First of all the Exorcist creeps me out. Its based on a true story, so that gets me (although supposedly the child that it is based on is male, and was being sexually molested by his aunt, which caused certain psychotic episodes), plus the flashes are scary (you know the flashes they show you of the demon).
people today are so desensitized, so we don't find it scary. I still do because I was not allowed to watch horror movies until I was 16. When I was 4 I accidently saw some of "Nightmare on Elm Street' and I'm still scarred. I have the movie and I still get scared while watching it, but my mom would say I have an overactive imaginaton.
Anyways...This movie looks like it sucks. usually when critics arent allowed to prescreen thats a sign that it bites. |
