the exorcist: believer spoilers //
honestly the parallel with the fact angela survived as a baby despite her dad choosing her mother over her vs catherine being killed despite the fact her dad chose her over angela was…very clever. well played there, demon, well played.
catherine didn’t deserve that though, I felt so bad for her :( the shot of angela back in school looking at catherine’s empty seat 💔

So I saw the trailer for the new Exorcist movie, and y’know, I’ve never really understood this whole angle of demonic possession as a shoe in the door to the loss of faith. Like, how does that rationally work out?
If the Devil (or Beelzebub, or Pazuzu, or whoever) is coming up to Earth, and proving his existence by hopping into the body of the nearest prepubescent girl and making her do horrible, disgusting things, is he not, by that same virtue, proving God’s existence?I mean, if there’s a Devil, and a Hell from which he came, does there not, by that same virtue, have to be a God that cast him down there? Is he not shooting himself in the cloven hoof with this whole scheme?
I mean, I get that deep down, Exorcism films are all deeply reactionary bunk meant to scare people into believing in and obeying traditional Christian values, and that’s why they’re always cropping up in times of social change. But it still doesn’t make any sense.

"I didn't actually witness it, y'know. The Oxygen Destroyer killing Godzilla. They wouldn't let me. In my opinion, it's because I'm not a member of the damn patriarchy."

I started watching The Exorcist: Believer before I left for work and honestly given the current trend of Hollywood doing soft reboots of old horror movies with the OG final girls (and Ash Williams at least in AVED) showing up grizzled and jaded and armed to the teeth, Regan McNeil has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever.

Listen, The Exorcist: Believer was a decent enough movie, but, as a sequel, it could never compare to the TV show.
The way season 1 portrayed Pazuzu... One of the best villains I've seen.

I watched Exorcist: Believer so that you don't waste your time...
As always my friends spoilers under the cut! ✝️

This movie....yeesh where do you start? It has none of the charm of the original. Relies heavily on cheap jump scares and feels personally like a generic exorcism movie with a weird abortion message and the exorcist legacy haphazardly stitched onto the ends. Angela and her father are fairly likeable, their story is tragic, dead mom and all. However they seem like a decent family. Katherine the possessed little girl who looked a bit like little Regan, her family in my opinion is less likeable. They're your typical white overtly religious babtist family which I've had my fill of in my life time.
The girls go to do a "ritual" in the woods, if you can call a pendulum reading a ritual. They light a candle and swing the pendulum and ask spirits to speak through them, particularly Angela's dead mom. Somehow this summons pazuzu? Umm well we aren't really sure it's pazuzu...it's never called by name in the movie. It seems to recognize Chris MacNeil when she joins the movie in the tail half buttttt in the first exorcist pazuzu seems to know karras and his mother without having met the two.
Speaking of the original, how can I not? All of the things related to the original are in the second half. We don't see Regan the entire movie except for a photo cameo and a very brief hospital visit at the end of the movie. Chris in the meantime has become an expert on exorcism from multiple religions for some reason....I suppose she didn't want to move on from the events of her daughter's possession. There are no priests connected to the original and when a priest finally steps into the spotlight to perform an exorcism he's killed pretty much immediately.
The girls chastise two characters harshly while possessed. Angela's father and her nurse neighbor. It's this weird anti abortion rhetoric we've all heard and maybe you're into that but I'm not...also if you're anti abortion maybe get off my blog...thanks. Anyways, they criticize the two for two separate events. The nurse had an abortion while trying to become a nun and hey remember when I said Angela's mom died before? Well it was while she was pregnant. Angela's father had the choice between saving his wife or his unborn baby and of course he chose his wife. However in a twist of fate his wife didn't make it regardless and they cut Angela out of her early.
Katherine really doesn't have a lot going on besides having a turbo religious family and doing this ritual. Ultimately she dies and Angela is saved which was really odd to me. I liked the twist they did, the demon said they could only choose one child to live. Katherine's father chose her, but the twist was they were choosing who to die. The only thing I didn't get was why the demon just....magically chose to be honorable to its word. Because as soon as Katherine is down for the count Angela is released and ok like nothing is wrong!
And life just...goes back to normal. Big whoop roll credits.
I didn't really care for this movie if you couldn't tell. As a standalone exorcism movie.... I'd maybe rank it higher but I'd say with confidence that I rate this 2/5 for the two eyes Chris MacNeil lost during this snoozefest

so the exorcist: believer is getting the same “pro-life” accusations that evil dead rise did and while I fully believe it’s okay for people’s interpretations of things to vary and while I know nothing is beyond criticism or flawless, I think we need to be careful about taking what villains, especially literal demonic entities, are saying in a film as the narrative that the film is trying to push.

it's kind of crazy hearing how the exorcist 1973 trailer was pulled from theatres because it caused epileptic seizures but now unskippable horror ads can just come in and use a strobe light effect and flashing without warning (rn it's the exorcist 2023 movie). like the considerations towards disabled people have always been pretty shitty but things are escalating in a direction i dont want.
