The Exorcist III, written and directed by William Peter Blatty, delves into the nature of evil and faith, making it a worthy sequel to the original. Following Detective Bill Kinderman fifteen years after Regan MacNeil's exorcism, he investigates a series of brutal murders linked to the Gemini Killer. The case becomes personal when Father Dyer, a friend, is murdered. As the investigation unfolds, a psychiatric patient claims to be the Gemini Killer, culminating in a shocking connection to Father Damien Karras, who had previously sacrificed himself for Regan.
Blatty originally wanted original Exorcist director William Friedkin to helm the picture, but when Friedkin passed, Blatty insisted on directing himself.
If The Exorcist was about the power of faith, The Exorcist III is about evil's need to assert its presence.
Fifteen years after the exorcism of Regan MacNeil, Detective Bill Kinderman investigates a series of brutal murders connected to the MacNeil case.
When a psychiatric patient claims to be the Gemini Killer, Kinderman discovers that the man is inexplicably Father Damien Karras, who sacrificed himself to save Regan.
