Lol brilliant comments

Oh, I thought he was president of the United States
Back when horror movies were genuinely scary and not just filler inbetween jump scares.
Paranormal activity was pretty good until the end
tbh when i watched exorcist for the first time a few years ago, it wasn't scary at all. just kinda gross
@@ssj4rit all the medical stuff really freaked me out the first time I watched it. And although all the possession gimmick had become a big cliché lately, some of Reagan's scared screams in some parts of the movie made me feel uneasy in how realistic they felt.
Also, the spiderwalk, the motherFUCKING spiderwalk.
I watched the rerelease in 2000. Half the theater was hysterical laughing. I wasn't. I realized that our society had started to become desensitized. That's scarier than the movie.
@@maxigol1977 I hoped it meant that they'd have to get more creative with how they scare the public. But seeing as many horror movies lately are still relying on jumpscares....yeah.
Also, what scares people in a specific society changes through time. In the 60s and 70s, films like Rosemary's Baby or The Exorcist exploited the whole Satanism craze, and it WAS scary. Now, it's cheesy and overdone. But if someone decided to make a horror film about, I dont know, school shootings, or nuclear war, or racial/homophobic hate crimes, now THAT would be scary!
“I’ve seen the Exorcist 167 times, and it gets funnier every time I watch it!”
-Beetlejuice
Same here!
I weigh 600 pounds brotha
When you get older and closer to death, movies like the Exorcist will terrify you more.
Yes, it's hilarious. Never understood why it disturbed so many..it's so funny.
@John Pratt That's pretty damn ominous, dude..!
linda blair acted her butt off in the exorcist. I'm still amazed at how scary her performance really was.
Jonathon Battiest: Not really. She didn't actually play the demon. Pazuzu was played (voiced) by Mercedes McCambridge and one or more stunt actors were involved in many of the more physical scenes.
@@jamessandy5873 What a stupid comment lol
She did an AMAZING job acting. The voice and stunt work are completely secondary to her acting skills.
@@dariusgreysun how was it stupid. He basically answered the question...she didnt really play the demon.
It's a stupid comment because hes trying to downplay what Linda Blair had to go through while making this movie they used industrial refrigeration units to make that Room cold so you could see her breath when they would start shooting in the morning it would be as cold as negative 40 in there . So trying to make it seem as though she did nothing because they had someone else record all the demon voice dialog. Which by the way Was another amazing actress who I heard was just chain smoking to make her voice sound that way she was really dedicated to what she did.
But still hes trying to downplay what Linda did in this movie.
and what she did was extremely tough on her.
And she did play the demon she didn't voice it she had to do everything we saw on screen all the dialog the scariest parts.
And another fun fact she as Well as other cast members have talked about On numerous occasion's.
She (Linda) was going through puberty at the time,
and Breast were growing in and she was starting to look too old for the role so they would painfully wrap her chest to smash her breast down to make her look younger Mike And if you seen men the Blair's other work and her other various photo shoots She is quite the buxom woman it's a weird to talk About as far as this role goes because she was 12 through 14 while shooting it but it she just the reality she went through hell she had to sit through make up she had to sit in a freezing cold Room literally negative 20 to 40ﾟF she had to have her chest and wrapped up extremely tight so her breast wouldn't show it was a horrible uncomfortable experience for her and she did a fucking fantastic job.
And this no profile picture having probably fake name having Hiding behind anonymity coward is sitting here shiting on the incredibly hard work a 12 to 14 year old girl had to do those scenes where she's getting jerked back-and-forth in the bed those were actually her they had a rope on her back Fucking ripping her back and then pushing her forward.
And this person who's likely done nothing And I'm talking nothing other than read drink eat and criticize. Just has to let their opinion be known to try to diminish the amazing job a young girl did in what is in my opinion the most Terrifying movie of all time, And this dipshit just has to try to downplay her achievements to feel better about themselves. That's why it's a Fucking Stupid Comment.
@@michaell6807 Because he discounted her performance. He obviously knows jack shit about the behind the scenes story. She was so fucking creepy as that character that it fucked with the adult actors heads involved. There's far more than that but they specifically refer to LINDA BLAIR not any voice actors or stunt doubles. She OWNED that role....as an adolescent no less.
