Do you dare to walk these stairs again? Too late, we\u2019re already falling down them into 1990\u2019s THE EXORCIST III, and helping to cushion our fall is film and culture writer Drew McWeeny! Along the way, we tackle the film\u2019s \u201cone and done\u201d filming strategy, we debate how the film\u2019s unreality becomes a reality, the incredible performances given by George C. Scott, Brad Dourif, and the other supporting characters, we work through the high camp comedy combined with dedicated sincerity of the characters, and of course, we pick apart the film\u2019s scariest shock sequence: Larry King ordering a sandwich. All this plus a high-spirited round of Choose Your Own Deathventure, and yes, we talk about \u201cthe jump scare.\u201d And Fabio.
