So… the movie scared the absolute sh*t out of me when I was a kid. I didn’t sleep soundly for weeks. As an adult I’ve delved deep into the horror genre of book reading. I’ve seen many posts recently singing the praises of the book version of the Exorcist, so I decided to jump in and give it a shot.
While it had its moments that made me uncomfortable, I didn’t find it all that scary. The vintage dialogue of some of the characters really ages the book and gave it a hokey feel to me. The extensive back story of the priest/psychologist had me losing interest.
Yes I read it sitting up at night by myself and slept like a baby.
Till next time.
