Synopsis:
A girl is possessed by a demonic entity which resists all efforts at freeing her from its grasp. Only one priest has the inner strength to tackle it - but success in his nightmarish endeavour threatens to carry a high price. William Peter Blatty's controversial horror tale may have been aped endlessly, but still boasts some genuinely scary and claustrophobic moments, and Linda Blair shines as the imperilled youngster. Ellen Burstyn, Max von Sydow, Lee J Cobb and Jason Miller also star
