One of the most buzzed-about horror films of the year, The Exorcist: Believer, is now streaming on Peacock. I’ve been eagerly waiting to see it for myself. Now I have. The movie has been getting mixed reviews. But is it bad or good? Let’s talk about it. First, I will state the obvious: ANY film/sequel compared to the original Exorcist will always fall short. That’s just a fact. In my opinion, William Friedkin’s 1973 classic is the best horror film ever made. It’s perfect, and that is incredibly rare. The Exorcist 3 may be an exception to that, though. It’s brilliant. But those aren’t the movies we’re here to talk about. So, what is The Exorcist: Believer about? In the film, “Since his wife’s death, Victor (Leslie Odom Jr.) has raised his daughter Angela (Lidya Jewett) alone. After Angela and her friend (Olivia O’Neill) return from a three-day disappearance with missing memories, they begin displaying frightening behavior. Victor’s best hope
