Jason Blum, known for his work on successful horror films such as "Get Out," "The Purge" and "M3GAN," produces The Exorcist: Believer through Blumhouse Productions, which promises to raise the level of horror and suspense even higher. The film opens on Friday, October 6 in the United States. The plot revolves around the parents of demon-possessed girls, desperate for help, who embark on a desperate search to find the only person alive who has had similar experiences: Chris MacNeil.
As for the post-credits scenes "The Exorcist: Believer" doesn't have one that reveals hidden secrets or intriguing clues. The film relies on its story and its ability to scare us without the need for an additional epilogue. In the age of modern cinema, moviegoers have become accustomed to staying in their seats even after the lights come up and the credits start rolling. This habit has become something of a ritual, thanks to Marvel and DC movies that have surprised us with additional scenes, often revealing clues about future installments of their film sagas.
But what happens when a movie doesn't belong to the superhero genre? What happens when there's no post-credits scene waiting to dazzle us and leave us with intrigue? Such is the case with "The Exorcist: Believer". Although some viewers have come to anxiously await a surprise scene after the credits, this horror film reminds us that not all productions follow this pattern. Part of a planned trilogy, this film chooses to keep us on edge until the end of the main film, without giving away any tantalizing glimpses of what comes next.
On the other hand, the film has not delighted critics as it so far holds a 24% score. Let's wait and see what the audience says.
