Plot

Annie Graham is a miniature artist who lives in Utah with her husband, Steve; their 16-year-old son, Peter; and their eccentric 13-year-old daughter, Charlie. At the funeral of her secretive mother, Ellen Leigh, Annie delivers a eulogy explaining their fraught relationship. Steve is later informed that Ellen's grave has been desecrated. Annie attends a support group for the bereaved and reveals that her family suffered from mental illnesses that resulted in their deaths.

To attend a party, Peter lies that he is going to a school event, and Annie forces him to take Charlie with him. Unsupervised, Charlie eats cake containing nuts, to which she is allergic, and falls into anaphylactic shock. As Peter drives her to a hospital, she leans out of the window for air and is decapitated by a telephone pole. In shock, Peter leaves his sister's corpse in the car for their mother to discover the next morning. The family grieves and tension rises between them all, leading to Annie viciously berating Peter one night at dinner for his actions. Peter is plagued by Charlie's presence around the house.






Annie is befriended by a support group member, Joan. Influenced by Joan, Annie forces her family to do a séance to communicate with Charlie. Charlie seemingly possesses Annie until Steve douses her with water. Suspecting that Charlie's spirit has become malevolent, Annie throws Charlie's sketchbook into the fireplace but her sleeve also begins to burn. She quickly retrieves the book and heads to Joan for advice but Joan is missing. She notices that Joan's welcome mat resembles her mother's craft work and goes through her mother's possessions, finding a photo album linking Joan to Ellen, and a book with information about a demon named Paimon who is a king of Hell and wishes to inhabit a male host. She also finds pictures of Ellen with members of a cult who worship her as their leader. In the attic, she finds Ellen's decapitated and rotted body and strange symbols on the wall written in blood.

At school, Peter sees a disturbing apparition of himself and slams his head against his desk, breaking his nose. Annie begs Steve to burn the sketchbook so she can sacrifice herself and stop the haunting. Steve sees Ellen's body but assumes Annie has gone mad. When Annie throws the book into the fire herself, Steve bursts into flames and dies. Peter awakens to find his father's charred body, and encounters a nude man. He is then chased by a now-possessed Annie into the attic. Levitating, Annie beheads herself with a piano wire as naked coven members and a shocked Peter watch. In fear, Peter jumps out of the window. A light, most likely of the demon, enters his body, and he stands, following Annie's levitating corpse into Charlie's tree house. There, Peter sees Charlie's severed head with a crown. Joan, other coven members, and the headless corpses of his mother and grandmother bow to him. Joan puts the crown on Peter’s head, explaining that Charlie had originally been the host of Paimon since her birth - which was Ellen's doing - but they have now corrected their mistake: Paimon has been given the desired male host. The cult members pledge their lives to Paimon, allowing him to rule over them.

The.exorcist 1973 Full Movie Hindi Dubbed Watch Online

The Exorcist (1973 film)


The Exorcist is a 1973 American supernatural horror film adapted by William Peter Blatty from his 1971 novel. The film is directed by William Friedkin and stars Ellen Burstyn, Linda Blair, Max von Sydow, and Jason Miller. It is the first film in the Exorcist series, and follows the demonic possession of a 12-year-old girl and her mother's attempt to rescue her through an exorcism conducted by two priests.

Although the book had been a bestseller, Blatty, who produced, and Friedkin, his choice for director, had difficulty casting the film. After turning down, or being turned down by, major stars of the era, they cast in the lead roles the relatively little-known Burstyn, the unknown Blair, and Miller, the author of a hit play who had never acted in movies before, casting choices that were vigorously opposed by studio executives at Warner Bros. Principal photography was also difficult. Most of the set burned down, and Blair and Burstyn suffered long-term injuries in accidents. Ultimately the film took twice as long to shoot as scheduled and cost more than twice its initial budget.

On December 26, 1973, The Exorcist was released in 24 theaters in the U.S. and Canada. Audiences flocked to it, waiting in long lines during winter weather, many doing so more than once, despite mixed critical reviews. Some viewers had adverse physical reactions, often fainting or vomiting, to scenes such as its protagonist undergoing a realistic cerebral angiography and masturbating with a crucifix. There were reports of heart attacks and miscarriages; a psychiatric journal carried a paper on "cinematic neurosis" triggered by the film. Many children were taken to see the film, leading to charges that the MPAA ratings board had accommodated Warner by giving the film an R rating instead of the X they thought it deserved in order to ensure its commercial success; a few cities tried to ban it outright or prevent children from seeing it, and obscenity concerns kept the film from a home-video release in Britain until 1999.

