MOVIES: Special screenings — an excellent night for an ‘Exorcist’ revival
September 23, 2010 - 4:00 am
Halloween's more than a month away, but there's a Sept. 30 screening that'll get your head spinning. (Figuratively speaking, of course.)
It's a one-night screening of the 1973 horror classic "The Exorcist" — or, more precisely, the extended director's cut, featuring on-the-set footage and interviews with director William Friedkin (an Oscar-winner for "The French Connection"), author William Peter Blatty and actress Linda Blair — who plays the little girl in desperate need of the title exorcism.
More than 450 movie theaters nationwide will participate in the "Exorcist" revival — including Cinemark's Orleans, Sam's Town, Santa Fe Station and South Point multiplexes and Regal Cinemas' Aliante, Boulder Station, Colonnade, Fiesta, Red Rock, Sunset Station, Texas Station and Village Square locations.
