From N.E.: “About a year ago I was commissioned to create a poster to commemorate the movie The Exorcist. The 40th anniversary was coming up and it was going to be a nice thing to celebrate the film. The Exorcist, while being one of the scariest films of all time, is ultimately about a priest's crisis of faith, guilt, and ability to fight a very personal spiritual battle. I tried to convey this emotion and intensity with contrast and oppressive shadows in the illustration. By using a more stark composition, I hope to achieve a singular or at least striking image. The finished art was shown to the film's director William Friedkin, who not only gave his approval for it to be printed but generously offered to sign the 25 Variant run.”

William Friedkin's The Exorcist (1973) remains one of horror's most acclaimed and unsettling films, following a priest's harrowing crisis of faith as he confronts a young girl's demonic possession. N.E.'s print, personally approved and signed by director William Friedkin, is an extraordinarily significant piece for collectors given its rare directorial provenance and archival Arches paper.
