Film History Doc 'Boorman and the Devil' Trailer on Making 'Exorcist II'"We all make failures. After directing Point Blank and Deliverance, director John Boorman was offered to direct The Exorcist II for Warner Bros in 1975. This is the story of what happened, why it was an ambitious idea, and the value of taking big creative swings (especially in Hollywood). Boorman and the Devil is a documentary directed by producer / filmmaker David Kittredge, making his second feature film. Yellow Veil Pictures debuts Kittredge's Boorman and the Devil doc in select US theaters starting August 28th, 2026 with more theaters during September.
