Exorcist II: The Heretic

“It's four years later... What does she remember?”

Premium Crap. CrapScore 76, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
An experimental device allows investigators to share visions, giving a possession sequel unexpected science-fiction ambitions. The solemn performances, locust imagery and elaborate spiritual explanations produce an extravagant tangle that is often fascinating for reasons the filmmakers probably did not intend.
