The Exorcist (1973) Film Screening

Fifty years ago William Friedkin adapted William Peter Blatty’s novel The Exorcist into a full length feature film and turned the world of religious horror on its head. The Exorcist remains a cultural touchstone half a century after its release and created not only room for further films dealing with supernatural religious horror, but also inspired generations of exorcists off the silver screen. We invite you to a screening of this classic in preparation for two dedicated panels the following day.
