Coffee Chat of Horrors: The Exorcist Autopsy
13Coffee Chat of Horrors: The Exorcist Autopsy. Welcome my creepies today we will be giving an autopsy to the film The Exorcist. Have you seen this amazing film from 1973?
THE EXORCIST is based off a real life event. William Peter Blatty wrote his 1971 novel of the same name based on the real life exorcism of a boy known through the pseudonym as Roland Doe. Catholic Priests at Georgetown University Hospital performed the real life exorcism, but had to stop when the boy managed to get free from his restraints, pull a bed spring out of his mattress, and slash one of the priest’s arms. When Blatty wrote the novel, Roland’s family requested the character be changed to a girl in order to protect the boy’s identity. Roland went on to live a normal life with no memory of the incident retiring decades later from NASA.
The original shooting schedule was 85 days, but filming in America lasted for 224 days. Producers sought to have Jamie Lee Curtis audition for the role of Regan MacNeil but her mother Janet Leigh refused.
The original teaser trailer, which consisted of nothing but images of the white-faced demon quickly flashing in and out of darkness, was banned in many theatres, as it was deemed "too frightening".
