This film traumatized me as a kid. One of my irresponsible babysitters let me watch this when I was about 8 years old.
I honestly did not sleep flat on my back for a decade. No lie. My little boy brain logic said that the demon can’t flop me around like he did to her if I was on my side. True Story.
This came from an age in cinema where movies would scare you without all the shock and gore.
This special edition BluRay Collector’s set will be released on October 5th this year. Just in time for you to unleash it on some unsuspecting 8 year old.
