William Girdler and AIP's blaxploitation take on The Exorcist was the victim of a lawsuit by Warner Brothers, which led to it being pulled from theaters.
I lived in Louisville when they filemd this. They filmed during the infamous April 4, 1974 tornados tha wiped a good bit of Louisville off the map then, and struck near them and myself in our basement at the time!
That looks fantastic. Clearly 'Carrie' ripped it off. I say that because both movies have two syllable girl names as titles, that rhyme.
