Re: Films given a different rating by the local town council than by the BBFC
For a long time I had a certain amount of curiosity about what 'The Exorcist' was like, and a few years back I did actually watch the whole film. As it was on TV it might have been edited, however, I'm not sure. It seems to me that there's a continual lowering of standards as all the films that were considered unsuitable for showing on TV at the time of their release are finally being shown eventually.
The film might not frighten you if you're an atheist or don't being in the existence of demons, etc. I, however, do happen to believe in all that sort of thing, so playing around with anything remotely demonic, e.g. Ouija boards, seances, etc. is dangerous in my opinion.
I'm too scared even to watch clips on YouTube of any of the films in the Exorcist or Omen franchises, or anything similar to them. I don't know if this is true or not, but someone told me on Facebook she knew people who had seen the original Exorcist film and things had happened to them. Exactly what things, she didn't specify. But, anyway, as a man with a form of autism life is difficult enough for me as it is living on my own in a flat.
