The Exorcist: Believer Release Date Changed

Last month I was researching the horror genre and I came across many iconic horror movies. Every list that I found had a collection of movies based on their sensibilities of what classifies as horror and what they find to be gimmicky. However, whichever list I checked, all of them had The Exorcist (1973) in some capacity. The film is so embedded in the hearts of horror fanatics that most of the recent horror films pay homage to the William Friedkin directorial. The insurmountable success of the film forced the studio to make sequels of the film that amounted to nothing. Now, 50 years since the original film, there is a sequel in the works – The Exorcist: Believer. It would be a direct sequel to the original and would disregard every other film in the franchise. The film was supposed to come out just before the Halloween season but now the film has been preponed. To when? Find out below!

However, Taylor Swift announced today that she would be releasing her concert movie on the same day, selling out AMC Theaters across the country after the initial announcement. In response, Jason Blum – the founder of Blumhouse (the production company behind The Exorcist: Believer) has announced that the sequel will now release one week earlier, on October 6.
