Note from EncoderHappy Halloween 2022 from QxR!



This BluRay encode offers 5.1 surround sound as opposed to the 2.0 stereo offered by the AMZN WEB-DL. English SDH subtitles, chapters and a bonus 87-minute interview are included.



Also included is the Festival Cut of the 1998 BBC documentary "The Fear of God: 25 Years of The Exorcist". This version features additional interviews that weren't present in other versions released previously. The source wasn't the best and had a lot of rainbowing that needed removing, so expect some minor colour bleeding here and there. I did my best to keep it to a minimum. It was going to get its own separate release but I decided to include it here as a bonus feature instead.
