You can possess The Exorcist III on Scream Factory Blu-Ray this October

THE EXORCIST III is one of the few horror Part 3's that horror fans seem to universally adore. Directed by William Peter Blatty, author of the novel THE EXORCIST is based on, this terrifying 1990 cult classic is being given the VIP treatment with a 2-disc Collector's Edition Blu-Ray from Scream Factory.

The Blu, out October 25th, will also contain a Director's Cut! Well, sort of. Says Scream Factory: "We are working on putting together a version that will be close to Blatty’s original script using a mixture of various film and video tape sources that we have been provided with. This is still a work in progress and we will update you with more details at the time we announce the full list of bonus materials." Check out the new original artwork by Joel Robinson below!

For more than fifteen years Police Lieutenant Kinderman (George C. Scott) has been haunted by the death of his friend Father Damien Karras. Now, on the 15th anniversary of the exorcism that claimed the priest’s life, Kinderman’s world is once again shattered when a boy is found decapitated and savagely crucified. It’s just the beginning of a nightmare series of bizarre religious murders.

The brutal murders bear the hallmarks of the infamous Gemini Killer…who died in the electric chair fifteen years earlier. But when a psychopath claiming to be the Gemini Killer reveals intimate, gruesome details that only the true killer could possibly know, Kinderman is confronted with a horrifying truth that he cannot explain…and that will shake him to the core.

The Exorcist III is author/filmmaker William Peter Blatty’s personal vision of what followed after The Exorcist. Like the original, The Exorcist III combines elements of a detective story, a theological puzzle, and an unforgettable study in terror.

Their typically massive slate of extras will be announced in late summer or early fall.
