The Exorcist Believer REVIEW - Absolute TRASH a horrendous cash grab

And the writers had Chris MacNeil disrespect the sacrifices that Lankester Merrin and Damien Karras made in order to save Regan. There was a reason why she wasn't in that room with them. Chris would've crumbled the moment the ritual began and got in the way. I guess she can "SEE" why she had no business being in that room with them.

[@sean5558]

Not to mention the fact Regan f*cked herself bloody with a crucifix and Cris got her face bloodied after she had her face jammed between her legs , seems like patriarchy was trying to spare her the trauma of something worse happening

[@MrHellsing76]

I think that's why the actress refused offers till it was 5-6 times the original asking price, and they fully funded a charity she was involved with.

Imagine disrespecting the two men who literally sacrificed their lives to save your daughter’s soul lol. And then you’ve written a book about the worst thing that ever happened to your daughter. Chris is clearly a bad person lol

[@robfuzz]

yea, being a liberal I'm up for a little wokeness, but this went too far. Shoehorning it in to appear modern, Green ended up disrespecting the character and the film's roots and showed me he didn't know what he was doing at all. It was total cringe. Chris would've NEVER mentioned patriarchy. She also wouldn't have become some exorcism guru with no trauma herself to speak of.

David gordan green has effectively wrecked both chances he had with two of horror's most iconic franchises...cant say im sorry for him after what he did to michael myers tho!!

[@ctam79]

I liked the first 2. Halloween Ends was shit. I think he was going for some kind of connection with Halloween 4 where Michael's spirit goes into Jamie Lloyd, where Michael's spirit goes into Cory. It was a weak premise, there's no way to ground it in reality. I liked the first 2 because it portrayed Michael as a normal psychopathic person who ages like everyone else. It was realistic somewhat, so it was better than the crap put out as sequels to the original Halloween.

[@JohnDavidSullivan]

@@ctam79 I thought the same as you initially but if you think about it more like one story like Kill Bill... Ends actually destroys everything that 2018 and Kills created. So ultimately I end up hating the entire trilogy because of it. For me the only trilogy is 1, 2 and H20

[@hunteringram6637]

I thought Halloween (2018) was great. It was everything I wanted from a new Halloween movie. But it should've ended there. I wasn't a big fan of kills but could understand why people liked it. At least it had michael killing people. Ends is just a train wreck that never should've happened.

[@bryan123483]

Well definitely Exorcist movies at the very least....

[@rojelio011]

Unfortunately, one of the reasons for that is, that you can do everything only ONCE. There's not going to be EVER again in future another such a classic as Halloween, since there's only one Halloween eve every year and if you establish an idea that there's a killer around a holiday/festival/eve, whatever...every other idea with the same basis is gonna be just a copycat, even if its Friday The 13th. And if there was a movie made 50 years ago about Exorcism and people didn't see it before - no matter how great the next movie with similar theme is going to be, it will always be just some form of a copy of the original. I mean, you can't shock the audience the same way, twice. And I'm afraid there was already filmed absolutely everything that happens in this World, so I'm not sure, whether there's any room left for truly original ideas anymore. But hey, that's just my opinion :D

[@ExorcistReviews]

If a sequel was made for a documentary-esque film that used real locations, would you expect it to also include real locations? I would! Exorcist:Believer: Port-Au-Prince, Haiti is a real enough location to start the film with , but Leslie Odom Jr's character must have taken a Kansas cyclone to get to Percy, Georgia 13 years later. That's not on the map. It might as well have been Haddonfield... I'm gonna guess "Perry", Georgia didn't want any part of being in the film.

it just shocks me that anybody thought this IP was worth 400 million. In no universe could this be a financially responsible decision even if the movie had been good. In 2016, there was a a critically well received television show that was a sequel to the original movie and it was canceled due to low ratings. I actually liked the snow but the concept wasn’t a draw then to most people and still isn’t now. If Blumhouse had stuck to their low budget, low risk format they could have had a five million exorcism movie come out on Friday the 13th and made a profit. They didn’t need “The Exorcist” IP to do that. Nobody should pay this much money for “The Exorcist” or “Jaws” franchise. Not everything can or should be a franchise

[@CyberLance26]

Well there are plenty of horror movies about this kind of stuff so seems like there is a big audience for it but that TV show was unlucky for some reason.

@@CyberLance26 there is a big audience for horror movies about possession and exorcism but there isn’t an audience for the continuation of the story from the original The Exorcist from 1973. General audiences have proven that despite a love and reverence for the the classic film, people don’t want to see the storyline continued.

A former nun, her Catholic husband, a priest, three evangelicals, an atheist and a voodoo priestess walk into a double exorcism….. what started out interesting and promising quickly turned into a mish-mash of farce and absurdity. Although there were a couple of jump scares, the story line was contrived and exhausting. The cameos were the only redeeming factor to this movie. After finally making it to the credits, I noticed it was produced by the same people who produce the illustrious Halloween Ends…. That's all I needed to see to understand why this movie was so far off in left field. Was it scary? No. thought provoking? No. Cinematic? Maybe a little. Worth $15? Certainly not.

