Description

In this episode, hosts Katherine Troyer and Anthony Tresca discuss the 1973 film The Exorcist.
 
Episode Highlights: Katherine talks about the home in American horror, Anthony shares the extreme responses to the film when it was originally released, and we discuss how we can appreciate the film without enjoying it.
 
A Dose of Scholarship: There is so much great scholarship on The Exorcist; however, we recommend checking out Tony Williams' Hearths of Darkness: The Family in the American Horror Film. This book discusses the many horror films, including The Exorcist, that have shown us why we should fear for--and be afraid of--the American family.
