Sellout October: The Exorcist (1973)

Greg, Eric and Dan Episode 131

This week we continue the spooky season Sellout October tradition by finally covering one of the greatest horror films ever made. The boys are joined by returning guest Patrick Blanchfield to navigate a wealthy family's decent into hell and eventual treatment by a priest who's lost his faith. We deep dive into the making of the film, discuss just how much of himself William Blatty left in his script, marvel at the sometimes-brutal madness of William Friedkin, and show nothing but the utmost respect for the Catholic Church. OK, one of these things isn't true and I'll leave that to you to figure out.
