  • i dont get how people get scared of Linda Blair when seeing her out in public. shes not in makeup she just looks like a regular ass woman

  • how can people be all scared and not wanna watch such an awesome movie?

  • My grandmother met Linda Blair once at a cocktail party in california about 20 years ago. She said even though they only spoke for less than 10 minutes she was very polite & lady like. Linda Blair is a normal woman, who just happened to be in a film that became iconic in horror. & Left a impact on all people that saw it. The problem with people is they believe what they see on tv, They judge a persons character, Even if it's a person of fiction. They let thier imaginations run wild to idiot town

  • miscariage?

  • funny how in the end it was humans that tortured and haunted Linda Blair not demons , spirits, or curses. Just goes too show that the human race is the most frightening thing. These people were possessed by their own thoughts and beliefs not by the devil

  • linda blair looks hottttt

  • what? people were so gullible back those days. LOL

  • milf alert lina is is hot

  • her life became so frightening, that she didn't even have children, fearing something would happen to them, which is terrible, i feel bad for linda, having to live in fear for a great deal of her life because of some f**king idiots, see what religion does to some people, turns them into f**king monsters but for them their doing it in the name of GOD, get the f**k outta here, your doing it cause your a moron who can't separate reality from fiction

  • people are so stupid sometimes, some people are so easily manipulated, are they really that slow that they can't separate reality from a movie, she was acting, playing a role, hello!

  • at 7.43...what exactly she said..? can any 1 write here thanx

  • I remember when I bought this on dvd, my mom was telling me about how her parents and grandparents went to see this when it first came out and people were legit throwing up and fainting and running out of the theater and then told me when she and her best friend watched it at like 1am with all the lights off. Now when I watch it, I'm not scared as easily cuz I'm pretty used to all the special effects...guess they werent ;D hahaha great movie, my favorite.

  • Man I wish I had been alive when the movie hit theaters! I would have loved to just watch the crowd. The reactions back then remind me a bit of the reactions to the movie Paranormal Activity.

    I don't remember how old I was when I saw this movie for the 1st time, all I know is that I've seen it over 20+ times and I never get tired of it. The fact that there were no computer graphics used (not like in todays movies) just makes it that more remarkable!

    Linda shouldn't have been treated like that!

  • This really was a masterpiece before it's time. You know something's good if it had that much of an effect on people. Only wish was that Linda could have stayed in show business after all of that.

  • I never appreciated how idiotic people could be until I wrote a novel with a particularly brutal scene in it. Some people assumed I was a monster, and I received a death threat. The thing isn't even published yet. Just a few people reading the manuscript and word of mouth were enough to do that. Poor Linda Blair!

  • Commited to mental institutions after seeing the film? It's a fucking movie!

  • linda blair is a fantastic actress and person i had the chance to meet her one time at a function for animals and she is so level headed and normal. i have to say about the acadamy award she should of won, if she had won that award no way would people given her the crap they had given her all these years, she is a true actress and one of the most great actresses in hollywood

  • My sisters said,after they'd been to the cinema to see it,that whilst they were queueing to see it that congregants of the Salvation Army were trying to deter people from watching but that they'd keep the citadel open so anyone who felt they needed to talk could do so once they'd left the cinema! They also mentioned that audience members were fainting or rushing to leave or puking in the aisles! Can't ever recall a 'modern day' film having that effect! Still the BEST!

  • I feel so bad for Linda she has gotten so much crap due to the film, she defiantly deserved the Academy Award Best Supporting Actress

  • 4:05 what were they playing with

  • @GraveCorpsesHour They're talking about messing around with demonic material

  • rofl i can't believe this even made people sick or

    watever really its not even that great of a movie its good..

    but not great lol!

  • @LeeUnited4eva What you need to understand was that this movie came out in 1973, and at this time the whole idea of possession, and even the gore used in the film was so new and unsettling to a good fraction of the public.

  • Thanks for uploading these interesting clips :)

  • imagine lindas boyfriends when theyre having intercourse after this film ,and linda like lots of women say "fuck me" lol i bet they soiled the bed hahaha.

  • the only parts of this film that scare me is when the white face randomly pops up!!! thats why i can't watch this film!

  • @hannahhazlehurst That`s Eileen Dietz as Pazuzu`s True Face ( " The Face of Death " ) !

