    NOTE: In the video i am not suggesting that The Exorcist Believer HAS to be PG13 in order to be successful. I am merely suggesting a hard PG13 rating (because of the letdowns of countless R rated Exorcism films over the decades), COULD be a safer approach to success (because of whats at stake) wherein a heavy focus on the psychological would take centre stage and avoiding the temptation of modern tropes and pitfalls an R rated story of this kind and subgenre often presents. The ideal is the best of both worlds but...can it be done? We're about to find out this October.

    Needed to be rated R unless you didn’t want the demon to cuss at all.

      Well, you can get away with 2-3 f-bombs, a couple of shit's/bull shits,& even a few bitches & still be counted as a PG-13 movie...🤔 Now, once there is a any sexual reference it automatically counts as rated R.But, as long as it is just cursing it can slide. (PG-13)

      @kevindustin396 Před 11 měsíci

      @jakebiomask so the point of the exorcist is to make it rated R? lol. If The Exorcism of Emily Rose had been a sequel to The Exorcist back in 2005, people would have loved it, and that's a PG13 film and considered by many to be most like the Exorcist in its creep and mature grounded reality.
      Stop using the R rating as a security blanket that somehow makes you think the movie will be good.

    • @jakebiomask
      @jakebiomask Před 11 měsíci +1

      @kevindustin396 lmao. I never said the movie would be good, but it would definitely be worse if it was PG13. And no, if The Exorcism of Emily Rose was a sequel to The Exorcist people would have been far harsher on it. That's what happens when you make a sequel to the GOAT. And Exorcist III is way better than that anyway.

    • @kevindustin396
      @kevindustin396 Před 11 měsíci

      @jakebiomask The overall point that Dave was making, was that what makes the Exorcist great has nothing to do with the rated R material and imagery, and everything to do with the fundamental themes and psychological storytelling, which builds insidious tension. The documentary style filmmaking creates a sense of relism, which helps the movie feel "real".
      You take all those things out of The Exorcist and the film would not be the beloved film it is today.
      A hard PG13 rating is absolutely possible to deliver an exceptional followup. And since the expectations are so high, and (as you mentioned) impossible to create a satisfying sequel, maybe that's the better way to go. That was Dave's point. Deliver a solid, creepy and exceptional moody and scary film, because the rated R stuff won't have the same impact on audiences today. We're too desensitized.

  • @b.z.7618

    The best parts of the original are the dynamics, internal struggles and external relationships, of Damian Karras. His relationship with his mom is one of the more powerful acting performances in a horror movie that I can recall. I would prefer they make a movie for adults and not teenage boys; with less emphasis on creative kills and more emphasis on psychology.

    The most promising thing to me out of the trailer is the demon make up... I think its the coolest "possessed" make ups I've seen SINCE the original Exorcist. I can't help but be optimistic. The bit in the trailer where the possessed girl is saying "God played a trick on you" is particularly promising. I thought the demon voice sounded great in that bit too... Unlike the Church scene... That was probably the most corny part of the trailer I thought.

    I agree with many of the films you mentioned.
    There was a pg13 phase a while back and I’m glad the pendulum has sung back, but outside that I don’t mind a good pg13 flick as long as it’s made well.
    Enjoy your outlook bro and content!

    • @Frankenberry
      @Frankenberry Před 11 měsíci

      If it can just stand up to Exorcist 3... I'll be happy. And to be honest, in contrast to all the talk I've heard, I really thought the trailer looks great. That of course doesn't mean the movie will be good... We've seen a lot of great "trailers" that turn out to be Crap movies. I'm cautiously optimistic though off the trailer.

    Not related to the topic at all but I’d love to know how many calories you burn a video 😂 Your energy is awesome 🔥 also, I agree with the desensitization to the demonic possession films currently. Even if the new film is GREAT, I think the original Exorcist is a product of it’s time and that’s why it was so shocking and monumental. It was the founding father of this genre. Thank you for mentioning The Exorcism of Emily Rose - everything about that movie was CORRECT. Do you remember the website they made for that?!

  • @LoriWolfcat
    @LoriWolfcat Před 11 měsíci

    The grudge, Sixth Sense, The Ring, Exorcism of Emily Rose, were “scary movies,” and I thought it was really cool, but lacked what true scares have, actual danger. A Quiet Place attempted this, but it was more suspenseful, only showed it twice, once per movie. And I don’t know why, because Edge of Tomorrow, they killed loads of aliens and other people. I think Exorcism movies Should be R because demons wouldn’t be right if they were downrated. Exorcism of Emily Rose was scary I guess, but I always found it weird for the “demon” to just stand their and take the exorcist. Not truly fighting back, even tho she had 6 demons in her. Just make it R for the Real scary movies. The point of true terror is there are No borders. The exorcist felt real, like a demon would’ve been like that. The Pope’s Exorcist was also a really good scare. I actually couldn’t watch it for a little while after. And that’s exactly what terror should do.

  • @aaronclick6388
    @aaronclick6388 Před 11 měsíci

    Dave, I agree with you about what this movie needs to be a good Exorcist movie. But i do think those things COUPLED with the R rated content, increases the likeliness that this new movie will be more in-line with the original. It was the fact that the cinematography, the slow documentary style, character driven story was juxtaposed with creepy and shocking R rated content that helped create that jarring (in a good way) effect on audiences, in regards to the original. I’m not saying that it’s essential for this new one to be R rated, but I do believe it may help to create those higher highs and more subtle low, calm moments.

    The fact that sixth sense was pg 13 and shown the back of the ghosts head blown off was so horrific as a kid seeing it but I find pg- 13 often has great build up . Exactly I always use exorcism of Emily rose 🌹 the stories structure is incredible. Court room drama definitely benefited from it . One pg 13 movie I didn’t get was alien vs predator do to all other movie’s previous were R but then again it wasn’t bodily harm it was aliens battling .

    People are fed up with all these horror films being not gory not horror and toned down. If your doing horror then do it right and make it rated R look how evil dead 2013 remake done it as a horror yes it was rate R and was so good for it. Yes insidious 1 and 2 also the conjuring 1 and 2 was amazing films done very well as a supernatural film and the scare factor but none of them had gore or swearing nudity that's why it didn't needed to be rated R

  • @alexlebon6456
    @alexlebon6456 Před 11 měsíci

    Lemme know your thoughts...A good example of a hard PG-13 (in modern times) is Happy Death Day/2 U
    These movies have just enough "adult" themes/language to make it "not lame" 🙄.It actually feels like an R movie, I think that they got away with quite a bit (including nudity even if its just an ass shot) so I know for a fact that you can still have a good movie (especially for teens) & have it still be somewhat "graphic". 🤷🏼‍♂️

  • @Frankenberry
    @Frankenberry Před 11 měsíci +2

    I get your point... but truthfully out of all them pg-13 movies you mentioned... the only one I'd say was great... and might be a "classic" some day is Insidious. Certain genres just NEED that R rating in order to deliver what the audience expects... Imagine the changes that would have to be made to make a movie like "Hostel", or "Hereditary", were rated PG-13? Would they still be the same visceral experience? I don't think they really would... And theres no QUESTION that "The Exorcist" would be a different movie if it were rated PG-13

  • @PeeWeeHermit
    @PeeWeeHermit Před 11 měsíci

    The answer will always be no in every single context. The MPAA has fucking ruined so many classic films and films that now have superior director's cuts. The only way to hit the audience hard and get them on board is to fuck them up, and with an R rating, you can do that. With PG-13, you cannot.
