I only watched The Exorcist again the other day. Arguably the best horror film ever made. This scene is pure nightmare fuel.
It's one of three truly great films Friedkin directed, the other two being The French Connection and Sorcerer.When I watched it again a couple of years ago, I found it completely unsettling in different way to before. I first saw it when I was 14 and my uncle brought me to it in the cinema when they unbanned it here. It was the big screen in the Ormonde Cinema in Stillorgan, though it was only about two thirds full. It was incredible, I only knew a bit about it and it was such a thrill. Two college-aged girls in front of us walked out before they even got through the opening sequence in Iraq.
Anyway, when I watched it again, it wasn't the possession or the gore that haunted me afterwards. It was that medical testing scene when they're doing the scans on her, doing the lumbar puncture, etc. and the girl is terrified. That's the bit where you know the character suffered, she wasn't really there when Pazuzu was in charge but she still had to go through that almost medieval horror in the hospital. What a superb film.
Never heard of Sorcerer! How can this be? I like the cut of its jib.It's one of three truly great films Friedkin directed, the other two being The French Connection and Sorcerer.
Watching it the other day I had to turn away during the medical procedure bit. The spurting blood was too much.
