The Exorcist: The Legendary Horror Movie is now available on Greek Netflix
To see her for the thousandth time or for the first time!
Netflix has just released one of the best horror movies of all time on its platform . We are talking about The Exorcist , which is now available on the streaming service and you can enjoy again (or even for the first time) the feeling of William Friedkin .
In case you don’t know, The Exorcist has received 2 Academy Awards, and in 2010 was designated by the Library of Congress as “culturally, aesthetically, and historically significant” and was selected for inclusion in the United States National Film Registry.
The film was directed by William Friedkin and starred Ellen Burstyn, Linda Blair, Jason Miller, Max von Sydow, Lee J. Cobb, Kitty Winn, Jack MacGowran, William O’Malley, Barton Heyman and others.
In case you haven’t seen the movie, the synopsis reads:
The 12-year-old daughter of an actress shows signs of demonic possession. The psychiatrists raise their hands and the case is taken over by two priests: one, elderly and experienced in cases of exorcism, the other, of Greek origin, with many psychiatric diplomas but also doubts about his faith.
Let us remind you that The Exorcist was a huge success at the global box office with 441 million in revenue, with a budget of only 11 million. Of course, apart from its commercial success, the film is considered one of the best horror films in the history of cinema.
Also, David Gordon Green, who gave us the new Halloween trilogy, will sit in the director’s chair of the new “The Exorcist” films. The story of William Friedkin comes to the fore again from Blumhouse and Universal Pictures with a new reboot trilogy.
According to what we know about the plot, it will continue from 1973’s “The Exorcist” and will probably ignore the events of the other films. Leslie Odom Jr. (One Night in Miami), will star in the role of a father who discovers that his daughter is possessed.
The new trilogy will be very expensive and blockbuster level
As we previously told you, the new Exorcist trilogy will be very expensive and blockbuster-level. The rights to the new trilogy were bought by Universal Pictures for over $400 million, of course to boost its streaming service, Peacock. The first film is scheduled for release on October 13, 2023.
The new Exorcist may be in the works, but starting today you’ll be able to enjoy the first film through the Netflix frequency.