Pazuzu never died. He just got a job as a RUclips moderator.
He does part time also as a destiny 2 ninja.
He's gotta make a living somehow
He also took part of modern feminist rallies.
Well, he is now RUclips CEO
Lol
The walking down the stairs backward part haunted my childhood for years.
That scene wasn't in the original movie. It was added later.
That never freaked me out. I think it just looked silly.
@@vikings844 uncut version it was there
Me too😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
How old are you?
"12"
Is there someone inside of you?
"Sometimes"
*FBI enters the room*
*FBI OPEN UP*
I love how your the only one I can find that pointed this out lmao
Ladies and gentlemen... we got it
@@tyanctil well like you know how RUclips is with pointing stuff out so quick 😂😂😂I was just pointing out how weird it was with the lack of that being pointed out
Best comment here hahahaha
In 2021 a movie could never scare you enough to make you walk out and cry. I couldn't imagine how scary this movie was back in the 70's. Truly fascinating.
While I agree, I also think a lot has to do with how de-sensitized everyone has become and definitely how much less religious people are... they just don't seem to have that visceral reaction. Even if you were to present this movie to someone who gets scared easily and is in their teens or 20s... this movie won't really bother them like it would someone in the 70s.
Nah, people are harder to scare in 2021, you can see actual people being dismembered on the internet, movies can't compare to that shit. This movie made me laugh when i was a kid.
Considered the scariest movie next to Rosemary’s Baby and The Omen.
As an alpha straight man, I agree. This movie made me cry when I first saw it. Scary shit.
@@Filthy_Larry "alpha" LOL!
My favourite Disney prince
Mine too lol
what type of headassery is this
ik what I said was a joke 2
LMAO
LOLOLOL
The Exorcist is still the scariest movie I've ever seen...even after all these years it's still frightening.
Agreed. I re-watched it today and still had the heebie-jeebies
It definitely sets a firm foundation for just about every religious horror movie since it’s release, but I don’t think you can beat The Conjuring (the first one) Us is also pretty terrifying
Watch Rosemarys Baby. Id say even more frightening than this.
@@tiredofbeing I saw Rosemary's Baby...yes, that movie was also very unsettling... especially because of how they used suggestion as part of the horror... masterfully crafted movie.
Yes I agree. I never would have thought that a film could be so scary. I had goosebumps for weeks😅
Linda Blair did such a freaking great job as Regan. She was incredible. Gave such life to the role. After watching The Exorcist at age 10 I felt so sorry for what she went through. It ruined Linda Blair, she was never the same after this movie. One of my favourite movies of all time.
After 40+ years of watching horror flix of every kind I've come to the conclusion that nothing will ever top the exorcist and its enduring impact
That movie scared the shit out of me and it was the first oldish movie that did
Mrdoomy Gaming i could never watch this movie
Why not it's pretty good you should watch it when you are bored
I saw this movie in the theater. And I fainted at the scene when the girl crawled backwards spewing blood from her mouth. It's weird how scary that movie is.
That movie was so funny
It may be funny for you but I shit my self lol
The exorcist is one of the greatest horror movies of all time, pazuzu is really creepy btw is John Constantine on the list?
Yeh I agree smiler and yes he is on the list, thanks :)
John “constantine” Wick
The tv series Constantine was awesome and gave a bit more knowledge on pazuzu and lamashtu. Shame it got canned after the 1st series
Oh please do Constantine! Thanks. 😀
Good one
"Is there someone inside you"
"Sometimes"
Gurl, I feel ya

@Luis Z ...tf...
**pornhub intro plays**
i-
That was so sad.
My parents were hippies and when they went to watch this in the theatre, dad took 4 hits of LSD first. That.... was unwise 🤣🤣🤣
lmao
Liar
lmfao i went and saw sinister on a eighth of mushrooms
Bet your dad's head was spinning as well
Just in the United States, about 2500 people are instatutionlized from seeing this movie under the influence of acid.
Bro, there has NEVER been a movie as terrifying as the Exorcist.
