A lot of people I know who saw The Exorcist on release at the cinema in the '70s actually have stated that they find it laughable now. Many have gone as far as saying that they won't watch it again, due to not being able to take it seriously anymore.
I do like The Exorcist, and understand it's importance and history within cinema, but I'd only rate it around 8/10: Good, but not a favourite by any means.
