Linda Blair Says Yes to Exorcist However Just One Thing…
- small cameo in last year’s underwhelming sequel Exorcist: Believer, but as far as coming back for another chapter? She says she will, but under one condition:
- “If the audience wants me to come back, they need to help me to change the plight of the animals right now,” she told Entertainment Weekly. “I’m hoping the public will understand. I want to go back and work, but I won’t leave my animal friends.”
- Her non-profit Linda Blair WorldHeart Foundation

- David Gordon Green’s planned Exorcist trilogy was cut short after last year’s Believer had a less-than-celebrated reception. He has since left the project and Universal is currently looking for his replacement.
- Domestic $65,537,395
- International $70,721,213
- Worldwide $136,498,027
- Despite extensive marketing and hype, the film fell short of box office expectations, earning $26.5 million domestically and $44 million globally in its opening weekend.

Harley Poe – Demons
Tarot
- We get a whole host of ghouls for as many featured in the Tarot stack. Apparently, using this particular deck releases dark forces that come after those whose fortunes were told. The variety of demons, each with their own dispositions and weapons, levels up a genre that usually only gets one or two vindictive evil spirits. One by one, they come face to face with fate and end up in a race against death.