I love how stellan Skarsgard portrayed father Lancaster Merrin. He's like a modern battle priest who is worthy as Pazuzu's Arch Nemesis.
The Exorcist and Rosemary's Baby are two of the scariest films I've ever watched.
Watch Ghost House
No movie has truly scared me like this movie had. These new ones are just jump scares and cheap CGI
@Chris Pink The Witch was crap
@Chris Pink what is name of movie
@Chris Pink I loved the ending, that's all I can really say about it
@Chris Pink THE WITCH ...YOU GOT RIGHT..WICKED SICK MINDED
Jonathan Rivera
Exactly my thought. Still number one scariest movie of all time.
Pazuzu is nothing compared to my wife during her time of the month
You are right @biggyman33
Lol and you still with her? Hahah crazy you got alot of ball's or you just crazy to be with her
People in Mesopotamia prayed to Pazuzu to protect their children from his wife, Lamashtu, who was way bitchier than him.
Ba dum tiss...
Zinger!
Or my ex-wife.
I just remembered that I first watched the exorcist when I was about 5. Me and my sister said we wanted to watch a scary movie and my aunt went to rent the fucking exorcist to show a 5 and 7 year old. Needless to say I was fucking terrified and couldn’t even get out of my bed in the morning frozen still with fear for about 10 minutes what seemed like forever thinking the girl was right there around the corner from my door. Eventually I got the courage to run passed the demon door and hit a powerful left to jump down half the stairs and leap off the rest of them to the first floor where my mom, ain’t and grandma were waiting at the dinner table drinking coffee. I played it off like I was all good but wondered where my sister was. She always woke up before me so not seeing her down there, I instantly assumed that she was frozen with fear in her bed avoiding the demon by her door also. Was in the shitter tho.
I thought seeing it a 9 was bad.
I would argue that, despite MANY great horror movies being released since The Exorcist, it remains the scariest horror movie yet made.
Unlike most horror movies, especially this past couple decades, its fear comes from the genuinely disturbing material...rather than the infamous "jump scares". Ironically, if I'm remembering correctly, the only "jump scares" in the movie were unrelated to the possession (EX: the phone suddenly ringing while Father Damian is intently listening to his recordings of Reagan).
If The Exorcist had been made today, I guarantee there would be some stupid scene where all the lights go out, and demon-Reagan pops out to attack the priests, and that kind of thing. There's just not a lot of subtlety in modern horror.
“Growing up in a strict Christian household...I wasn’t able to watching the Exorcist until I was 11 with friends...”
Christian or not, what responsible parent would let their
Lewis Choy my parents lmao They were like if you don’t believe this will happen lmao
😂😂 first time i seen this i was 11.. At my best friends slumber party.. Who doesnt love a good scary movie?
I don't think you understand the further meaning of "strict Christian"
I was 9. Yes no child should see it. My Covert Narcissist mom said yes you can get possessed by the Devil. I was traumatize for a year.
Lewis Choy I was 11 when it came out and I wanted to see it because I liked scary movies (I thought!). My dad wanted to see it because it involved the Catholic faith. Yeah, we stayed til the end and yeah, I didn’t sleep with the light off for about a month!
This is perfect for Halloween I've been waiting forever for an explanation to this classic demon.
Damian Starks 👍
Imagine Dean Winchester’s reaction to meeting “Pazuzu” and hearing his name...
He’d go, pazuzu who named this asshat? Where’s my first blade…
@@adamcurrier3190I'm going to gank this demon!
I watched this movie when it was first televised in 1974. I was only nine, and I convinced my parents to let me stay home alone while they and my brothers went to the drive-in to see the Towering Inferno. My favorite horror of all times. Forty five years later it is still the best horror flick I have ever seen.
You're fair brave 😄
Back when they put REAL EFFORT into making a movie actually scary before cgi took over.
Agreed. Cgi can be great to help along a story but it is over used now rather than make up, real locations etc.
Reo Reborn well said. I agree too.
BS, that's just "Old good, New bad". There have been many great horror movies in current times, like Rec, Hereditary, Midsommar, You're Next and more.
Forget about CGI, it's all about bad writing, direction, and injection of sjw agenda.
