William Friedkin's Sorcerer is now considered an unsung masterpiece but was a critical and box office failure when it was first released in 1977. Quentin Tarantino has called Sorcerer one of his favorite films and Stephen King has named it as his favorite film. In this episode, Ken Mercer and FT Kosempa look at the origins of the film, tell some harrowing tales from the set, and discuss the career of director William Friedkin.
The film also stars Roy Scheider.
