legendary writer/director paul schrader's dominion: a prequel to the exorcist hit theaters last week. schrader completed dominion two years ago -- but the film's producers hated it and brought b-movie director renny harlin in for reshoots. harlin's reworked exorcist: the beginning was released last august and was a critical and commercial disaster. its failure set the stage for schrader's version to see the light of day.
