"Shudder" now has a new doc series called "Cursed Films" which focuses on mystery, tragedy, and accidents that happened on famous film sets. First episode up you guessed it was the devil of all horror films that being 1973's controversial picture "The Exorcist". Footage and interviews were shown with those involved and the doc showed the movie's impact on faith and how it blended with religion and culture. Biggest questions despite from terrifying film goers(as they even passed out and fainted during cinema showings) was the on set accidents. The strange and mysterious ranged from cast members losing family members and loved ones to death, plus an on set fire and even a cast extra was later arrested for murder. Interviewed are even real life priests who do believe in demonic forces as clips showed them doing real life casting of demons out of people. And mentioned is how this is a real thing that's always been around and since the film has become more in touch with life and pop culture. Linda Blair is interviewed telling how the film made her a household name and impacted her life. Overall good and informative with footage and revealing interviews that any horror film buff will love. With this first episode it was a real showcase on how the devil played a curse on the set of the classic "Exorcist".
