Mike Flanagans Exorcist Movie Hoping to Make the Scariest of of Modern Times

Mike Flanagan is getting ready to premiere his latest Stephen King adaptation at TIFF next month, and next hell be looking to breathe new life into The Exorcist franchise for what he hopes will be the 'scariest movie of the time.' Flanagan is set to take over the series at Blumhouse following the dismal response to The Exorcist: Believer in 2023, and the subsequent exit of director David Gordon Green. Despite the appearance of original star Ellen Burstyn and a surprise cameo by Regan herself, Linda Blair, the film failed to connect with both audiences and critics, and currently holds just a 22% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
