the Spider Walk. Good scene, but not in the context it was supposed to be used in the movie. By its self, it's fine, but it seemed out of place in the re-release.

love the movie, but not scary to me either. shocking maybe ( the "masturbates with a crucifix" scene of course ), but not scary. i think i actually laughed in one part...

I really think that The Exorcist is a stunning motion picture. Show it to the average human being and they have trouble watching it all. My best mate and girlfriend included.

I for one was scared but not enough to keep me awake, yet I found it hard to fall asleep. I was 14.

My stepdad saw it illegally on a tape from one of his friends when he was 18 and he lived in an old nunery which he and his family claimed was haunted and he couldn't sleep for months.

True story: My stepdad also claims that his bed has rattled like Reagans, only not as powerfully just a slight shudder constantly. And he's not the type to lie for no reason. Needless to say, he was out of that house as soon as he could get out.
