Lots of crowd reports are coming in now and people are supposedly leaving the theaters "terrified" after watching Exorcist The Beginning.
Apparently others also are finding the Exorcist the Beginning is a good horror flick too. I don't know why so many people in these messages groups seem to want to get caught up in previous directorial discussions but the movie is good!
The exorcist the beginning is scaring people and theaters are selling out according to some "theater watch" threads in the movie related message boards.
I know guam has it scheduled for more saturday theater showtimes than any other picture now After it has already run the full Friday there. http://www.tangotheatres.com/ (Guam is the first place in the USA a movie has a full theater day so this is after Friday results becuase it's saturday morning there now.)
I saw the premiere. if anyone wnats a non biased non director geek opinion then here's mine about the Exorcist The Beginning.
I'm going to see it again now to see the crowds jump. Here was my post from my first veiwing.
Saw Exorcist TB Premiere Last night at Mann's Chinese. True exorcist fans you will NOT disappointed!
A true HORROR movie. It is horrific, gory, scary and it fills in all the backstory for the original while having you cringe and cheer along the way. Let's just say a Father Merrin superhero might be viable. You will recognize the demon by words and deeds.
The girl seated next to me kept her head in her hands the whole time saying - Oh F@#$ Oh F@#$#. Minimal cheese, cool story. Won't give stuff away but it's Indiana Jones meets Lucifer.
Isabella is hot in the movie and hotter in a real life (blonde at the moment) and Stellan kicks demonic butt like Russel Crowe with a cross.
And true to the 1970's movie there is ample juxaposition of flagrant unholy activity and unspeakable blasphamy. ( Well no crucifix masturbation so you can take the kids but close and truly gross and horrific so be prepared with "earmuffs and eyemuffs" every once in a while.)
Damn good adventure and scare and fans of Father Merrin will see why taking on Regan in the seventies really was a comparative walk in the park.
Look in the 70's the idea of possession was new and therefore made an impact impossible to make today but frankly this movie is BETTER. Don't believe me? Then watch this then rent the 70's version. You will be surprised. Take care and say a prayer just in case.... Don't wear your crucifix as it will probably scorch your chest!

Y'know what? I actually liked both of the "Exorcist" sequels, but since you're being such a Fuckwit Spamer nuisance, I'm going to make a point NOT to see this one and to tell all my horror-loving friends to avoid this one like the plague. Have a nice day.

You sir, are a moron. I hope you spend the money you're 'earning' spamming these groups on a nice 8-ball, and i look forward to stumbling over your blue corpse in the streets soon.
Could we exorcise this kind of brain dead crap from teh past films forum please. We are not interested in the latest summer teenybopper crap and really don't like it when PR flaks pretend they are jes plain folks and promo these turkeys. Save the shite for the current-films head cases - they are probably dumb enough to believe this stuff anyhow.

It's so cute when USENET posters try to be snobs about other groups.

And where are these reports coming from? Sure not any site I go to...

Amazing how you aren't citing any places this actually occured in.
> Look in the 70's the idea of possession was new
LOL! The idea of possession has been around since the middle ages, it didn't start in the 70's... !

But are they handing out barf bags at the theaters as they did 35 years ago for MARK OF THE DEVIL?

Of course. It wouldn't do to take the kiddies to see a young girl diddling herself with a crucifix. But "truly gross and horrific" scenes are just the things that make a fine family film.
