question
 

my brother is 12 in 1 month and he wants to watch the exorsist but will he be to violent for him

I think 12 is too young and not because I think The Exorcist is violent. It's more the crucifix fucking scene. I don't think I was 15 or 16 until I saw the Exorcist for the first time and that scene shocked me. The whole feel of the movie can be pretty intense.

Also, I think it also depends on what religious background you are. My boyfriend is a Baptist and The Exorcism of Emily Rose really freaked him out and he refuses to watch the Exorcist because of the whole demonic thing. My background is Catholic and I have no problem with it and the devil and demons don't scare me. If anything I understand it better because the Exorcist (and most other types of movies like this) go by "Catholic Rules" for exorcisms, demons, and the like.

That's a question for the child's parents, not a bunch of random people on the internet.

12 would be a little intense... but then again I was only 9... scared the fuck outta me, and I've been obsessed with horror, well, scince before that, but still. If the kid scares easily, then hell no... he might cry... :D

I do agree that you should consider what the 'rents say. They'll know best...
well, unless they're unrelenting christian types... the kind that shelters too much... like mine! :p

fuck it. i saw robocop when i was 8.

I have a better question.

I thought you had left??

Robocop vs. Excorsist...:rolleyes:


I don't even think there's a compitition...

'word'

the parents..not horror buffs'

Definitely not to violent. That was about the age I was when I first saw it.

I don't see why he shouldn't watch it. It's a good movie and definitely way more effective for kids around that age. I was probably about 11 when I first saw it and it scared the shit out of me. It has pretty much lost it's effect on me, but that's probably due to the fact that I don't believe in the devil.

I think it would be best to ask his parents. Better yet... Go away.

lol..
i remember seeing this when i was 14..i avoided walking past the t.v for weeks.

I have no input on this, mainly for the fact that I myself have not yet seen this film.

No way, I say! Go get some Disney movies instead. Ya shouldn't see the Exorcist movie until ya fifteen.

no because my mam and dad are out of town and i never seen it

When i first saw this film at eleven it dissapointed me,so ive never been a big fan of it.The green throw up was cool though.Thomas i dont think he should see it,wait a year or another,but if he wants to see it really bad,check with his parents first.

I say no.

Not because I think its too disturbing or graphic, but because he wont be able to appriciate it until he's older.

Your right,i should have waited,but im impatient....I might see it again soon,to give it another chance,i hope i like it,more then i did as a kid.

ok guys we will proparly end up watching IT tonight

Show him porn. Like really horrific illegal porn. Gash-fucking, double-fisting, amputee-sex, sex while on fire, broads getting punched in the stomach, all that shit. After he's watched Caligula, nothing will be too violent for him. Not even some 12 year old girl sticking Jesus in her kooter.

LMFAO!!!!!!:D

ok sounds good thanks
