The Final Girls is one of my all time favorite slasher films, so I’ll always make an effort to watch anything that involves Joshua John Miller and M.A. Fortin.
The Exorcism? I’m actually optimistic about this one. Some fourth wall breaking, with Chloe Bailey mentioning strange occurrences on the sets for The Omen and The Exorcist, and how all the weird events will obviously play a role in Russell Crowe’s possession. I wonder how far they’ll go with the movie within a movie approach, because the trailer clearly shows a strong effort.
There’s a lot of material to work with here. Crowe having to fight his personal demons. How he’s seemingly possessed by the forces surrounding the movie, and well, you get the feeling he’s a burnt out has-been actor, who had to take this role because he’s out of options. That’s a big cliche. Still, the positives in the trailer outweigh the negatives. I’m just really hoping they don’t go overboard with the zany theatrics for the exorcism finale.
