Blatty gets his cameo back
Anyone else? I think the remainder are either dead or too old or no longer in entertainment.
