Comment:
Prequel to 'The Exorcist', based on the novel by William Peter Blatty. Paul Schrader turned in this 'tame' cut of the film and was replaced on the project by Renny Harlin. Warner Bros. decided to release this version after positive buzz following a screening at the 2005 Brussels Fantasy Film Festival.