That causes you only watch films made in America
A perfect choice for a Halloween video. The flashes of the demon in the movie were absolutely terrifying
I saw this movie on television with my mom at age 7. She warned me that it was really scary but of course I took this as some kind of challenge. It had such a profound effect on me. Mom tucking me in and checking in the closet and under the bed at night was no longer an effective defense because I knew that absolute evil could materialize at will to get me! The Exorcist was my first exposure to the ideas of spiritual warfare and unseen darkness in the world, and sparked my lifelong love for horror films and all things spooky. Thank you for this video Niyat, on Halloween no less! 😀❤️👻
Can we take a moment to appreciate how cute little Linda Blair was at the start of the video?
Pazuzu is that you?
I would amend your comment to say that films since The Exorcist have TRIED to be scarier. Remember that this was made back in 1973. The Vietnam War wouldn't officially end until 1975 and its horrors were still being played out on TVs on a daily basis. America was embroiled in undoubtedly the biggest culture war it's ever seen that helped to bring down a president. And the Catholic Church was regarded as the only spiritual safety net for a large part of the population.
Many more erudite critics of The Exorcist have justly praised this film, so I can't really add to that part of the conversation. For myself, though, I will say that this is the "closest" to what might regarded as real supernatural evil as you'll likely ever see. You buy into the world of Iraq and Georgetown 100%. The people chosen inhabit real lives. Even the names are believable, powerful, and "earthly" - Lancaster Merrin, Damien Karras, Regan McNeil, Burke Dennings, William Kinderman. These don't sound fabricated, but could be your neighbor, someone in law enforcement, or even a person of prominence within the Catholic hierarchy.
And Pazuzu himself is a "real" demon that people both feared and worshipped and has a long and frightful history. As much as I love Alien, this isn't a fanciful xenomorph. Nor is it a killer shark or a guy in a William Shatner mask, but something that COULD exist in a supernatural realm. The actors and filmmakers took the source material seriously and with enormous respect. It isn't played for laughs or cheap effects thrills. It's a story of elemental good versus evil in the political heart of the U.S. And it has transcended time to still be regarded as one of the most heart-pounding films ever produced.
The Vietnam war ended in 1973. The North invaded the South in 1975 is a separate conflict but they're close together so people consider them as part of the same war
We're probably going under a bigger culture war rn
Well said. I don't believe in the supernatural but I believed in it while watching this.
I actually read your comment in its entirety and I wholeheartedly agree!
@hoibshMercy Ms. Hershey!
Yes, indeed she was a scarily fine tasty treat in The Entity.
I'd forgotten about that one...
I'm so glad you doing this video. All time scariest movie too me.
I enjoy how l there’s a backstory to these demons all the way to Babylonian myth
The exorcist will always be one of the best horror movies
Eugene Blyther - You don’t need any.
Pregnant women: “Yo Pazuzu can you help me with my pregnancy against this Evil Women?”
Pazuzu: “Sure”
It’s more of a hobby I guess. Gotta do something for the community 🤷🏼♂️
“Is there someone inside you” there will never be a time where I’m not dirty enough to hear this in a serious tone
“Is there far scarier films made since?” Nope.
Angel Heart or the Shinning.
The Thing.
Try n catch excorcist 3… in terms of screenplay it is as good but mind you it is more talkie but you will feel the presence of the demon throughout
pazuzu is summoned once a year in a forest in northern california by wealthy elites
Lies
s0mankts0160 bill jokes
That’s Moloch the great horned owl or Stolas
Yes indeed. The Elites gather in that accursed woods to do their rituals
my mum (who always saw her dead uncles shadow hanging in her childhood home) told me she was scared when reading the book. i rlly didnt think it was any kind of scary (but i loved how it was free for interpretation whether or not it was a demon) maybe its her church trauma that made it double scary
Already knows it’s gonna be a awesome video!
Should I watch it
isn't that the name of Professor Farnsworth's wish granting gargoyle from Futurama?
