This week on Log It! We kick things off talking horror classic, recommendations and classics we still need to see. Ian takes a potshot at the Dodgers. We tease a baseball podcast? Baseball movie episiode? Last four we discuss the latest movies we’ve been watching.
Finally, The Exorcist. Ian's first time seeing it, he tells us his thoughts, Angelo tells us why it's one of his favorites. Angelo also tells us more about the making of the film, about Linda Blair's experience, working with Friedkin as a director, and much more. We also dig into the film's themes, and try to make sense of some of its enduring mysteries.
