Writer/director David Gordon Green thrilled audiences with his reboot of Halloween. Now, he does it again inviting us back into the world of the 1973 classic The Exorcist with The Exorcist: Believer. Fifty years have passed since Ellen Burstyn’s character, Chris Macneil, came face to face with the devil after her daughter, Regan, became possessed. The demons are back this time attacking two young girls in the woods. Leslie Odom Jr (Hamilton) stars as Victor Fielding, a single dad raising his teenage daughter, Angela (Jewett). He’s a photographer trying to give the best life he can for Angela given his wife died in childbirth. Angela and her best friend Catherine ( O’Neill) go out into the woods one afternoon after school and return three days later. It only gets worse for both girls after they seem to be possessed by some evil spirit. Victor turns to Chris Macneil who may be the only person who can deliver the help he needs. In theaters
