The upside down cross being a symbol of satan is something only recent. It was originally known as the Cross of St. Peter, because St. Peter requested to be crucified upside down as his penance. It's also known as the symbol of martyrdom. This isn't a dig. I just wanted to share that
It is not a "was" the Vatican still uses the symbol in papal clothing and furniture, I remember years ago when some protestants claimed they were satanic for using the inverted cross in a chair without knowing what does the symbol actually stand for

Remember the first head-spin scene in The Exorcist? Where Regan said the "You know what she did?!" line? That was _Burke's_ voice - the man she killed and threw out the window. I saw the movie a dozen times over a quarter century, and _just_ realized that.
Yup, that's why the demon says "...Your cunting daughter?!?!". Because "cunting" is a very recognizable Burkism, making it more obvious that they're asking the Mom if she knows that it was Reagan that threw Burke out the window after killing him.😉 One of the many reasons why The Exorcist is still one of the greatest movies ever made.😁
Huh, rare use of Striped Hyenas in a movie. Most movies usually use Spotted ones only. Guess it was done because they are easier to tame. Anyway, I do wonder why nobody making these movies remembers that Pazuzu is a demon of air and birds, and have him use birds as his messengers and agents?
The inverted Cross is the mark of St. Peter. He was crucified upside down out of respect for Christ. Catholics know this, why would the demons do that? It makes no sense to me.
Actually St. Peter being crucified on an upside down cross comes from Apocrypha so its not canon to the Christian religion. The Church rejects those texts, so why shouldn't Catholics reject the "fact" of St. Peter's death.
@@Adam-rt2ir Because Catholics know that the inverted cross is referencing St. Peter. There are still painting and works of art in the Catholic church depicting it. St. George is also in the Apocrypha and we still use the image of him slaying the dragon. It would look silly if some how that was turned scary if you already know where it is from. The inverted cross is scary for people who do not know anything about Christianity or its symbols. Maybe to protestants who do not know about Peter being crucified upside down, it seems real to them but to me it is just silly.
I think the only prequel horror movie that was any good is The Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie... that might be the ONLY prequel movie that's been any good period
Since they mention emperor Justinian, the church was built in 6th century, not 5 AD, which contradicts the earlier scene, where Skarskard's character says the Byzantines(Romans) hadn't adopted Christianity yet. But, that would be impossible, since Kenya(where the film takes place), was outside of the Roman empire. It would make sense to have the Christian kings of Ethiopia do the church building, but the Ethiopians were Monophysites, which would make the church look nothing like what it looks in the movie, let alone have statues and obviously later Christian imagery. This movie is a mess...
Drives me fucking insane when people try to defend shitty tweets with "It was unexpected!" Yeah, no fucking shit it's unexpected when it comes out of nowhere. That doesn't make it good.
AD starts at the conception of Christ, 9 months gestation plus 4.33 years would be 5 A.D. Based on other small Byzantine churches, if it was completed in 5 A.D., it would have taken a minimum 20--30 years to build, which means it would have been started at least 5 years before Christ was even born and 31 years before Christ even began his ministry. Shyamalan, shyamalan ding dong
They mention Justinian, which means the church was built in the 500s AD, not 5 AD. The actors in the beginning botched their lines or the script did it for them.

The Exorcist: Great The Exorcist II: God-awful The Exorcist III: Actually pretty good. It's got Brad Dourif in it. Every other movie ever dragged into this poor franchise: Just awful. A movie with Stellan Skarsgard, David Bradley, and Alan Ford should _never_ be this bad.

Swedish Stellan Skarsgård was, like the Swedish Max von Sydow in the original Exorcist, a protégé of the Swedish director Ingmar Bergman, so there were a logic behind the casting of him in this prequels. But yes, both versions are bad. With good actors, though.
There's also The Ninth Configuration, directed by William Peter Blatty, the writer of both the first Exorcist movie and the book. It's a movie that he made because he was disappointed about The Exorcist 2. If you want, you can watch The Exorcist, then The Ninth Configuration and finally The Exorcist III, which he also directed.
Oh PLEASE, Stellan Skarsgård is OBVIOUSLY best known for being in _Peter-No-Tail In Americat_ Sorry, I just had to sperg about an obscure (but famous in its homeland) Swedish book series I got into a few years ago.
I remember being so stoked when I picked up the prequel for like $5 because Blockbuster had overstock or something, And then I felt like I was conned out of $5.

