November, 1991 Danny Rolling is charged with five counts of murder, crimes that occurred over the course of four days in August 1990 in Gainesville, Florida. His crimes extended to a triple homicide, sexual assault, and even an attempted murder. He became known as the Gainesville Ripper.

On this episode of The Hollywood Outsider podcast, The Exorcist has returned to theaters after a long break, and we have to ask: are demonic possession movies even still scary? Does this notion of an otherworldly force occupying our bodies work in a cynically jaded society? Do your personal beliefs amplify or decrease your fear? It's an intriguing discussion as we take out the crucifix and take a jab at this topic. Also this week, our spoiler-free reviews of Amber Heard's return to film with In the Fire, as well as Prime's Totally Killer, streaming prices are due for another hike, and we play another round of our game: How Do You Survive with a timed theme. All this and more! Discussed on this episode:
