The Exorcist

This is a GRITTY and teeth clenching series that will make you think and feel that terror inside. Better than the latest big screen prequels BY FAR...and it doesn't shy away from incredible religious aspects that make some uncomfortable...yet doesn't promote religion. It is not shy about wryly criticizing the politics within the church while focusing on the good individual men, women, priests, nuns, etc who aren't afraid to defy said church (under threat of serious personal and spiritual consequence). I think it frames the truth of demonic possession along with everyday lives of normal people fairly well. Call it science fiction, horror or whatever you want....the show is certainly not afraid to push the boundaries of individual, societal and religious beliefs while providing an incredibly complex story line that is as good as any suspense thriller! Just one thing FOX Network....move the show to a better night than Friday!

When they remake a movie it generally sucks, even more so when they try to televise probably the most loved horror movie of all time. Fox finally got it right, I'm a huge fan of horror and have seen pretty much every single title that has anything remotely scary in it. Special mentions to the original exorcist, the exorcism of Emily rose and the conjuring the unholy trinity of horror movies in my book.

Just like the Omen which has now been made into a series i was worried for the exorcist but I was pleasantly surprised. The casting is excellent the conflicted priest, the exorcist whose having a crisis of faith. I won't give away the twist but it is quite entertaining.

They haven't let us down so far in my opinion the pilot gives you just enough to make you definitely come back for another episode and hey what more can you ask for from a pilot, i enjoyed it so much it became my first ever review on IMDb.

Nowdays there is plenty options to watch some good TV show but The Exorcist is really in top 10, specially in this genre. Why for god sake and ours :) they canceled the show!?? This is really depressing and not right. :((

Great show, nothing else quite like it at the moment and such a shame that Fox has wielded the axe on a promising asset once again. I think i'll Boycott Fox shows in future to save myself the disappointment when they inevitably axe it.

I can not believe that Fox cancelled this beautiful tv show :(