The cultural conversation around the film, which also encompassed its treatment of Roman Catholicism, helped it become the first horror film to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture,one of ten Oscars it was nominated for, with Blatty's script and the film's sound winning their categories. It has remained high in critical esteem and commercial success ever since, becoming one of the highest-grossing films in history with a $441 million take as of 2019. For many years after its release it remained the top grosser in the supernatural horror and R-rated horror subcategories, as well.

The film has had a significant influence on popular culture,and several publications have regarded it one of the greatest horror films of all time.Prominent film critic Mark Kermode named it as his "favorite film of all time".In 2010, the Library of Congress selected the film to be preserved as part of its National Film Registry as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

Plot


Lankester Merrin, a veteran Catholic priest who performed an exorcism in the 1950s, is on an archaeological dig in the ancient city of Hatra in Iraq. There he finds an amulet that resembles a statue of Pazuzu, a demon of ancient origins with whose history Merrin is familiar.

In Georgetown, actress Chris MacNeil is living on location with her 12-year-old daughter Regan; she is starring in a film about student activism directed by her friend and associate Burke Dennings. After playing with a Ouija board and contacting a supposedly imaginary friend who she calls Captain Howdy, Regan begins acting strangely, including making mysterious noises, stealing, constantly using obscene language and exhibiting abnormal strength. Chris hosts a party, during which Regan comes downstairs unannounced, tells one of the guests—an astronaut—that he will die in space and then urinates on the floor. Later, Regan's bed begins to shake violently, adding further to her mother's horror. Chris consults a number of physicians, but Dr. Klein and his associates find nothing physiologically wrong with her daughter, despite Regan undergoing a battery of diagnostic tests.

One night when Chris is out, Burke Dennings is babysitting a heavily sedated Regan. Chris returns to hear he has died falling out the window. Although this is assumed to have been an accident given Burke's history of heavy drinking, his death is investigated by Lieutenant William Kinderman. Kinderman interviews Chris. He also consults psychiatrist Father Damien Karras, recently shaken after the death of his frail mother.




The doctors, thinking that Regan's aberrations are mostly psychological in origin, recommend an exorcism be performed, reasoning that believing oneself to be possessed can sometimes be cured by believing that exorcism works. Chris arranges a meeting with Karras. After Regan speaks backward, in different voices, and exhibits scars in the form of the words "Help Me" on her stomach, Karras is convinced that Regan is possessed. Believing her soul is in danger, he decides to perform an exorcism. The experienced Merrin is selected for performing the actual exorcism with Karras assisting.

Both priests witness Regan perform a series of bizarre, vulgar acts. They attempt to exorcise the demon, but the stubborn entity toys with them, especially Karras. Karras shows weakness and is dismissed by Merrin, who attempts the exorcism alone. Karras enters the room later and discovers Merrin has died of a heart attack. After failing to revive Merrin, the enraged Karras confronts the mocking, laughing spirit, and wrestles Regan's body to the ground. At Karras' invitation, it leaves Regan's body and possesses Karras. In a moment of self-sacrifice, the priest throws himself out of the window before being compelled to harm Regan. He is mortally injured. Father Dyer, an old friend of Karras, happens upon the scene and administers the last rites to his friend.




A few days later, Regan, now back to her normal self, prepares to leave for Los Angeles with her mother. Although Regan has no apparent recollection of her possession, she is moved by the sight of Dyer's clerical collar to kiss him on the cheek. Kinderman, who narrowly misses their departure, befriends Father Dyer as he investigates Karras' death.

The film stars Chris Evans, Song Kang-ho, Tilda Swinton, Jamie Bell, Octavia Spencer, Go Ah-sung, John Hurt, and Ed Harris. The movie takes place aboard the Snowpiercer train, operating on a globe-spanning track, carrying the last remnants of humanity after an attempt at climate engineering in order to stop global warming has unintentionally created a new Snowball Earth. Evans stars as Curtis Everett, a member of the lower-class tail section passengers as they lead a revolution against the elite of the front of the train. Filming was done on train car sets mounted on gimbals at Barrandov Studios in Prague to simulate the motion of the train.

Snowpiercer received critical acclaim, and appeared on many film critics' top ten film lists of 2014 following its international release. Praise was primarily directed towards its vision, direction, and performances, particularly Evans's and Swinton's. Initially planned for a limited-screen showing in the United States, the critical response to the film prompted The Weinstein Company to expand the showing to more theaters and through digital streaming services. Produced at a budget of $40 million, it remains the most expensive Korean production ever.

Plot


In 2014, an attempt to counteract global warming through climate engineering backfires catastrophically, causing another ice age and extinguishing all life. The only survivors are the passengers of the Snowpiercer, a massive train traveling on a circumnavigational track created by the transportation magnate and inventor, Wilford.

