BOORMAN & THE DEVIL + EXORCIST II: THE HERETIC | Offscreen
Nearly fifty years after the first sequel to The Exorcist was reviled by critics and audiences alike, we present this cult film maudit alongside a new documentary about the making of the film.
BOORMAN AND THE DEVIL
Not just an enthralling documentary about John Boorman's ill-fated sequel to The Exorcist, but a study of the gulf between aspiration and audience expectation, a flashback to when studios gambled on artistic visions, and a tribute to this brilliant director. You'll want to watch Exorcist II: The Heretic afterwards!
EXORCIST II: THE HERETIC
Linda Blair is back as Regan in a sequel unjustly dismissed by some Exorcist fans as the worst film ever made. It's a metaphysical vision of good versus evil, with a Morricone score, hallucinatory production design and brilliant locust footage. Wildly ambitious and offbeat, this deserves reassessment on its own terms.
