William Friedkin’s supernatural horror movie truly terrified moviegoing audiences at the time, with entire generations of moviegoers having nightmares about Linda Blair’s Regan.
The original Exorcist movie hit theaters back in 1973 and changed the film world and horror genre forever.
The franchise went on to have a few less successful sequels, but the original has a special place in movie history, even being welcomed to the National Film Registry in 2010.
