Watch: The Exorcist III 1990 123movies, Full Movie Online – A seemingly endless series of grisly killings that bear the trademark of the mass murderer, the Gemini Killer, terrorise the district of Georgetown. To further complicate matters, even though it’s been seventeen long years since the killer’s execution and that fateful night of pure terror in The Exorcist (1973), the sceptical police officer, Lieutenant William F. Kinderman, is still obsessed with solving the baffling case, as the death toll keeps rising. In the meantime, in the city’s high-security psychiatric institution, a cryptic inmate who bears an uncanny resemblance to the late Father Damien Karras emerges from his deep catatonic state, claiming that he has all the answers Kinderman needs. But, who is the mysterious Patient X? Does the same unholy force that tormented Regan MacNeil have something to do with the brutal demonic murders?.
Plot: Fifteen years after the original film, the philosophical Lieutenant William F. Kinderman is investigating a baffling series of murders around Georgetown that all contain the hallmarks of The Gemini, a deceased serial killer. His investigation eventually leads him to a catatonic patient in a psychiatric hospital who has recently started to speak, claiming he is The Gemini and detailing the murders, but bears a striking resemblance to Father Damien Karras.

Reviews:

What’s good in this film we can attribute to William Peter Blatty’s script and direction and to the casting, especially Brad Dourif and George C. Scott; what’s bad, to Executive Meddling – in particular the last minute exorcism performed by a last minute priest; it says a lot that Burton’s Father Lamont from Exorcist II: The Heretic is more memorable than Nicol Williamson’s Father Morning.

Unlike The Heretic, III looks and feels – except for a bizarre dream sequence featuring cameos by Fabio and Patrick Ewing as angels – like it belongs in the same world as The Exorcist; that is to say, it knows the words and the music.

There are haunting visuals that stay with you long after the film is over (the crucifix opening its eyes, the old woman crawling on the ceiling, Scott’s daughter’s near decapitation). At the same time, the film has a sense of humor that I would call shakespearean; Father Joseph Dyer (Ed Flanders), whose dialogue includes a reference to Mel Brooks’s Spaceballs, is akin to the gravedigger in Hamlet or the porter in Macbeth.

What bothers me about III is the same that troubles me about The Heretic – though to a much lesser degree –, and it’s the ‘how.’ Specifically, how Patient X, alias Father Damien Karras (Jason Miller), ends up in a cell in a hospital’s psychiatric ward for the past 15 years.

It’s a good thing that Blatty decided to have X played by both Miller and Dourif – more so the latter than the former –, because Dourif, as James ‘The Gemini Killer’ Venamun, has a long, expository, loose-end-tying monologue which proves that sometimes you can indeed polish a turd; it doesn’t, even after allowing for supernatural intervention, make a lick of sense (the corpse of a beloved local priest bursts out of his “cheap little coffin” and goes missing, and no one is the wiser? Yeah, right), but it’s all in the delivery.

Dourif turns in a blood-curdling, bone-chilling campfire tale (at one point he even briefly reflects “is this true?”, as if he finds it hard to swallow himself). Now, I’m not saying Miller couldn’t have done this, but in retrospect I don’t see how he or anyone else could have; I only know Dourif did it because I watched him do it in a movie-stealing performance that doubled the considerable respect I already had for him and his craft.

Very good sequel retains the high standard Blatty’s original screenplay set!

In going through the original ‘Exorcist’ trilogy (I have the DVD 6-pack, with the two versions of the remarkable original, as well as the two recent prequels, so far unwatched), I was intrigued of seeing Oscar-winning writer William Peter Blatty’s second stint behind the camera (for the record, I adored his ‘The Ninth Configuration’, done a decade prior), especially for the franchise that became his bread-and-butter (though I loved two films he earlier had co-wrote: ‘A Shot in the Dark’ and ‘The Omega Man’).

He once again does quite a credible job–both with the writing and in helming the picture. To me, it didn’t matter much that Linda Blair wasn’t involved–I like how it became a search for an already-dead serial killer–and I have been a great fan of George C. Scott in genre films since the likes of ‘Dr. Strangelove’ and ‘The Changeling’. The scares and shocks were genuine, and the suspense and interest were there. It made me wish that even more sequels had been made, it was THAT good.

Excellent Sequel
A police lieutenant uncovers more than he bargained for as his investigation of a series of murders, which have all the hallmarks of the deceased ‘Gemini’ serial killer, lead him to question the patients of a psychiatric ward.

Although I actually enjoyed the second “Exorcist” film, most people consider it a stinker and like to pretend it never happened. For those people, this is the right film to watch. A great tale of possession, that follows rather directly (though belatedly) from the original.

George C. Scott adds a certain weight to any film. Just as he did for “The Changeling”, he makes what could be a forgettable horror film into something really worthwhile. He is a vastly underrated actor.