So WB Studios was hoping to achieve a rating between 5 and 7/10 with this film, if they hired Renny Harlin as a replacement director. Guy's career is so consistently mid, that 90% of his bland work has a 6.0/10, apart from "Long Kiss Goodnight". He's so average, he probably has 1.94 kids.
What? No credit for replacing one Swedish actor with another Swedish actor for the sake of keeping the accent roughly consistent? Because that's an important detail everyone would surely notice! lol
It couldn't have been built as a christian church, seeing as Jesus hadn't even hit puberty at that point. Also that would clash with the mention of byzantine soldiers, since the partition of the Roman Empire didn't happen untill the 4th century. Fun fact: The oldest known church in Africa was the Abu Mena Basilica in Alexandria, the oldest parts of which date back to the late 3rd century.
A devil’s advocate was originally someone meant to show that a putative saint wasn’t really that saintly. So rather than show the good side of something bad, a devil’s advocate showed the bad side of someone good. Nowadays nobody uses the term in its original sense. People used to put AD before the number of a year because it means Anno Domini, “the year of Our Lord.” So you’d say AD 500 rather than 500 AD…
@@ObiWahnKnobi Intresting fact that about the Abu Mena Basilica, I wasn't aware of it and will definitely check it out, but I'll hit you back with some healthy speculation about a possibly older site: you know those crazy rock hewn churches from Lalibela in Ethiopia? They are officially dated around the 13th century CE, but I know a few things about megalithic sacred sites, and Ethiopia has quite a few of them, all dated randomly based on the last emperor/ruler that re-employed the structure/s, as it's common practice in archeology, even when the inscriptions are clearly a later addition, which is usually understandable by their lower quality in both style and placement. So bare with me if you have the patience, as I take my sweet time😅 trying to be as precise and clear as possible. Rameses II in Egypt is the master example for this practice, even egyptologists agree that he basically tagged everything that didn't have a name on it, choosing among the most magnificent and enormous statues to usurp, such as the over 1000 tons toppled down colossus of the Ramesseum, whose origins, if we want to play the honesty game, are truly lost in time. But enough digression, let's go back to Lalibela and its churches, and here I'll admit I'm speculating, because why not? As I previously mentioned the Ethiopian megaliths are very randomly dated using the names found on the artifacts, such as stelae, obelisks etc.. even when the site is quite clearly of Neolithic era (following the official archeological narrative), or so old even the locals lost track of their origin, archeology can't refrain from getting impossible answers, and if no name is available carbon dating is their second choice, and to be clear, carbon dating is an amazing tool, I'm 100% for its use, but like all tools it has its limitations and its appropriate field of use, and as cautious these researchers are, it is simply wishful thinking to assume a precise construction date can be deduced by dating the organic remains found on site, because during the millenia literally anything could have happened to erase the earlier/original traces left by the builders, if they left any at all that is, giving results that are approximate at best. The Gedeo zone phallic "obelisks" are a very good example, originally dated around 1000CE, by absolute ignorance and arrogance I can only imagine, have now been pushed back around one century BC, which still makes little sense, but it's both a step in the right direction and proof that I'm talking from a logic stand point rather than rambling nonsense. 😅 So, here's the speculation, and thank you if you followed me to this point. The churches have indeed been worked on in the 13th century, as per the wish of king Gabriel Meskel (spelling?) Lalibela from whom they take their name. It is said the project took 24 years to complete (I'm going by memory but if it's not 24 is either a couple of years +/-), and this is the first clue something isn't right. I have no idea if you have a background in either engineering or construction, so I'll try my best to be clear. The problem is this: there are 11 churches in total, all hewn straight from the bedrock, which is made from a type of volcanic basalt, called scoria, which is not as hard as "normal" basalt, which is among the hardest stones on earth, but it's neither a soft rock like pumice or tuf, I'd guess it's a 5 on the mohs scale, but its hardness is not the main problem, the sheer volume of rock that had to be removed is, particularly with the primitive tools they had at their disposal. If we observe the churches details we can see that, as beutiful and peculiar as they are, their details are often off square, particularly the "free standing" ones, while as absurd as it sounds, the trenches that contain the churches are in comparison much straighter, and here I remind you they didn't have excavators, and maintaining a straight line in trenches around 15 meters deep while digging with soft metals and rock hammers is one of those things that can only work in theory, as the real world does not give, nor forgive. So, my speculative theory is that the core of the complex already existed in the form of "simple" megalithic temples hewn inside those big trenches, and the work Lalibela's men did was "redecorating" the three main structures, some of the ones hewn from the rock walls, and possibly hewn a couple of new ones, as I'll admit some are quite rough as already mentioned. This would make them the absolute oldest churches in Africa, if we accept their core as such of course, since they only became actual churches in the 13th century. All this speculation is based on my background, that is the most various. I hope it comes through that I have a decent historical knowledge, if maybe limited to only a few fields, but due to my OCD curiosity I taught myself some engineering notions, that I find invaluable for the study of megalithic structures, and the lack of which from archeologists in general is the main cause of misunderstandings, let's call them that. I also have some experience in sculpture through art school, so I know exactly what it takes to work hard stone, and my family used to own a construction company, where I worked seldomly, but that I got to know pretty well. I hope you found this whole "trip" intresting, it was fun for me to write down, and if I felt the need to list part of my background it isn't to show off, but to clarify I come from a position of curiosity, of inquiring, and even if not orthodox by any means, from logic, honesty and absolute humbleness. God bless, and all the best 👍🏻🖤🏴☠️