Yes, Pazuzu is also the name of the demon who Professor Farnsworth owned and put through college. Pazuzu escaped and due to Farnsworth's senility he could not be found. However it is later revealed that he was hiding on a wing of the Planet Express ship and when Farnsworth was drowning in the Fountain of Aging, Pazuzu saved him and in reward Farnsworth granted him freedom. Pazuzu moved to Paris and had a son to whom he told his story of freedom.
He is apparently bound to grant the Professor three wishes, though the reason is unknown. The wishes do not seem to be supernatural in nature, as he has only been shown to rescue the Professor from two desperate situations.
I think he also said.....,"Bon wee"..
"Hail Science!"
still the scariest movie ever made.
is it?
Pazuzu was once Lamashtu’s lover but she screwed him over so they became enemies. That’s why people invoked him even though he was evil, they used him to drive away Lamashtu!
I was 12 when I saw it at the theatres. SCARED THE CRAP out of me lol I slept with the light on for a year
Love the creepy sounds in the background
Thanks Artorias :)
I love your videos! I hope you can tackle about the lesser key of Solomon. Keep up all the high quality content
I watched it for the first time just a few years ago and I can definitely see how back in the day it would freak people out and even still today it's still got that effect. But the 1 part that got me was the medical scene with the catheter being put in her artery in her upper chest!! Because I've been through stuff like that because I am disabled.
Could you please do the great spiders from lords of the rings?
Sure thing buddy! adding them to the list now, thanks :)
@@filmcomicsexplained thanks
Not bad. he can do Nerubians too. :)
Children of Ungoliant.
I advise you to watch about it in the channels specialized in the Tolkien work. Otherwise, it's pretty common to have mistakes about it.
I watched this movie when I was seventeen with my girlfriend. The movie scared the shit out of us. There were actually St. John ambulance paramedics in the theatre tending to people.
Pazuzu was the protector of little children, as his wife Lamashtu, who liked to devour babies, couldn't stand the sight of his face.
There’s never been a scarier movie before or after the exorcist.
There never will be...
A+ comment indeed.
Hereditary is disgustingly brilliant
@@ananosanikidze2520
I found it a bit boring.
True. Because the movie is based on real events. And the phenomenal acting of Linda Blair...at such a young age to give off a realistic, uncomfortable and creepy performance was very eerie to watch. From a movie at such a time lacking any CGI, computer effects or cheap jump scares they totally nailed it. I have experienced and seen demonic possession in my life and the Exorcist is the only movie that made me shift in my seat.
I grew up in a very Catholic household, and I was allowed (rather forced) to watch this film at the age of 9 or so in the late 80's. And the sole purpose was to make me more devout in my religion. I was already an altar boy! Truly terrifying then, and it still gives me the chills.
Wow that's messed up. Christianity is all about choice and should never be forced especially upon children in such a gruesome wa
Religion is fake
Yikes. Nothing like Catholicism to traumatize kids in order to make them do what you want. Hopefully you came out of the altar boy experience intact.
Being an eighties fan I think An American Werewolf In London needs a bit of love. It's one of my favourite films. Fantastic mix of comedy, horror, romance and it has a great soundtrack. Amazing Oscar winning special effects. Oh and less said about the sequel the better. It is being remade by John Landis' son Max Landis.
Yes! I did not expect it to have such a good soundtrack.
Yeah one of my old favourites when i was a young lad and when the main guy has those freaky nightmares when those nazi monster things storm in his house an kill his family i used to b friggin terrified also american werewolf in paris is a bag of shit also! G
Dave Conlan i like that movie too
Absolutely love that movie!! It was at least twenty yrs old when I first saw it, and it really holds up. I think the bits of comedy help horror/creature films to age well. Since the special effects will inevitably age with the movie, keeping a sense of humor just changes the tone of the whole movie over time (to each generation of audiences) instead of just really dating it. American werewolf in London is a great example of just the right tone.
Re Animator and Dead Alive (released as Brain Dead in some countries) are two of my favorites that also age well, in part because they were so comedy based to begin with. Not as scary, but still great.
(Obviously American werewolf in London has one of the most famous special effects scenes lf all time, that is still gross and graphic today, so I'm definitely NOT shitting on its special effects.)
