So we went to see the all new Exorcist movie this week called The Exorcist: Believer This past Tuesday. Now I can say I'm not a huge fan of the Exorcist movies/franchise I seen all the movies and I think they are ok and I know this will be a controversial opinion but I don't believe the original movie is "the scariest movie of all time" I mean it probably was when it came out in the 70s when it first came out I do feel I have seen things that have been in my opinion more scary but I think also it depends on the person I guess. I did however enjoy the Exorcist TV series tho I thought that was good and really well done.

Anyway as for this we went to see it purely on pretty much the name sake alone and it is linked to the to the original first movie being this take place many years later This one is pretty much given the Halloween treatment and is suppose to be the first chapter in a brand new exorcist trilogy and you do get the feeling while watching this one that it is building to something bigger.

Your basically story is it focuses on the character of Angela (played by Lidya Jewett) who's mother dies while on a trip to haiti with her father (played by Leslie Odom Jr.) and her father is a very I would say cynical and skeptical man about all this type of supernatural stuff and that is where I believe the "believer" in the title comes from becasue after the events of the movie it makes him a believer. but anyway he has a good relationship with his daughter and one day blank and her friend Katherine (played by Olivia O'Neill) decided to try and contact Angela's mom's spirit and end up disappearing for 3 day and when they return they are not alone.. The Evil from the original movie has returned and has possessed the girls

Through the discovery process of figuring out what what is going on and how to help the girls Chris MacNeil (played by Ellen Burstyn) is reintroduced being she has experience with this returning evil force and she tries to help them out. And so a battle of good verses evil takes place for the girls souls.

Now I thought this movie was pretty good and it does have that kind of slow burn type of feeling were it starts off slow and then begins to escalate as the possession of the girls gets worse, Now personally I didn't find this scary at all not really one bit and that's just me. there was a girl sitting in the row in front of us to my left and she was jumping at every lil thing it was apparently terrifying her but it didn't faze me at all. I felt that this one was extremely tame compared to the original movie the original movie was intense, and shocking and graphic but I felt this one had none of that like I said it was very tame compared to the original movie and what made it so memorable and infamous.

I did feel that acting was good and the make-up effects were very well done as well as the visuals. It was a really well done movie I just feel that I guess I expected a bit more from it being it is an Exorcist movie. I did pretty much enjoy it more the most but but just as I said I did expect a bit more and I hope the second part delivers on that

Now if you like the Exorcist series and are a fan of it then I think you might like it more more then I did or if you are just curious about it it then I would recommend going to see it it
