Tuedays's Fright Film Tidbit


Ellen Burstyn received a permanent spinal injury during filming of The Exorcist (1973). In a scene where she was thrown away from her daughter Regan, a harness jerked so her violently from the bed that Burstyn fell on her coccyx. When she screams out in pain in the movie, she was not acting at all, the pain is genuine.
