"The Exorcist III"

Why do you like the third installment more than the original classic?

Good question.

1) The way it is directed first off. I just like the way the story is told visually. The way some of the shots mixed with the soundtrack had much more of an horror impact on me then the possessed little girl did.

2) Gorge C. Scott and Brad Dourif at their best!

3) IMHO, III contains of of the scariest moments in motion picture history. And, I'm not going to spoil it for the people who have not yet seen the film.

4) The more psychological angle of the story.

5) The writing and acting of a great dead pan support cast.

6) Fabio is in it.

Even with it's flaws, it's a movie I can re-watch at almost any time. Whereas with the first Exorcist, I would need to be in a certain type of mood to sit through all of it. The first film is a good movie, but for my tastes, it tends to lag at points. I'm also not as fond of the cast in that one. Mostly the players in the supporting roles.