Playing devil's advocate: The church could have been built in 5AD and then 'buried' in 500AD
It couldn't have been built as a christian church, seeing as Jesus hadn't even hit puberty at that point.
Also that would clash with the mention of byzantine soldiers, since the partition of the Roman Empire didn't happen untill the 4th century.
Fun fact: The oldest known church in Africa was the Abu Mena Basilica in Alexandria, the oldest parts of which date back to the late 3rd century.
A devil’s advocate was originally someone meant to show that a putative saint wasn’t really that saintly. So rather than show the good side of something bad, a devil’s advocate showed the bad side of someone good.
Nowadays nobody uses the term in its original sense.
People used to put AD before the number of a year because it means Anno Domini, “the year of Our Lord.” So you’d say AD 500 rather than 500 AD…
Jesus would have been five years old so that also wouldn't have made sense.
@@ObiWahnKnobi Intresting fact that about the Abu Mena Basilica, I wasn't aware of it and will definitely check it out, but I'll hit you back with some healthy speculation about a possibly older site: you know those crazy rock hewn churches from Lalibela in Ethiopia? They are officially dated around the 13th century CE, but I know a few things about megalithic sacred sites, and Ethiopia has quite a few of them, all dated randomly based on the last emperor/ruler that re-employed the structure/s, as it's common practice in archeology, even when the inscriptions are clearly a later addition, which is usually understandable by their lower quality in both style and placement.
So bare with me if you have the patience, as I take my sweet time😅 trying to be as precise and clear as possible.
Rameses II in Egypt is the master example for this practice, even egyptologists agree that he basically tagged everything that didn't have a name on it, choosing among the most magnificent and enormous statues to usurp, such as the over 1000 tons toppled down colossus of the Ramesseum, whose origins, if we want to play the honesty game, are truly lost in time.
But enough digression, let's go back to Lalibela and its churches, and here I'll admit I'm speculating, because why not?
As I previously mentioned the Ethiopian megaliths are very randomly dated using the names found on the artifacts, such as stelae, obelisks etc.. even when the site is quite clearly of Neolithic era (following the official archeological narrative), or so old even the locals lost track of their origin, archeology can't refrain from getting impossible answers, and if no name is available carbon dating is their second choice, and to be clear, carbon dating is an amazing tool, I'm 100% for its use, but like all tools it has its limitations and its appropriate field of use, and as cautious these researchers are, it is simply wishful thinking to assume a precise construction date can be deduced by dating the organic remains found on site, because during the millenia literally anything could have happened to erase the earlier/original traces left by the builders, if they left any at all that is, giving results that are approximate at best. The Gedeo zone phallic "obelisks" are a very good example, originally dated around 1000CE, by absolute ignorance and arrogance I can only imagine, have now been pushed back around one century BC, which still makes little sense, but it's both a step in the right direction and proof that I'm talking from a logic stand point rather than rambling nonsense.
😅
So, here's the speculation, and thank you if you followed me to this point. The churches have indeed been worked on in the 13th century, as per the wish of king Gabriel Meskel (spelling?) Lalibela from whom they take their name. It is said the project took 24 years to complete (I'm going by memory but if it's not 24 is either a couple of years +/-), and this is the first clue something isn't right.
