I'm a little surprised that a thread hasn't opened up yet, so here it is.

If you're a fan of the Exorcist films (1 & 3) then this film will not disappoint you. However saying that, the film does present opportunities for the Wayan's bros. in developing their next spoofreal Scary Movie sequel. Once you've seen the film you'll know what I'm talking about (towards the end in the tunnel with Father M. & child and the demon).

The only other thing that sorta threw me is the connection to the original (presumably the demon is the same ie. how it came to possess a little girl in an urban setting far far away from its origins), so maybe there is another movie to fill the gap. Regardless, it's worth a see, not overly 'scary' for those not too fond of horror films, but has enough of the original exorcist elements that made it a classic.

FYI, there should be some connection to the original movie, because in the original the demon speaks Merrin's name before Merrin arrives at Regan's house.

Right, I do know that, I edited my post to add a little more, but maybe its just following poor Merrin around - I guess that could be possible.
