"In the history of horror cinema (and cinema in general), there is a before and after 'The Exorcist', based on William Peter Blatty's novel. It made history for various reasons, as it legitimized the genre as something more than cheap entertainment, with great artistic possibilities. It was the first film of the genre to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Picture (one of its ten nominations), and shocked the audience of its time with chilling scenes, whose special effects still impress."
