Exorcist II: The Heretic.

Such a disappointment. If they have to make unnecessary sequels, they could at least do it well. This was both unnecessary and poorly delivered. The story revolves a repressed sixteen year old Regan, a ludicrous invention joining peoples minds and warped origins of the Demon Pazuzu. But it’s laughable. Not least the dual hypnotisingmindbonding machine. James Earl Jones is embarrassing, Richard Burton is poor, the directorial tricks are straight out of a GCSE handbook and there isn’t actually a hint of horror in here. Add to that a complete lack of tension and you really can wonder what the point of it was…..Oh yes. Money. $14m to make and it took just over double that. Shame really, it simply doesn’t deserve it.
