Garbage!! Jst wasted my night's sleep for this shit

They call it a "classic," a "pinnacle of horror," but let’s be honest—*The Exorcist* is one of the most unintentionally hilarious excuses for a horror movie ever made. If you're expecting to be scared out of your wits, prepare instead to roll your eyes or, better yet, burst into laughter. What starts as a slow-burn build-up to supposedly "terrifying" moments feels more like watching a lengthy, melodramatic soap opera about a sick child with bizarre quirks. Regan's antics, from pea soup vomit to spinning her head like a malfunctioning ceiling fan, are less horrifying and more absurd. Are we really supposed to tremble when she crab-walks down the stairs? It looks like Cirque du Soleil auditioned for the wrong show. The priests, portrayed as solemn saviors, only add to the laugh factor. Their dramatic chanting and yelling at the demon ("THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!") sound more like a theatrical rehearsal than an exorcism. At points, I was rooting for Pazuzu because it seemed like the demon was just bored and trying to spice things up. Yes, for its time, the visuals were groundbreaking, and yes, the themes of faith and good versus evil might have been deep. But in today’s world, the so-called scares are just outdated gags. This movie’s biggest sin isn’t demonic possession—it’s being a tedious, overrated yawnfest masquerading as horror. If you’re seeking genuine horror, look elsewhere. If you want a laugh and some meme-worthy moments, this "masterpiece" might just make your night. Rating: 2/10 (1 point for pea soup hilarity, another for unintentional comedy gold).
