I find the most shocking seems to be those in the hospitals, with Regan undergoing medical tests shot documentary-style. I love the relationship between Lt Kinderman and Father Karras, the investigation each one undertakes (criminal behaviour and demonic possession, respectively), and the frustration, helplessness, and love displayed by Chris MacNeil.
