Angelina Jolie returns in Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, and Wade and Kevin also offer their first-time impressions of 1973's classic, The Exorcist.
Titus & Scott Beauchamp discuss William Friedkin's The Exorcist as a Catholic horror, where the confrontation with evil is part of man's supernatural destiny. Horror both issues from the revelations of our modern scientific powers & also investigates their limits. It makes the case for faith in our humanity at the same time it opens up the possibility that being human isn't special. Body horror especially makes us ask ourselves whether being human really is special.
Endlich Zweistelligkeit im #Horrorctober! Gemeinsam mit Christian Finck (bekannt durch Devils & Demons, Smart mit Bart & True Crime Germany) feiern wir ein Fest der Freude und Dämonenaustreibung. William Friedkin's The Exorcist stand auf dem Programm und die drei Herren kommen aus der Schwärmerei gar nicht mehr raus. Neben dem Lob für die Masken und praktischen Effekte, wird noch auf die durch die Bank starken schauspielerischen Leistungen und den ruhigen Build Up näher eingegangen. Im diesjährigen #Horrorctober wurde der Film auch noch bei unseren Freunden von den Abspannguckern (https://abspanngucker.de/2018/10/episode053/) und Bahnhofskino (https://www.bahnhofskino.com/2018/10/der-exorzist-directors-cut-podcast.html) besprochen.

I didn't love Hereditary. So I brought in Film Critic Adam Nayman to play counsellor and walk me through those feelings.We discuss the film and its relationship to "Elevated Horror", the hype and comparisons to William Friedkin's The Exorcist, the branding from the cool kids at A24, and the wide gap in reception between RottenTomatoes (currently 92%) and CinemaScore (D+).This is an exhaustive, spoiler-heavy look at a film some are calling the scariest movie in decades.Follow Adam Nayman on Twitter and keep up with his writing in Cinemascope, The Ringer, Reverse Shot, Sight and Sound and Little White Lies.Also order yourself a copy of Adam's book, Ben Wheatley: Confusion and Carnage, which is not unrelated to the current discussion. Also (and this is unrelated), preorder Adam's new book, The Coen Brothers: This Book Really Ties the Films Together.I don't write books so just follow me on Twitter and right here at www.justsayrad.com
This week, we're taking a look at one of the most monumental, and most impactful psychotronic film in our show's history! This week, we're talking about William Friedkin's THE EXORCIST (1973)! SYNOPSIS: 12-year-old Regan MacNeil begins to adapt an explicit new personality as strange events befall the local area of Georgetown. Her mother becomes torn between science and superstition in a desperate bid to save her daughter, and ultimately turns to her last hope: Father Damien Karras, a troubled priest who is struggling with his own faith. We're joined this week by special guest Kat Davis, who nominated this week's film. We’d love to hear from you!
