00:08In 1975, Academy Award-nominator-direktor John Borman wurde von der Möglichkeit für ein Leben geöffnet,
00:15zu directe eine Sequel zu der Blockbuster film, The Exorcist.
00:19Borman's follow-up war enorm ambitie, und hatte den größten Budget in Warner Bros. history.
00:24And on June 17, 1977, Exorcist II, The Heretic, opened to sold-out theaters across the country.
00:33It was one of the biggest disasters in Hollywood history.
00:36David Lean said to me once, he said, John, you know, we all make failures. Try not to make a
00:41famous one.
00:42And this became one of the most famous failures of all time.
00:55To make a sequel is a radical thought.
00:58Amen.
00:59If you think that I wanted anything to do with that, you would be wrong.
01:02So we read the script. It's really good.

01:54It almost killed him, this movie, and I blamed it all on the devil.
02:03You're not a masochist, are you?
02:05I suppose I must be, you know, otherwise I wouldn't be making movies.
02:08Not be fair.
02:08That's just how I did a clip.