@@colemarie9262 Re-animator is a great film as well. I believe it's in the process of being remade at the minute. I don't think it can live up to the original though, but I'll definitely be interested in checking it out. Who would have thought the guy who made Brain Dead and Bad Taste would go on to be such a famous director with The Lord of the Rings films and King Kong.
Thanks for the info on Pazuzu. Some of it I knew, most I didn't. Not sure if I agree that there have been scarier movies since, but there are some really good ones out there.
About your confusion on the veneration of Pazuzu, it's good to consider that before the zoroastrian introduction to a divine battle between good and evil, most deities like Pazuzu were seen as neutral, but potentially dangerous, forces of evil. For example the head of the Gorgon was a popular amulet against thieves in ancient Greece and South Italy.
I do however wonder where you got the notion from that Hanbu be the King of the underworld. I couldn't find that for myself
I swear I was possessed by Pazuzu a few days ago with a few too many tequilas.
Edit: Im good now though.
Yeah man, I got really, REALLY possessed on my birthday a few days ago.
Lmao
Who'll you gone drink again

Director William Friedkin claimed this wasn't a horror movie and it ended up being one of THE most infamous and iconic horror movies of all time.
MrAdammassacre true, it was about a priest losing and finding his faith
Wow after all these years obviously looking at the exorcist beyond a classic.. Watching the behind the scenes and this shows the detail of the exorcist!. Great video!

Throwing in another request for Alucard from Hellsing Ultimate! That universe has a very unique vampire system.

Hell Yeah! Alucard is one of my favorite anime characters!
@@darkashtar the only explanation that anyone needs for Alucard is that he is the most badass thing on the fucking planet. He literally becomes a quantum being after absorbing Schrodinger, and that's on TOP of his vampire badassery.

Informative video ... Thanks for the upload 👍
"The Exorcist" is actually a composite derived from the Earling, Iowa possession & exorcism of Emma Schmidt (aka Anna Ecklund) in 1928 (and many years beyond), the Maryland/St Louis possession and exorcism of Ronald Hunkeler in 1949, and the circa late 1950s-early 1960s possession and exorcism of an unidentified woman in rural Italy that formed the basis of the 1963 Italian film "Il Demonio" which features the original "spider walk" echoed ten years later in The Exorcist.
There has never been a movie more scary before or after the exorcist.
About to go trick or treating in like 25 minutes. Gotta get the spooky vibes going.
Thank you this was very helpful and informative 👍👍
I first seen this movie in about 1999 and still have occasional nightmares. The make up and og effects are to this day untouchable. It truly is a cinema masterpiece.
I'd love to see a video on the "Strigoi" from the tv show "The Strain"
About 15 years ago Blatty contacted me to find out information about his great-uncle. He wanted to find out about how his uncle was connected to the Catholic Church. His uncle was a Melkite Archbishop. The Melkite Church is one of the 25 Churches [the Roman Church is the largest] that makeup the Catholic Communion of Churches. I put him in contact with his Grace Eparch [Bishop] Nicholas [Samra] who is now the Eparch of Newton, which is the Melkite Eparchy [Diocese] here in the United States.
We talked about how as Lebanese Christians we had heard about Pazuzu from our sitdos [grandmothers] and the horrors he would bring to people who did not follow a Godly path.
The reason that he emailed me was that I was very active on the net educating folks about Eastern Christians from the Middle East.
Brilliant video. 💯💪🏽
Excellent presentation! Interestingly, there was a Japanese fantasy film released in 1968 called " Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare" that features the exact scenario as "The Exorcist" . Namely, some archeologists in Irag exploring an ancient temple unwittingly release an archaic demon. Only in this film, the demon flies to Japan and posseses a benevolent samurai lord.
The one dislike is pazuzu
Could you do the demons and angels of constantine??
The Exorcist is a true masterpiece. The scariest film. I love it. Thanks for explaining the demon to us. Merry Christmas.
I really loved this one . You thinking about doing any for The Paranormal series ?
