One must wonder whether the Horror movie as we know it today would even exist without the masterpiece that is The Exorcist. Adapted from the best selling novel, William Freidkin through caution to the wind and created a movie that took the public by storm. Incredible performances from the whole cast but especially Linda Blair as the possessed Regan. The Exorcist is must see cinema.
Most actors will work their whole career and never play a character that transcends the movie screen and Sylvester Stallone has two such characters. Rocky Balboa could be the most recognisable name in all cinema but it has to be closely followed by John Rambo.
First Blood is the first chapter in the Rambo franchise and is a far more subtle and introverted look at the character. A study in PTSD, First Blood is a movie that created an icon and cemented Sylvester Stallone at the very top of Hollywood royalty
