You might call Boorman’s fortitude admirable, but you could also call it delusional. And it lends "Boorman and the Devil" the quality of a true-life Christopher Guest movie.

Boorman, and others associated with "Exorcist II," know that they made an infamous disaster, yet the reason the film was a disaster still eludes them.
