- Dive into the iconic 1973 horror classic The Exorcist, directed by William Friedkin and based on William Peter Blatty’s novel of the same name. In this video, we unpack why the title refers to the exorcist-singular. Who is the titular exorcist, and why does the title focus on them rather than the possessed or the exorcism itself?
This landmark film, starring Ellen Burstyn, Max von Sydow, Jason Miller, and Linda Blair, revolutionized the horror genre with its gripping story of a young girl’s possession and the spiritual battle waged to save her. From its spine-chilling visuals to its profound themes of faith and redemption, The Exorcist continues to haunt audiences and spark discussion.
Join us as we explore the deeper meaning behind the title and its connection to the movie's central themes. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share your thoughts in the comments!

I love it. You're just saying anything on here.
thats my style!
The title of the film refers to Father Karras played by Jason Miller. Blatty explains it in an interview a number of years ago.
@2:23 the grey sweatpants...🥵 Lol
William Peter Blatty explained in a 1998 interview, “The exorcist is Karras. And Regan’s possession is the crucible of his struggle for faith, his salvation.” The author went on to attribute uncertainty over the identity of the exorcist to an imbalance of narrative attention in his script, with Merrin seeming more like the titular character “because so much of Karras is missing”. He also characterized Karras’ suicide as “his total triumph… an act of love and self-sacrifice,”
personally i dont really care for explanations that are found outside the art itself. its an interesting kind if trivia but otherwise denies any opportunity to development personally since you give over that moment of discovery to another person.
@@BorlyBorelstein Nobody knows the themes better than the writer of the novel.
@@johndeagle4389 Once again, reread what I wrote. if you simply want answers to questions art is the last place you should ever look.
Friedkin did not direct 91/2 Weeks. Adrian Lyne directed 9.5 Weeks.
Shut up you aren't supposed to know that.
