This is also going to be on TCM tonight at 8pm eastern.
Followed by an airing of THE HERETIC itself! That’s a double feature that’d tide anybody over 'til the next Joe Bob.
This is getting a Blu-ray in the UK from Plumeria Pictures in December. Here are the bonus features, which will hopefully also appear on the U.S. release (confirmed but not yet announced).
After the success of Point Blank and Deliverance, Warner Brothers offered John Boorman the opportunity of a lifetime: the chance to direct a sequel to their smash hit, The Exorcist. The result was one of the biggest disasters in movie history. A critical and financial failure that not only changed how Hollywood did business but nearly ended Boorman’s filmmaking career… but to be an artist is to be a risk-taker. Now, John Boorman, Linda Blair, Louise Fletcher, Karyn Kusama, Joe Dante, Mike Flanagan, and more reflect back on the ambition of the film, the artistry and craft, and the value of big creative swings.
