The Exorcist - Watch Order: The Beginning Timeline
This chronological watch order uses Exorcist: The Beginning as the prequel, showing Father Merrin's first encounter with demonic forces in Africa.
This version was the studio's preferred cut, featuring more conventional horror elements than Dominion. While telling essentially the same prequel story as Dominion, The Beginning takes a more action-oriented approach to the material.
