Es bueno que William Peter Blatty haya tomado un camino completamente diferente y que El exorcista III se sostenga por sí mismo sin las ataduras de la primera película. Así se pretendía al principio. George C. Scott es un gran atractivo y toda la película se apoya prácticamente en su carisma. Blatty consigue filmar algunas escenas de terror realmente impresionantes: la secuencia cuidadosamente construida en el pasillo del hospital es un punto culminante de la película. Sin embargo, el director también tenía la costumbre de no ser capaz de desprenderse completamente de su yo escritor y dejar que los personajes recitaran monólogos y reflexiones filosóficas tediosamente largos, de modo que la trama original se desvanece y desaparece entre ellos. Luego, cuando se añade la intervención del estudio y se pega todo el argumento con Nicole Williamson y el exorcismo, el espectador se pierde sólidamente en él. Hubiera sido perfectamente feliz si esta película no tuviera nada que ver con El exorcista y se llamara Legión, de acuerdo con su tema. Tal vez entonces más espectadores encontrarían el camino hacia ella.

Quite a superb sequel that doesn't dull the events of the first one and chaotically rape them like the second film, but cleverly develops them in a neo-detective framework. The only thing that doesn't work so well for Blatty as a writer and director, namely the pacing, is made up for by perhaps all the remaining horror attributes – the atmosphere of the setting (in this case mainly a mental hospital), the convincing actors and the inventive staging in the form of a series of often symbolic shots. Some scenes, like the one in the confessional booth, surprise even today with their creativity and even black-humour dimension, and when it comes to explicit horror moments, it's both period and timeless genre gold. I'm talking about the gore effects at the end, and then the film's biggest scare, which is probably truly the best 'jump-scare' in cinema history – if I hadn't heard about it beforehand and knew approximately when it was coming, I'd probably shit myself. A very nice surprise that isn't so much spoiled by the slower final act and a couple of overdone moments that want to compete with William Friedkin's symbolism somewhat awkwardly. An absolute must for horror fans just for the brilliant static sequence in the hospital corridor, when the director really prepares us like a pig for slaughter. 80 %

A surprisingly good film that certainly doesn't put the original to shame (unlike the second one). Story-wise, it's a bit of a combination of The Exorcist and The Medusa Touch, but who cares when George C. Scott is so great and the atmosphere is so cool!

Where Richard Burton fails, George C. Scott excels and shows how great of an actor he was. But it's also given by the fact that this film has a much more interesting screenplay than the sequel. This is a story that will interest and scare you. That's a very good thing. The series has gained a new shine that isn't very dull. But you mustn't expect something similar to the first film. This is different and I'm glad for it.
