So like Rennie Harlin did Exorcist: The Beginning last year and I thought it was a good movie......so could someone kindly explain what this is?
Paul Schrader is in "post-production" on his version of "Exorcist: The Beginning," with it set to hit theaters in 2005, according to MovieHole.net. The DVD release of Harlin's version of the film will street in '05 without any piece of Schrader's version.
Is this a totally different movie? A remake of a movie that only came out last October? Anyone know what the deal is?

Here ya go...
According to Variety, Renny Harlin's reshoot of Exorcist: The Beginning, which wrapped Feb. 22nd, has it that not a single frame of the footage shot by Paul Schrader will be included in the bedeviled prequel's new cut.
Harlin's 13-week effort equals the amount of time spent by Schrader on his original shoot.
Schrader ankled the Morgan Creek production last year due to creative differences. Still, his name is reportedly meant to stay on the pic.
Originally budgeted at $25 million, the antecedent to the 1973 horror classic is now jokingly being referred to in Rome as "the sequel to the prequel."
Three original key cast members -- Clara Bellar, Gabriel Mann and pop star Billy Crawford -- are not likely to appear in the final version, since they didn't return for reshooting. A new scribe, Alexi Hawley ("Grimm"), was brought in to rewrite the William Wisher and Caleb Carr script, and a new editor is working only with Harlin's material for the recut, according to sources.
While Schrader's footage is thought to have been considered too tame, new footage is said to generously feature revolving eyeballs, spinning heads and loads of projectile vomit.

So then it's the same movie.....but not at the same time.....It's a sequal to the prequal.....so basicly since I still can't figure out what the hell they're talking about...my money's on it being chock full of major suckage......Sigh...Oh well...Good thing Linda Blair's not dead, otherwise she'd be rollin in her coffin.
