THE LAST EXORCISM

I’m an absolute sucker for a found footage horror movie. It doesn’t even matter to me how they shoehorn the camera into the plot. It’s all from the point of view of a videographer at a wedding who doesn’t stop filming when an army of demons appear – great! The main character had a film school assignment that was due the same weekend as the apocalypse so he caught it all on camera – sounds plausible to me! It’s all the CCTV footage from a petrol station in the middle of nowhere that’s visited by the ghost of a tractor – I love it!

Actors pretending to be real everyday people is my favourite type of acting. The Last Exorcism is a good version of this sort of “woah, we’ve got an amateur documentarian on our hands.” It’s about a pair of filmmakers who follow a reverend around who's taking part in the doco because he wants to prove that exorcisms aren’t real. Now imagine they came across a real possession. You don’t have to imagine that – because that’s the plot of the movie. The Last Exorcism has done the imagining for you.

This isn’t really related to anything but in the Wikipedia description of the plot there’s a bit that describes the part where the demon asks the exorcist if he wants a “blowing job” and the words “blowing job” link to an article on fellatio. What person out there was really stuck on the idea of “blowing job”. “Blowing job? What on earth?” And then they click on through. “Ahhh I see.” Also, the fellatio page has – Wikipedia’s words – “An illustration of a woman performing fellatio on a man.” It's a surprisingly detailed drawing for a page that must be updated by world's hornist admins. Sadly, this is the only example of this act on the internet.

How would I fit into The Last Exorcism? Well, certainly not in that “blowing job” scene. I think the best way to fit me in with the premise is if I, Peter Jones, tag along with the filmmakers and try to do some funny vox pops in the local town. Being a part of a major documentary like this could be a huge break for me.

IF I WERE IN 'THE LAST EXORCISM' I WOULD: NOT GO VIRAL, DESPITE POSTING THAT 'SEXORCIST' CLIP THREE SEPERATE TIMES TO INSTAGRAM REELS
