As a bit of a horror aficionado, I can't wait for this episode. I've never seen The Exorcist, probably one of the only classic horror films I haven't seen yet. Also, regarding Scream, it wasn't just a slasher film, it was a meta deconstruction of the slasher genre, and horror in general. It's characters were self-aware that they were in a horror film, and the film commented on and subverted many of the common tropes of the slasher.
