Schrader's Exorcist Prequel Gets a Release Date

by | April 14, 2005 | Comments

Remember all the hoopla that surrounded last year’s "Exorcist: The Beginning"? How the execs didn’t like Paul Schrader‘s cut so they hired Renny Harlin to do the whole movie pretty much from scratch? And how the movie ended up, well, pretty bad, even after all that trouble? Well now we can see how "unreleasable" Schrader’s original version actually is, because WB will be releasing it (in limited release) on May 20th.No word yet on what this version will be called, but Variety says that WB is leaning towards "Dominion: A Prequel to the Exorcist." (Also no word on if WB is kidding about that title or not.)
