Paul Schrader's cut of Exorcist: The Beginning coming to theaters?

Exorcist: The Beginning: The whole Paul Schrader incident with the most recent release of Exorcist: The Beginning is amazing (start your quest here for the truth here). But, the film from the director who was fired, replaced, and reshot may still have a chance at coming to the big screen according to MovieHole. Take a look...

Why isn't Paul Schrader's cut of "The Exorcist : The Beginning" listed as an extras component on the soon-to-be-released DVD?

Easy : His version is set to be released as a stand-alone movie all of its own.

"Paul is currently in post-production on the movie, as we're anticipating a limited theatrical release here in the United States sometime in 2005", Morgan Creek told Moviehole this morning.

When Schrader was hired to do the film, he was told to deliver a "non-pea soup" take.

"They made it clear -- no spinning heads and no pea soup," he told Daily Variety earlier this year. "So that's what I delivered, but then they changed their mind."
