Summary: At an archaeological dig in Africa, Father Lankester Merrin has his first encounter with the devil incarnate. Merrin has focused on archeology, rather than spiritual matters and is intrigued when a church buried beneath the sand is excavated. Inside, he finds many signs of devil worship. To a great extent, he has lost his faith and is particularly haunted by events during the Nazi occupation and the impact of his decisions had on his parishioners. When the devil occupies the body of a young patient in the village hospital, Merrin risks his life to save him. (imdb)

This is significantly more elegant, ambitious, and thoughtful than Harlin's prequel, and Skarsgard gives an effective performance. But in spite of all this, it's still pretty dull.

I kinda like this, but actually liked the theatrically released cut (Exorcist: The Beginning) better.

Surprisingly good movie about re-finding one's faith. The CGI though was atrocious, if you're only given 35k for special effects go practical idiots.

Painful acting, absurdly unrealistic CG, and utterly unfrightening sequencing - how did such a mid-high-budget movie skimp on the major constituent parts of a horror film?

A goofy finale, poor leading lady and special effects that wouldn't pass muster on a Sci-Fi channel production bring down what is an otherwise intelligent, well written good vs. evil tale.

This film is watchable but only the once, Stellan Skarsgard was good as the young Father Merrin. This does feel like it hasn't been completed the special effects are laughable. Although the storyline very similiar and alot of the actors the same this does pull it of better, and gives a good insight to Father Merrin's past

Makes sense if you're not looking to be scared. Which is really bad news if it has the Exorcist name on it, because both studio execs and audiences are going to assume (and you know what they say about assuming...). Deserves a rewatch by all as a spiritual coming-of-age tale abandoned by its purse-holders.
