John Boorman (director of the boring overrated Deliverance) hated the original. So if Warner Brtothers wanted to cash in on the originals success, why did they choose a director for the sequel that hated the first one?? And why would Boorman want to do it? Did he think he could make a better movie?? What was his motivation to make this pretentious crap?? Screw you John Boorman for ever making this unbeliavably lousy movie!! This is not a movie about excorsism, its not even a horror movie. And the acting, the lines and the music is awful. The plot makes no sense what so ever. Nothing ever happens.
Instead of Reagan being possessed once again or a whole new cast we get a dumb boring story about an investigation of what really happened to Father Merrin when he exorcised the deamon in the original. As it is told in the very beginning he was killed by the deamon so why an investigation is even needed is one of the many Things that makes no sense in this movie. During this investigation the moronic Father Lamont asdsigned to investigate, travels to Africa who is apparently one big desert and we get some bogus story about grasshoppers who represents the fight between good and evil on some philosophical symbolic level. And it's all connected to Reagan. Yes it really is that stupid. Appaerently Reagan is in great danger, but apart from acting like a retarded 5 year old, Reagan is perfectly fine and healthy. But Lamont thinks he needs to save her from this deamon who is never possessing her once during the entire movie. At the end there are two physical Reagans, a possessed one and a normal one. Give me a break!! John Boorman (that arrogant British jerk) should have been forced to apologize for making not just one of the worst movies ever made, but the worst sequel ever made because it has got nothing to do with the original.
