DC Readers: Attend A Free Early Screening Of ‘The Exorcist: Believer’

We’re happy to offer our DC readers the chance to attend a free early screening of The Exorcist: Believer! The film is directed by David Gordon Green (Halloween trilogy). The film is a direct sequel to William Friedkin’s groundbreaking 1973 horror, and features the return of Ellen Burstyn as Chris MacNeil, joined by Leslie Odom Jr., Lidya Jewett, Olivia O’Neill, Ann Dowd, Jennifer Nettles, and Norbert Leo Butz.

SYNOPSIS: Exactly 50 years ago this fall, the most terrifying horror film in history landed on screens, shocking audiences around the world. Now, a new chapter begins. From Blumhouse and director David Gordon Green, who shattered the status quo with their resurrection of the Halloween franchise, comes The Exorcist: Believer. Since the death of his pregnant wife in a Haitian earthquake 13 years ago, Victor Fielding (Tony winner and Oscar® nominee Leslie Odom, Jr.; One Night in Miami, Hamilton) has raised their daughter, Angela (Lidya Jewett, Good Girls) on his own. But when Angela and her friend Katherine (newcomer Olivia O’Neill), disappear in the woods, only to return three days later with no memory of what happened to them, it unleashes a chain of events that will force Victor to confront the nadir of evil and, in his terror and desperation, seek out the only person alive who has witnessed anything like it before: Chris MacNeil.

The screening takes place on Tuesday, October 3rd at 7:00pm at Regal Majestic. If you’d like to attend, RSVP at the Gofobo site here. Please remember all screenings are first come first served and you’ll want to arrive early to ensure seating. Enjoy the show!

The Exorcist: Believer opens in theaters on October 6th.
