Came across this on an old VCR, came on after a show I recorded. Can’t believe this actually aired on FTA!
“The Exorcist (1973): The Version You’ve Never Seen”
Not sure exactly what Nine meant, but anyway
Missing the classification board, it read: MA15+ “Very Coarse Language, Adult Themes, Horror”.
It was of course edited, as it’s R18+. They removed shots such as ‘spider crawl’ and some dialogue which is too unbelievable and offensive to mention (and the editing in typical Nine fashion was terrible, one scene near the end where the priest goes over to her and she says “stick your …” and cut. So the first bit made absolutely no sense).
Attached below is watermark, typical Nine bumper transition (with The Exorcist theme if you know it), PRG and opening/end credits board.
July 2008.
