Body Snatchers: Parasitic Monsters in Film

The Exorcist (1973)

William Friedkin's The Exorcist is regarded as one of the most disturbing films to ever be made. In this film, a young girl named Regan becomes possessed by a demon after playing with a Ouija board. As she begins to act out, her mother takes her to several doctors, all of whom are unable to treat her. In the end, the girl's mother must beg a pair of Catholic priests to save her daughter, despite the church's ban on exorcism.