  • My brother thinks this movie is evil he wontt= even watch it (we are watching it this weekend for movie night

  • linda blair is a chrstian how can people think all these bad things abouit her bunch of idiots should be a shame to them selves linda is a awsome actress love to meet her one day

  • (( Did someone live in that house after the movie and the rumors ?? ))

  • Linda Blair the "Devil"? Poor girl, idiot people bothering her like that!

  • This is a really interesting documentary, except for the stupid music and editing choice... Its almost like they're trying to make the documentary itself scary or something, but why?? Isn't the whole point of this documentary to debunk the hysteria that followed Blair after the film was released? Whoever edited this documentary is an idiot.

  • Linda Blair is awesome!

  • Is it really worth it to make millions of dollars for this film and so much life lost and devastation?

  • @4368jkoch "Life lost"? People die every day in the course of humanity going about our lives. Some people die while at work. Some people die who are related to other people who are at work when it happens, or when they get the news of the passing. That several deaths occurred during the months-long process of making this film does not mean that the film /caused/ the deaths.

  • @Vortigern99 Nine deaths IS a lot of deaths for the relatively small circle of people involved with the film in general. Certainly not proof, but something to think about.

  • Death threats??? People are so Stupid..take religion too far.........

  • THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR POSTING THIS GREAT VIDEO!!

    I loooooove Linda Blair!!

    Linda was an excellent actress.....She is wonderful and so beautiful.....Wow!!

    And The Exorcist is my favorite horror movie.

    Thank you.....thank you.....thank you!

  • @exmk000

    (Anyone know how to get rid of this stupid @ feature)

    I found the ducumentary in my collection. It was from a documentary about visual and sound effects, not a documentary specifically about The Exorcist, although a good 15-20 minutes of the 90 minute documentary is dedicated to this film.

    It also covers Cannibal Holocaust, Susperia, and a few others.

    I think that I'll upload it. It's quite old but quite good

    Thanks for your responses, though.

  • Does anyone remember a documentary about The Exorcist where one segment got really in depth about how they made the audio effects?

    I remember a man being interviewed saying that the main sound artist used and old cracked leather wallet to create the noise heard when the demon made Regan's head do the 360.

    There was some really interesting information about the behind the scenes people.

    It's not "Fear of God: 25 years..." that is posted on this site but it was very much like it.

  • Do you know what year this Documentary was made, exmk000?

    I've found info that states that it was BBC produced but the website doesn't give the year.

    I would guess that it would be in Linda Blairs imbd, though?

  • Pretty sure it was 1996.

  • I've me Linda and she is nothing like"Regan McNeil".

    She is not nuts and and she was never really poesessed.

  • @143AC well durr, Linda was ACTING for crying out loud! ofcourse she wasn't possessed, it's called good acting.

  • The power of cinema can have a strong impact on people who can't differentiate art from reality. As for the deaths during the film's production and fires incinerating sets, it was a long shoot. Both 'The Shining' and 'Legend' had long shoots and problems with sets burning down. An equally tumultuous production, for different reasons, is 'Apocalypse Now', with a typhoon destroying sets and it's lead actor going into cardiac arrest. Making a film can be a tough job, any way you slice it.

  • Max von Sydow thinks all the talk about "the curse of The Exorcist" is rubbish. It was a long shoot - about a year - people will die in the course of a year, whether they're making horror movies or not!

  • this just proves how crazy people can get when a movie like this is made. y would they take he part so seriously? are people that stupid?

  • this is insane that anyone would put theyre daughter through what she did just for fame and money ,she wasnt even old enough 2 watch the film.The fact that the devil was played by a acutal child is sickaing she didnt have a chance! its a ADULT film if children cant watch it they sure shouldnt be in it!!!

  • just stupid people taking it way to seriously its just a movie i watched this first time when i was about 12 and yes i was scarred and i didnt sleep well but i didnt go insane and tried to commit suicide ,idiots

  • I think she also doesnt have anything to do with satan.But the fact she played this much good by blieving in her role, the movie became something more than reality it self...

  • How stupid could people be to think that Linda Blair had anything to do with the devil!!! Idiots!!!

