I recently got a copy of The Exorcist from a friend and will be seeing it soon for the first time (both versions). Should I see the prequels first? I always like seeing a series in chronological order for the first time.

The prequel The Beginning was not great, but it is worth a watch. I would say stick with the chronological viewing. I have heard The Exorcist III was good too, but,despite owning it, I have not seen it yet. I am very surprised that you have not seen that one yet, it is a classic. I will say that I do not watch it very often and am not a huge fan, but I do not deny that it is an excellent film in many ways.

I know, I often feel like an outsider for not having seen it. It has two prequels, The Beginning and Dominion, the latter of which was made first but then made again as the former when the studio wanted it to be a more mainstream Horror film.

I literally finished watching The Exorcist for the first time just now and thought it was very good. I want to see the rest of the series at some point, but I have my doubts they're on par with the original. The Heretic in particular seems much-maligned.

Back to anthologies, The ABCS Of Death sounds interesting, anyone here seen it?

2 is close behind the original Halloween for me too, always liked how they're so close with the continuity and timeframe.

Can't believe I didn't mention the Psycho films before as far as I know. I have yet to see any of them except for the fourth, which I remember catching on TV as a kid and liking.

You need to see the first. It is one of the best horror movies of all time, in my opinion. One of the few films I would possibly consider perfect. The second is pretty good too. Of course, it does not compare to the first.

I'll give them all a look, sometime. I've also been watching Bates Motel on A&E, which so far has been very good.
