It took me many years to write this review and here I am, finally... While nothing compares to the original which is why it took me so long to review it, this film comes close in its own way. This should have been the sequel to The Exorcist, not the cash grab trash they put out in 1977. You have to appreciate and know the story of the first film to understand and grasp this one. George C Scott was brilliant and definitely carried this to another level. If you're a fan of the original, give this a chance.
