Reread the book after many years

Holy smokes the writing of the final rites scene with Fr. Dyer and Fr. Karras is really quite beautiful. Found myself getting choked up and moved to tears in a way I didn’t during the film.

Love that they cast the role of Fr. Dyer with a real priest (his interviews about the making of the film are great!)

Weird statue outside the priest's office Exorcist III

In the Exorcist III there's a scene that always confused me. The spooky looking statue smiling and holding a knife seems very out of place for a priest's rectory. Just a stylistic choice by the director or what? I know that statues feature heavily in the movie (Jesus beheaded, or opening his eyes) but this one is extra strange.

Black and white version.

This might be a long shot, but I've watched a version of the exorcist in black and white, this version is actually different, idk if its a whole other movie, but the title did say " The exorcist"

It was this creepy version where there are still shots of cameras placed on the stairs where the possessed girl stood sometimes.

It has this vhs feel to it, with some segments sped up..

I remember a scene where one dude( maybe a doctor, i forgot) mentioned that the girl is hot and he would have sex with her, and later she haunts him on the stairs and maybe pushes him? Or breaks his ankles and he falls...i truly cant remember..

For the life of me i cant remember the name or is it even the same movie....

If any of you know which movie I'm talking about, please tell me the name or link it for me.

Thank you.

Update: thanks to u/victorluckluck 's comment, I was able to find the movie. It's Anneliese: the exorcist tapes.

huh??

okay. i did not expect THIS to be my first post on this sub, despite the fact im genuinely very fixated on this film & franchise ive honestly just been lurking and leaving a rare comment here and there . but yeah i need help with this one 😭

i was scrolling for the exorcist merch because i enjoy collecting it. and i found this official the exorcist card game, cool! so i go to check it out. and it seems fun but ??? in WHAT WORLD did sean s cunningham create the exorcist 😭?? and the film was from the early 70s, not the 80s??? im so confused, is the person who wrote this description from some strange parallel universe?? were they employed to write a description despite not knowing anything about the exorcist, so instead of googling it they just.. guessed? is it just a joke??

any possible explanation for this would be much appreciated , im genuinely curious
