First time I saw the Exorcist was when I was really young, must have
been about nine. didn't quite get what the film was about then but
remembered nearly wetting myself... and ya my parent used to let me
stay up and watch TV till quite late while they did something else...

Next time I saw the film was when I was 15-16 didn't thing it was
scary but thought it was cool cos there was nothing like it about. I
love all the occult stuff, not that I'm a goth or anything. thought
the vomit scene and the scene with the crusifix was hilarious. can't
believe they got the girl to do it though that could've seriously
disturbed her.

funniest thing was in 2000, a mate went to see the uk re-release. he
came back and was too scared to sleep on his own so he slept on my
floor, and he was like 19...
