The Exorcist

New 4K Restoration

50th Anniversary Screening

When 12-year-old Regan MacNeil (Linda Blair) suddenly begins to act erratically, her mother (Ellen Burstyn) desperately enlists the help of Father Damien Karas (Jason Miller), a young priest struggling with his own faith, to rid the young girl of the demonic force that possesses her. Often cited as the scariest film of all time, director William Friedkin’s influential masterpiece of terror changed the face of the horror genre forever. 

 

“If movies are, among other things, opportunities for escapism, then The Exorcist is one of the most powerful ever made... Rarely do movies affect us so deeply.”
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

This film is part of the After Hours series.
