Pazuzu chalk drawing.


Just spotted a chalk drawing of Pazuzu on the second truck as it sets off. Friedkin referencing his earlier masterpiece. Love this movie.

I wondered if that's a subtle indication that there may be a supernatural subtext to SORCERER.

The soundtrack seems more suited to a supernatural/horror thriller.

And those sounds of wailing demons as they're crossing the bridge.

The front of the truck resembled Pazuzu.

And that sketch of it on the truck.

Makes you stop and think.

Friedkin's next major film Cruising definitely had a supernatural subtext to it.
