You know what’s cool about 1980s horror films?
Good artists create. Great artist steal. No truer words could ever be spoken regarding the horror genre.

Pazuzu? Seriously you can't come up with a scarier demon name?
You love 'em. You hate 'em. You don't know where to start. You worship at their altar. All these things are true. One of the most polemic (and satisfying) devices in the horror genre -- shaky cam/found footage flics.

When a coach, teacher, parent, or peer says “...hey there, that was a really competent job.” Competent? Yeah. Competent. A really condescending term that points to the ultimate in back-handed compliments. It’s not bad, per se, but it ain’t great either. Enter The Last Exorcism. A really competent piece of filmmaking.
