Both Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert gave "The Exorcist" four stars. This is amazing, considering Gene Siskel was notoriously prudish about horror movies. He gave a thumbs down to Poltergeist, Aliens - Scontro finale (1986) and Il silenzio degli innocenti (1991). Siskel frequently complained about the terrorizing of children in movies, and complained about similar themes in Poltergeist - Demoniache presenze (1982), but he said "The Exorcist" had such stunning professionalism at every level, and the ending was so moving with the priests heroically sacrificing themselves for the child, he said he loved it.
