EVERY ARTIST HAS HIS DEMON.

After directing “Point Blank” and “Deliverance”, John Boorman was offered the chance to direct “Exorcist II: The Heretic” — a film that became a notorious failure and nearly ended his career. Decades later, Boorman is joined by fellow filmmakers Mike Flanagan, Joe Dante, and Karyn Kusama for a candid, deeply felt portrait of ambition colliding with public rejection.

“Boorman and the Devil” premiered at Venice Film Festival and has since screened at FrightFest Glasgow, Beyond Fest, and the Overlook Film Festival, where it was praised as a comprehensive, deeply felt exploration of artistic risk, ambition and failure.
