Line 5:
== The Exorcist Film Series In General ==
* [[I Am Not Spock]]: Linda Blair.
== The Exorcist (Filmfilm) ==
* [[Billing Displacement]]: [[Max von Sydow only]] appears in the movie during the prologue and the last twenty minutes, but is billed second, despite Jason Miller and Linda Blair's characters being the main focus of the film. The reason for this error is likely because von Sydow was already well known, and Miller and Blair were screen newcomers.
* [[Enforced Method Acting]]: Many times. The director was kind of a wingnut about that.
** Special mention must go to the shot where Ellen Burstyn is "thrown" by Regan across the room and her back hits the tallboy. Burstyn to be forcibly thrown and dragged with a wire harness, giving her a spinal injury that's plagued her her whole life. Her scream of pain is real.
Line 23:
** Test audiences wanted someone from the original film to appear, so they hired {{spoiler|Jason Miller}} and reshot the Patient X scenes. In ''this'' case, it worked, since there was a clear division between The Gemini Killer and {{spoiler|Father Karras}}.
== Exorcist: The Beginning ==
* [[Executive Meddling]]: Took place to a savage degree with [[Paul Schrader]]'s original cut, which was entirely junked by the studio and refilmed from scratch by Renny Harlin.
== Dominion: Prequel To The Exorcist ==
* [[The Shelf of Movie Languishment]]: It eventually got released one year after Harlin's version.