3:06 "he enjoyed the height of his popularity" damn so even in b.c demons were all about the clout too lmao
There are NO "far scarier films that have been made since" The Exorcist. That's pretty much a fact. Also, Pazuzu was known as a demon of the wind and there are many references to this fact which ppl don't pick up on; the sounds of loud wind gusts in the attic as Chris MacNeil checks on her sleeping daughter at the beginning of the film, the wind that blows out Chris's candle in the attic, the flying objects in Regan's room just prior to the crucifix mutilation scene and the billowing curtains during the exorcism scene.
@YoungD3mon314 Insidious is a solid movie for sure but if you think it's scarier or better than The Exorcist then you might need a head examination.
It doesn't hold up. The Grudge was superior to this movie. In the scare factor and various other ways when delivering their scares. I saw this movie when I was about 9 or 10. Didn't scare me, but bored me and then made me laugh when she kept telling her mom to "fuck me. Fuck me!" and "Lick me, lick me!!!!" some weird shit to the priest. Not at all scary or terrifying.
But. Perhaps it's a movie that you must view as your first horror movie before anything else.
Most horror films are scarier than this, there is nothing scary about it. just like any other exorcism movies.
@YoungD3mon314 BULLSHIT
The art work is on point.
Thank u fot the well researched video...
Seems like demons are a interest to you so maybe consider doing a video on the Demons in the Supernatural universe, the Princes of Hell are a good topic or you could do a video on the angels and demons in the Diablo game, lots of content there
Read the petite Albert.

Yes! That would be awesome! Crowley is the name of a real demon. We all know Lucifer is Satan. At least most of us do, but there are a few who don't know.

Hey hey I got an idea for a explanation video, a video on the mysterious and enigmatic person who does these videos for this channel 😁

Yeah, at least he got through his own ideas of the "facts" in an English accent helps a lot! Those American accents do my head in! Sorry, but it's true!
@@melanieshepherd8443 I agree with you 😁 I'm American and sometimes our accents sound pretty idiotic especially when we try to "explain" things on fun stuff like this 🙂
Heyo!! I had a quick suggestion🤪 btw I love your videos and I’m trying to watch all of them!! The name of the movie is The Frankenstein Theory
Great video.
In one of the episodes of John Constantine, he actually invites the demon Pazuzu to his body..........that was one of the best episodes
King Slayer fuck yeah i love that episode.
"I know there are far scarier movies that have been made since"
Name one.
Edit: this comment was already made almost word for word. Yet no scarier movies were named. I wonder what the video creator had in mind. I have yet to find a movie thats even AS SCARY before or after .
The Thing is a serious contender honestly. Different kind of fear but fear nonetheless.
The Thing
It won’t really matter, because you’re not going to change your mind no matter what people say
Man! Luv ur videos
Between 4:44 and 4 :46 there is a brief flash of a face on the hood of the exhaust over the stove , mid screen to the right.
I just caught that . It reminded me of fight club when Brad was explaining images cut into films that people barely notice lol.
Stay Humble and focused. Banishing and being feared by a presence like that would build a reputation. Which is inherently not bad. But if your Ego is built up to the degree of Pshh. I beat him before! You're showing your weakness.
Today I begin to pray Maria that I set her picture the wallpaper of my smartphone.
Great video, man your channel is so awesome! A question: Have you ever explained 1982 Poltergeist? its one of the best horror movies to my opinion....
Poltergeist is more of a cartoon thrill-ride.
This is a Halloween staple on my home network and one of the five main ones I save to watch every Halloween night.
What movies "are scarier" than The Exorcist..? I sure as Hell haven't seen them.
HardRockMiner ummm The Conjuring maybe or Anabelle.
Crossroads starring Britney Spears. I'm still traumatised.
@@SirHaroldMaguire - Lmao!! Yeah good call. I blocked that one out completely... until now😳
Hereditary is one to check out.
The SHINING! (1980)
And yet somehow professor farnsworth found out how to befriend him and Tame him even put him through college.
Would it be ok if you add updates to this video featuring the new Exorcist tv series? I really want to know how everything rolls into one timeline
This was rented for me for a sleepover in the 6th grade. I had never heard of the movie nor knew a single thing about it. Let’s just say I was terrified to even see a clip of the movie for the next 20+ years! Thanks mom!
