     A young girl, that is possessed a demonic entity. After her and her family moved into a new home. The force that possessed the young girl was a previous owner, who lived in the house before but die of terrible. Before she was possessed, she senses that she was not alone in the house, especially in the basement. One night, she heard footstep in the hallway, she got up to check the hallway. There was nobody in the hallway while walking back to her room, she got attacked. The demons possessed her and her family hired a priest to summon the demon away. 
     A 12 years old girl is represented in The Exorcist. She has been possessed by a demon, she wasn’t herself. The demon started controlling and changing the person she was. No one knows why the demon decided to possess a young girl. The mother was worried about her daughter, so she hired two priests, to try and remove the demon. The two priests perform an exorcism a couple of time on her. It was difficult but in the end, the two priests did. 
     The poster of the movie is dark and mysterious, it shows a man in front of a house and there is light coming from a window. It was mostly dark throughout the house and the movie. The movie was based on a true story, some horror movies are based on a true story. The Exorcist contains horrific scene and evil force, which possessed the young girl. Horror movies have spooky music before something happens. Yes, they are correct and fair these are some of the main points that are in horror movies. 
        The spooky music would the stay, along with the scene of the movie. Having a fear on the unusual such as doll, clown and demons. I would challenged the characters, instead of being mostly young adults or children, it would be an older person. The characters personality and the plot of the scene would be different. The demon would be attached to the person instead of being in the house. I would also challenged the suspense in the movie, I would not make any scene obvious for the audience.
