The Exorcist: The Version You've Never Seen (DVD)

Brace yourself as one of the all-time spellbinders possesses you all over again. Director William Friedkin and producer/screenwriter William Peter Blatty have revisited The Exorcist to integrate 11 minutes of scenes and images deleted before the film's 1973 release and digitally restore the picture and audio elements. The result is an experience more gripping than ever. Now seen are moments deepening the impact of the performances by Linda Blair, Ellen Burstyn, Jason Miller, Max von Sydow and Lee J. Cobb. They include a "nervous disorder" diagnosis, expansion of Father Merrin's arrival before the ritual, priestly doubts during the ritual, an epilogue with Lt. Kinderman and Father Dyer and most notably, a shattering staircase descent by Regan. Winner of Oscars of Best Adapted Screenplay (by Blatty) and Sound, The Exorcist astonishes time and again like no other movie. Approx. 127 minutes. **Please don't choose the $2.00 shipping option for your 1st purchase. ***The $3.99 shipping option does not have a tracking number. It is not tracked.
