LAYCOCK, J. P. H., The Exorcist Effect. Horror, Religion, and Demonic Belief. Oxford University Press, 2023. 312p. Hardback. In The Exorcist Effect, Joseph Laycock and Eric Harrelson demonstrate how horror's fake blood seeps through the screen to stain our cultural and religious beliefs and habits. By combining film theory with religious history and cultural currents, readers find ways cinema is deeply imbricated with conspiracy theories, xenophobia, religious faith, racism, and our legal system.
