Obtuse thriller.

At its worst, it is supposed to be profound; at its best it's amusing

Like the Gothic castle (festooned with gargoyles, crucifixes and posters of Bela Lugosi) in which The Ninth Configuration is predominantly set, Blatty's film is something of a grand folly, by turns uproariously funny and deadly serious....

Should be the centerpiece of a Stacy Keach shrine somewhere . . . should one ever be erected.

unusual dark comedy, with stacy keach at his best.

An allegory that's so impossibly overstuffed that it can't help but explode
April 26, 2016
A resolutely offbeat film which offers a richly rewarding and affecting viewing experience if you're willing to embrace it's esoteric flourishes.