[@sensereference2227]

The 400 million was for the rights permanently. They can get other directors to do new films or even make another tv show out of it in the future. Securing rights to franchises is a long-term investment. If they get a writer/director who really knows what they're doing to make another film or tv show, then they might be able to recoup their investment over time. Plus, with streaming just having more content to pad out your catalogue can be worth it. It's already being reported in places that David Gordon Green will likely not be directing any more sequels, so they can turn things around if they fork out the money for a good writer/director. David Bruckner did a decent job with Hellraiser, so maybe they should give him a try. If anything, the film might at least have some interesting visuals with him at the helm.

If they only spent 30 million, and they made 27 million on opening weekend with what is likely a very limited marketing budget, it likely won't lose money, it might still make money dispite its flaws. $30 is a small budget for something of Excorcist's brand recognition. Of course that isn't counting the $400 rights expense, but that will likely be expected to be made over multiple movies and TV shows. Maybe a video game.

[@MrHReviews]

[@sensereference2227]

@@MrHReviews It's made 45 million worldwide in its first weekend. It will likely break even just in box office numbers alone given the small budget. Then it will be kicked over to their streaming platform. It's probably going to be seen as a win by the studio because it has the budget and marketing of a direct-to-streaming horror film anyway, so anything it makes at the box office is likely just a bonus to them. Every Halloween they can now get a new writer and director to do something with the IP and draw people to their steaming service, so from a business perspective this might not be such a bad move even if this first new entry is bad. It's clear that they didn't have a lot of faith in this particular film or director to begin with given the relatively small budget.

And yet horror fans will make this movie profitable in spite of how awful it is. It only had a $30 million budget, and has already grossed $44 million. It'll pass $70 million by the end of next weekend, and thus be profitable. And that's all the studio cares about. The studio can hide the loss of the purchase of the franchise with a tax writeoff, because it's a PURCHASE. This will offset profits from their huge successes this year, so they don't have to pay taxes. Once you understand tax law, you'll see that movie studios have more tax exemptions than any other business. That's how they can survive massive strings of flops.

I naively thought this would be an enjoyable decent movie 😆🙈🤦🏽‍♂️

[@greyworld6242]

The Vatican tapes movie looks amazing compared to this crap!

I love the brutal review 😁😂😂,I'm subscribing asap bro...

I think this is the first time I've ever heard Mr. H upset. Damn, this must be genuinely be a bad movie.

[@SpeedBoost]

It's laughable that after the police show up to a house with a priest that has had his head turned into a turntable, two little girls who have hundreds of signs of abuse and violence inflicted onto them, one of them is dead! ... and there is Voodoo and Occult paraphernalia all over the Crime Scene! ... and literally no one is arrested and everyone gets to go home! What world does this film exist in? As it's definitely not planet Earth as it has the logic of a video game and is less believable than a cartoon! The original film made sense because Father Merrin died of a heart attack and Father Karass threw himself out of a window, so Kinderman couldn't really argue anything else, he couldn't even prove what happened to Burke Dennings as there was no evidence other than his speculation. So Chris and Reagan could walk away from that Crime Scene as there was no evidence of "foul play" ... if Kinderman walked into Reagan's room and Lancaster Merrin was turned into a human Pez dispenser and Father Karass was disemboweled prior to being thrown out of a window, then Chris and Reagan would have been arrested! The Exorcist Believer has Cops walk into an obvious case of Occult PDFILE sacrifices and two murders, and they don't even attempt to arrest anyone, and it's treated like everyone just got a parking ticket for having their cars parked outside of the neighbours house!

Word is they paid $400 million for the rights. So this is going to be an interesting one to watch.

[@sean5558]

Not interesting, it’s a travesty and waste of box office money

[@transformersfan500okane3]

To me, It's not a bad movie it is not just Halloween ends, it is to me A MASTERPIECE 1200 STARS

David Gordon Green is the true killer/monster when it comes to horror movies.

[@Father_Daniel]

I wasn't expecting much but it was even worse then I expected. Probably the worst Possession movie I've ever seen and the fact that it has Exorcist in the title is such a shame. David Gordon green and blumhouse should be ashamed of how careless they were with this film

[@joe-ru9gh]

You poor man you look so tired like you've been through a exorcism yourself 😢

[@jimred5700]

The "patriarchy" line is shameful. An insult on every level.

[@phillipfaile3122]

I saw previews, casually. Nothing made me even want to watch a preview of it.

[@ephraimwinslow]

"LOOK GUYS A BLACK VERSION OF REAGAN!!!" [Anyone with taste/pattern recognition] has left the chat.

[@darkwoods1954]

I've tried twice to watch it and couldn't even get half way through. The Exorcist doesn't really lend it self to being a franchise anyway.

[@MarkoUntitled]

It's not only that Gordon Green destroyed two iconic horror franchises so far but the way he talks about it and how easy going he is about the criticisms makes me mad. He has no understanding or love for the genre. It's all very cheap and surface level.

[@angelaschmalke7836]

If Mr. H said it's not scary I don't want to watch it.

[@soniam1499]

Saw this movie over the weekend, I wasn't excited about it, it was more like let's see how it is but the trailers looked stupid 💯 It was boring, stupid, the girls were overdone on their makeup, horrible acting It was complete trash I completely agree with everything you just said. You gained a fan ans subscriber

[@scottaznavourian3720]

400 million cash brab for maybe 50 million 😂

[@gaspunkfiction]

Back in the days it was the black girl tho 😩🤣😭🤣😭