  • @butterclip well it was the early 70's they never had a film like this ever it made people faint,puke,and traumatized them in the theaters some walked out becuase it was too much....They didn't have internet cell phones so they that what kind of kid would want to do this kind of film....They thought this was real basically -.-

  • @butterclip Because people were that affected by the movie and it scared them that much. That is the explanation, I am pretty sure.

  • It's hard for me to believe that people hear about all the strange occurrences associated with the filming and the purported effects it had on some people, yet STILL do not believe in Satan and demons. They exist, but, people will continue to deny that despite whatever evidence they see, if they don't really want to believe it for whatever reason.

  • Linda's dog is cute! :)

  • @butterclip they must be retarded lol

  • It's so horrible that they could threaten an innocent girl just for being in a movie.

  • The comment about some audience members being committed is completely accurate ---

    My father was a security guard and was assigned to a movie theater back when this came out.

    He and the other guards ended up dragging a couple people out of the theater who were having nervous breakdowns because it scared them so bad.

  • i don't think people believed more in God or the devil in the 70's,i just think the subject mater of this movie was never before seen especially in such raw form until this movie came out.nowadays people love gore and blood in horror movies,however this movie wasn't just about the special effects and the gore the entire story was very uneasy that people were shaken up by that as much if not more then the actual violence in the movie. a young average girl being possessed is nothing to sneeze at.

  • Wow I feel really sad that Linda didn't have her own child because of all the stress & trauma she experienced. She really is a great & kind lady.

  • Power to Linda Blair and the cast of the exorcist if their acting TRULY made people believe this horrific things happened to them due to a movie.

  • If you watch the cast reunion on Good Morning America, the actress who played the mom said it was the scene at the hospital that made most people faint. That's when they put a needle in her throat.

  • I still say this is the scariest movie ever made. Fuck all this blood and gore bullshit, that's boring. I was truly terrified for hours after this.

  • I have to agree. Nothing else in film history has ever really come close to this kind of freakiness.

  • This blood and gore genre we seem to be in is more revolting and utterly disgusting, rather than horrifying.

  • @lukehiggins123456 hours? i've been truely terrified for 9 years after seeing this. hahah. horror movies are terrible nowadays. look at all of the exorcism movies they make now to try and get the shock value from this movie. they're so innacurate its actually funny. its amazing how accurate blatty was to the tell tale signs and actions of a possesed being. i saw a movie that showed a girl who was possessed by satan. anyone who saw or read the exorcist knows the devil wouldnt possess somebody!!

  • Even though the 70's where allready messed up, the reaction people had to the movie shows you that their moral standards where still way better than today's.

    If the Movie would have been made today. Not only would nobody faint or complain about it being too violent or demonic... on the contrary they would propably complain about it being too boring and not violent enough (as some kids complaint on the YouTube Comments).

    Nobody complaint about scary movie (which is WAY less suited for Children)

  • No, she has taken her fame from this movie and parlayed it into a fascinating career. Her work with animals is stunning. Her memories of making this film are mostly fine.

  • Linda Blair is so cute!!!!!!

  • Indeed, Linda Blair *is* gorgeous. She's also extremely talented, and was grown up well beyond her years to play one of the most difficult roles ever.

  • Linda Blair is gorgeous.

  • I agree, despite seeing and experiencing what it's like to be possesed. It's still must be amazing to star in such a powerful film. Especially if it makes a success, which it has. I think Linda made the right choice to star in it.

  • This is a wonderful example of how impressionable, and to be honest, how stupid people can be. Take some pea soup, makeup and plant a thought, that's all it takes. No wonder religion has survived for so long, and why those who claim to speak for God have made so much money out of it. They literally bank on the human psyche being so weak. I really pity those who believe in all this nonsense.

  • Considering the way things were then, I would have to say this was the scarriest movie ever produced. I own it, and I watch it all the time, and I get scared every time. I used to wish I could be possessed like Regan just to see what it would feel like. Then with my luck they'd get Billy Graham to exorcise me.

  • it's just a movie for fuck's sake people are screwed in the head. i wonder how children's fairy tales affect them..

  • exmk000 Thx you so so much for uploading this video thx you !!!!!! I am going to the stairs of the exorcist at Washingthon D.C for see this home and the stairs (l)

  • Billy Graham thought the celluloid was possesed HAHAHAHAHA.

  • Billy Graham is a jerkoff!

  • Fuck Billy Graham. His fucking bible is possessed.
