Exorcist II: The Heretic Storyline

Dr. Gene Tuskin works with troubled children, perhaps none more troubled than Regan MacNeil, who suffers from bad dreams and repressed memories. The memories she represses are of the time she was possessed by a demon. Dr. Tuskin’s invention, a device that hypnotizes two persons and links their minds together, reveals that the demon, named Pazuzu, still lurks within her. It is desperate to emerge again and wreak havoc. Meanwhile, Father Philip Lamont is ordered by his cardinal to investigate the death of Father Merrin, the priest who died while performing an exorcism on Regan. Father Lamont undertakes his task reluctantly. He feels unworthy of his assignment. He also feels that Evil is literally an entity and that this entity is winning the battle over Good. His investigation takes him to Africa where he locates another recipient of Merrin’s exorcising and learns something fascinating and terrible about locusts.

Exorcist II: The Heretic Movie Reviews

I don’t care what’s people think! This is good

Exorcist II:The Heretic is the sequel to worlds famous film The Exorcist which takes place four years after The Exorcist and explores Regan who know goes to Doctor Tuskin who is curious about what she remembers after the disturbing exorcism performed four years earlier and soon,she finds out Pazzuzu is back from Hell ready to get in to Regan again and with the help of a priest and Regan’s guardian for now,they must all drive the demon back to Hell forever one more time! John Boorman is a director I don’t know much about except that he made the brilliant Deliverance and according to him,he didn’t actually like the first film(I hate him in a way for that)and he decided to make this(probably cause of all the money it made)and here I am..forty years after reviewing it. I think Exorcist 2 is good because it’s a very creative film and it has a bunch of new Hollywood actors and actresses such as James Earl Jones(Star Wars:TFA) and Richard Burton. One thing I loved about this,is the music,the music is some of the most peaceful and beautiful I’ve ever heard and Linda Blair also did a splendid return who even grew up to star in more movies such as Savage Streets,Repossessed and even,Scream! Exorcist 2 is very good!!

It’s a mess but it is fascinating.

Four years has passed… Regan MacNeil (Linda Blair) was possessed by an demon. There was an exorcism performed by Father Merrin (Max Von Sydow) and Father Karras (The late Jason Miller). Father Lamont (The late Richard Burton) lost his faith, after an failed exorcism. The Cardinal (The late Paul Henreid) is asking Father Lamont to investigated on the late Father Merrin on heresy charges due on his controversial writings. He decided to meet Regan, now is Seventeen years old. Regan is living with her guardian Sharon (Kitty Winn) and Regan is seeing an hypnotic research specialist (Oscar-Winner:Louise Fletcher). Father Lamont is trying to find out, what truly happened to Father Merrin but he slowly discovers that the Demon, who possessed Regan hasn’t truly left her body. He uncovers more of Father Merrin’s past, when he did his first exorcism in Africa on a little boy. He decides to meet the former possessed soul (James Earl Jones) and try to find out, if Father Merrin made any mistakes in his past. While Regan is slowly remembering her dark past.

Directed by John Boorman (Deliverance, Excalibur, Zardoz) made an strange, messy, horror film with some (unfortunely) unintentional laughs. Blair does her best, she looks cute in most of the movie but she isn’t an leading actress. The late Burton looks foolish at times with his unintentionally bad dialogue. Only Fletcher gives an memorable performance as an sympathetic doctor. This was an major box office disappointment, it was released in 1977. Which Boorman tried to re-cut the picture but it didn’t help.

DVD has an fine anamorphic Widescreen (1.78:1) transfer and an decent Dolby Digital 1.0 Mono Sound. DVD includes an Alternate Opening Sequence, an Teaser Trailer, Original Theatrical Trailer and Cast & Crew information. “The Exorcist 2:The Heretic” is a wild mess, it makes you wonder what Boorman and Screenwriter:William Goodhart original intentions were. Although this movie does an cult following. The biggest fan of “The Exorcist 2:The Heretic” is actually Oscar-Winning filmmaker:Martin Scorsese! This movie is best enjoyed with an open mind. The special effects does brings this movie to life at times but it is overdone by seeing Locusts on-screen, large or small. Which the feature looks pointless at times. (*** ½/*****).
