An exceptional film from William Friedkin, utterly gripping from the opening scene right until the end. Spectacular visuals and another memorable score from Tangerine Dream.

"11.3. Blu-ray William Friedkinin uusversio vaihtaa hahmoja, antaa näille selvät taustat, ja täsmentää tapahtumapaikkaa. Friedkinin mukaan tämä ei ollut missään nimessä uusintaversio, vaan täysin uusi skenaario - go figure. Billy, I loovee you man, mut vittu sä olit välillä pihalla näissä lausunnoissasi. Tuotantotaustoiltaan valtavan vaikuttavaa paneutumista, mikä nyt ei tietenkään automaattiaesti elokuvasta tee parempaa, mutta kyllähän se ainakin tässä tapauksessa näkyy."

"Format: Blu-Ray Viewing: 2nd (or 3rd) Thoughts: There are few movies that transcend the casual viewing experience and become something more, something that pulls you in and gets under your skin. William Friedkin has a reputation of doing this, most notably with The Exorcist but in a very similar fashion in Sorcerer. It's a movie that takes you on a wild ride into the heart of darkness. An uncompromising, unrelenting experience where no one is safe and death is always just a step away. Such an in"
