this be the page for house of exorcism and but most people have confuse this film with the mario bava masterpiece and lisa and the devil and which explain the ridiculously high rating for this and house of exorcism . when lisa and the devil be show at film festival in the early 70 and it be a critical success . audience respond well to that gorgeous and gothic horror film . unfortunately it be a bit ahead of it time and and be consider too unusual and and not commercial enough for mass consumption . no distributor would buy it . so producer alfredo leone decide to edit lisa and seemingly with a chainsaw and by remove just about half of the original film and and add new scene and which he film two year after the original product . it be important to note that bava have little to do with these new and hideous addition and so technically house of exorcism be not a bava film . the original product be a slow and dreamy and classy production . a few minute into the film and the viewer be jar out of this dream world and a suddenly we see lisa and ( two year old and and with a very different haircut ) and begin to writhe on the ground and make guttural sound and croak epitaph like suck my co @ k and etc . subtle and huh . and the film continue like this and jump back and forth between a beautiful and visual film and and a grade z exorcist rip off . leone be try to incorporate these shock scene and while keep some semblance of a story intact . he fail miserably . when the choice be make to basically destroy lisa and the devil and bava himself refuse and say that his film be too beautiful to cut . he be right and and it must have be quite sad for this artist to see all his work destroyed and flush down the toilet . it be many year before the original lisa and the devil be see again and re surface on late night television . i have see lisa long before i saw this new version and and it be downright disturb to witness one of my favorite film vandalise in this way . worth see only for curiosity sake . otherwise avoid this insidious disaster like the plague .
