30 movies that need the Lego treatment so bad it’s wrong
14. The Exorcist
Premise of the movie: The Exorcist is a movie that was once banned in movie theaters. It was the stuff of nightmares for many in the 70s and caused controversy over its religious connotations. However, it has become one of the most iconic horror movies in history, recently being adapted for TV.
The movie tells the tale of a young girl called Regan, who begins acting oddly and worrying her mother. When her mother can’t find out what’s wrong with her, a priest visits and believes that Regan has been possessed by the devil. The only option to save her is through an exorcism.
Why it needs the Lego treatment: The Exorcism included some extremely good cinematography for the time. Lego would make it all go one step further. Twisting heads, crab walking down the stairs, and projectile vomiting would be easily recreated with the animation. And who wouldn’t want to see what Lego projectile vomit looks like?
The Lego version could also add some humor to the movie, instead of making it all satanic and scary. Instead of the devil, Lego could create its own evil creature in the depths of hell. It could even be a human trying to destroy the Lego world or even a creature from the Planet Duplo.
The most recent TV series hasn’t been the best adaptation of the movie. In fact, nothing would ever meet the movie’s expectations, except a fun version of Lego.
