Maltin Movie Guide Review:
The Exorcist - 3.5 out of 4 stars
"Intense, well-mounted adaptation of William Peter Blatty's best-seller, calculated to keep your stomach in knots from start to finish. Blair is "normal" 12-year old girl whose body is possessed by the Devil. Miller a trouble priest who attempts to confront the demon in her--and in himself. Oscar Winner for Blatty's screenplay; vocal effects by Mercedes McCambridge. Followed by two sequels, a prequel, and countless imitations. Reissued in 2000 with 11 minutes of (mostly needless) additional footage."
