Hilarious! So bad it's good!

John Boorman famously criticised the original movie for being about men torturing a young girl and it's clear from his clumsy analysis that he neither understood nor cared about the 'The Exorcist'. As a result he delivered this incompetently made, hilariously risible sequel. It's hard to know where to begin with what's wrong with it. Here are some highlights -

1. James Earl Jones, dressed as a giant locust.

2. Linda Blair, cheerily delivering the line 'I used to be possessed by a demon, but it's okay - he's all gone now!'. 3. The clumsy sci-fi 'mind meld' device which drives the plot whenever the screenwriters get too bored to explain how people know things. 4. Linda's tap-dance routine, no I'm not kidding. 5. The line, 'If Pazuzu comes for you, I will spit a leopard' - no, I don't know what it means either. I hope I've intrigued you enough to watch the film. While it fails completely in being either interesting or scary it's one of those car-wreck films that is so hilariously bad you won't be able to look away.