I have no idea if you have a background in either engineering or construction, so I'll try my best to be clear. The problem is this: there are 11 churches in total, all hewn straight from the bedrock, which is made from a type of volcanic basalt, called scoria, which is not as hard as "normal" basalt, which is among the hardest stones on earth, but it's neither a soft rock like pumice or tuf, I'd guess it's a 5 on the mohs scale, but its hardness is not the main problem, the sheer volume of rock that had to be removed is, particularly with the primitive tools they had at their disposal. If we observe the churches details we can see that, as beutiful and peculiar as they are, their details are often off square, particularly the "free standing" ones, while as absurd as it sounds, the trenches that contain the churches are in comparison much straighter, and here I remind you they didn't have excavators, and maintaining a straight line in trenches around 15 meters deep while digging with soft metals and rock hammers is one of those things that can only work in theory, as the real world does not give, nor forgive.
So, my speculative theory is that the core of the complex already existed in the form of "simple" megalithic temples hewn inside those big trenches, and the work Lalibela's men did was "redecorating" the three main structures, some of the ones hewn from the rock walls, and possibly hewn a couple of new ones, as I'll admit some are quite rough as already mentioned.
This would make them the absolute oldest churches in Africa, if we accept their core as such of course, since they only became actual churches in the 13th century. All this speculation is based on my background, that is the most various. I hope it comes through that I have a decent historical knowledge, if maybe limited to only a few fields, but due to my OCD curiosity I taught myself some engineering notions, that I find invaluable for the study of megalithic structures, and the lack of which from archeologists in general is the main cause of misunderstandings, let's call them that. I also have some experience in sculpture through art school, so I know exactly what it takes to work hard stone, and my family used to own a construction company, where I worked seldomly, but that I got to know pretty well.
I hope you found this whole "trip" intresting, it was fun for me to write down, and if I felt the need to list part of my background it isn't to show off, but to clarify I come from a position of curiosity, of inquiring, and even if not orthodox by any means, from logic, honesty and absolute humbleness.
God bless, and all the best 👍🏻🖤🏴☠️

Love your vids man
5:30 They could have buried it 500 years after building it.
I saw this movie when it came out, after your review it somehow makes more sense to me, Happy Halloween.
Exorcist III is an underrated gem
The part where you told the tricker treater to Shut the fuck up broke me.
"I don't wanna trick or treat at that house! That mean guy with the hat lives there, last year he yelled at me about cinematography."
"Yeah, but the chicken wings were good."
I’m so happy to see this I want to take the day off of work to enjoy it… also I don’t feel like working
5:15 to be fair, the church could have been built in 5 AD and them buried in 500 ad.

Possessed Sarah should have turned on the stove.
I remember the debacle of this movie when it originally came out. Thinking, are they going to start remaking movies before they are even relased now? Like the Spaceballs gag about watching VHS tapes before they are even released. I didn't realize just how close that stupid thought would actually come to reality. PREPARING TO FAST FORWARD!!!
