When young Regan (Linda Blair) starts acting odd -- levitating, speaking in tongues -- her worried mother (El- len Burstyn) seeks medical help, only to hit a dead end. A local priest (Jason Miller), however, thinks the girl may be seized by the devil. The priest makes a request to perform an exorcism, and the church sends in an expert (Max von Sydow) to help with the difficult job. Directed by William Friedkin; Rat- ed: R; Runtime: 122 minutes; Ages 16+;Tickets are available online. Watch the trailer for The Exorcist NJ STAGE - ISSUE 51 INDEX NEXT ARTICLE 87