By 2031, privileged passengers inhabit the extravagant front cars while the "scum" inhabit the tail in squalid and brutal conditions. Under watch by Wilford's guards, they are brought only gelatinous "protein blocks" to eat. Curtis Everett plans to lead the tail passengers in a revolt that will take them all the way up to the engine, a perpetual motion machine. He strategizes with Gilliam, his mentor and the leader of the tail, and Curtis's second-in-command Edgar.

A woman named Claude and armed guards come to take two small children, Andy and Timmy; claiming that it is for a mere medical exam. Andy's father, Andrew, attempts to fight back, but is punished by the brutal overseer, Minister Mason; he is forced to put his arm into the extreme cold outside the train, effectively amputating it. Enraged, Curtis initiates their plan the next time they are fed. Curtis realizes that the guards have no ammunition, having apparently used all of it in prior tail rebellions. Curtis and the tail passengers easily rout them and take the security and prison cars, seeing daylight for the first time in over a decade.

In the prison car, Curtis releases security expert Namgoong Minsu and his clairvoyant daughter Yona so he can disable the locks between cars, offering them a hallucinogenic drug "Kronole" as payment. Gilliam suggests that if they take the water supply car, they will control any negotiations with Wilford. The group continues into the protein block manufacturing section, where Curtis learns that the protein blocks they have been served for nearly two decades are actually paste from ground up cockroaches. In the next car, the group is ambushed by an enormous group of masked guards with hatchets, spears and other melee weapons directed by Mason and Franco. The train then heads into a long tunnel, plunging the car into darkness. The masked men are equipped with night vision goggles, leaving the insurgents at a disadvantage. They are quickly able to fashion some torches, which levels the playing field, and launch a counterattack. In the ensuing bloody combat, Curtis reluctantly allows Edgar to be killed so he can capture Mason. The next day, some of the insurgents continue with her as a hostage while the rest remain behind to tend the injured and guard the prisoners. They travel through many luxurious cars, learning that the train has a fully supported ecosystem and serves delicacies to the upper class passengers such as sushi.

The group arrives at a classroom, where the teacher expounds to the children and the rebels on the greatness of Wilford and the "sacred engine". The propaganda video for children shows that the train travels 438,000 km a year on a world-wide railway track, 24 hours a day, without stopping. According to this, the train is moving at an average speed of 50km/h. While distracted by the celebration of the New Year marking one circumnavigation of the globe, the teacher ambushes them with a loaded submachine gun, killing Andrew before Grey kills her. Further back, Franco and Mason's soldiers use the same distraction to kill the rest of the rebel army. Franco executes Gilliam, and Curtis kills Mason in revenge. Curtis's group continues forward, followed by Franco, leading to a violent fight in a sauna car during which Franco kills Grey and mortally wounds Tanya before Curtis and Namgoong seemingly kill him.

Finally, the only three survivors of the revolution, Curtis, Namgoong and Yona make it to the gate to the engine at the front. Curtis attempts to get Namgoong to open the gate to the engine, but he refuses, revealing that he plans to use the highly flammable Kronole as an explosive to blow a hatch to the outside, as he has observed several signs the world outside is thawing and may be hospitable to life. Curtis confesses to him that shortly after boarding the train, the tail passengers resorted to cannibalism to survive, and he is haunted by his part in it. He was nearly ready to kill the infant Edgar when Gilliam offered his own arm instead. Meanwhile, Franco is revealed to have survived and makes his way toward the engine.

Wilford's assistant Claude emerges from the engine, shoots Namgoong, and invites Curtis inside where he finally meets Wilford. Wilford reveals that Curtis' revolution was actually orchestrated by himself and Gilliam to reduce the population and maintain the balance of the sealed ecosystem. He subsequently orders the elimination of 74% of the remaining tail passengers. He explains the importance of using fear and chaos to maintain order and leadership on the train.

After letting Curtis experience being alone for the first time in eighteen years, Wilford asks Curtis to replace him. Curtis appears ready to accept, when Yona runs in and pulls up a floorboard, showing Curtis that small children from the tail section, including Andy and Timmy, are being used as replacement parts for "extinct" machinery; the tail section serves to provide this resource for the engine. Curtis subdues Wilford and sacrifices an arm to save Timmy from this work, though Andy refuses to be saved. Namgoong revives and finally kills Franco as Yona lights the fuse on the Kronole. However, the door to the engine short-circuits and doesn't close, forcing Curtis and Namgoong to tightly embrace Yona and Timmy, protecting them from the blast. The explosion triggers an avalanche that derails the train. Yona and Timmy, apparently the only survivors, emerge from the wreckage and see a polar bear in the distance – proof that life exists outside the train.
