ALTERNATE SYNOPSIS:
One of the most notorious films in the exorcism genre, "Exorcism" has the legendary horror actor Paul Naschy in an atypical good-guy role as a priest who must battle powerful demonic forces and cure an ailing young woman who is rapidly turning into a repulsive and profane ogre. Behind the film's visual cornucopia of nightmare possession and satanic orgies is a subtly crafted message about moral excess and familial dysfunction in modern society. A huge hit in Spain upon its theatrical release, "Exorcism" has both terrified and delighted viewers ever since. |
