Show Notes
Editions
Theatrical vs “The Version You’ve Never Seen.”
Demons
Devils, demons, pazuzu, deception. How do people get possessed? Different theories.
Supernaturalism
Supernatural detective work. Priest losing his faith.
“Real” Exorcism
The Catholics. The Rite of Exorcism. Bureaucracy. Serious vs loosey-goosey exorcisms.
Simple vs Easy Explanations
Occam’s razor. Science.
Latin
Tradition. Latin as the language of ancient evil. Ecclesiastical latin.
Order of Operations
Medicine -> fringe medicine -> call a priest!
Horror
The ways this movie is timelessly excellent and scary. Parenting.
Demon Battle Plan
Demons might not be the best at planning, OR we might be inconsequential nothings to them, OR creating a rift between god and his people is their job.
Goodbyes
I need re-assignment, Tom. I want out of this job. It’s wrong. It’s no good.
