What Is The Exorcist: Believer’s Story?

Just like the original film, all the Exorcist titles so far solely focus on rescuing a possessed figure (usually a young girl) from a demonic spirit. The Exorcist: Believer will be a tad bit different, since this time the priests will have to save not one, but two possessed damsels in distress.

Two young girls from two different families, Angela and Catherine, all got possessed by a mysterious demon, and Chris MacNeil has to once again face the otherworldly beings to save them. The two trailers have already shown several gruesome scenes that remind us of the 1973 classic. Blum has this to say about the movie in an interview:

“I want to make a movie that works for both [audiences]. I want to make a movie for people that know and love the first Exorcist and are furious that we’re doing this, but somehow drag themselves to the theater. I want them to come out happy. And I want to make a movie that people who’ve never heard of The Exorcist really enjoy. I think David did that with Halloween. I think he’ll do that with The Exorcist also.”
