Very similar to the movie, which isn't a bad thing. The antisemitism was ... gratuitous and unneeded. Other than that and a few other brief things I enjoyed this a lot.

The Exorcist is absolutely frightening in the first half, but the horror gives way to a beautiful rumination of guilt, faith, and responsibility.
