Watch The Duxorcist For Free

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

. . . failed to put the bed rails up when his dad Mel was hospitalized for a sore throat (Hey, this is Hollywood, where they rush folks to the ICU for hang-nails, ear wax, and zits!) shortly after Mel Blanc voiced Daffy in THE DUXORCIST, and his dad's career was cut short when his frail frame could not recover from a tumble off his hospital bed (don't forget that Mel was then 209 in Duck Years). Apart from that tragic back story, this Looney Tune is not quite as funny as its title might lead viewers to expect. There's no pea soup projectile vomiting, 360-degree head spins, or bloody crucifixes here, all of which could be counted upon for hysterical lampooning if THE SIMPSONS made THE BARXOCIST an episode in their annual Treehouse of Horror. Instead, THE DUXORCIST gives us a stale SYBIL reference and a few lame GHOSTBUSTERS riffs. Though this is far from the worst Later Day Looney Tune, it's more of an argument for pulling the plug on the Termite Terrace Nursing Home than it is for wishing that Warner Bros. had churned out dozens more animated shorts just like it in the 1980s.

I liked the Duxorcist on the whole. Admittedly I prefer the Looney Tunes cartoons of the 1940s-50s, but The Duxorcist was very interesting, and when I saw Daffy Duck's Quackbusters recently, I was surprised at how well it fitted with the story of that film. Why do I say that? It has a good story about Daffy owning an exorcism service and a possessed woman who turns into a creature when Daffy isn't looking. The animation is nice to look at, and the music is good. The dialogue is funny on the whole and the gags are like the story, interesting. The cartoon moves swiftly, and it was nice to see Melissa again, quite an alluring duck here. I liked Daffy too, instead of cynical and greedy, he is really nice, and this was a refreshing change. I do like him when he is cynical and greedy, it's just that it is nice to have a change once in a while. Overall, very interesting and has an atmospheric tone to it. 9/10 Bethany Cox

This Looney Tunes cartoon was one of the shorts edited into Daffy's feature length Quackbusters movie. He plays a Paranormalist, who deals with everything from ghouls and ghosts and goblins to aliens and UFO's. A possessed woman calls him up begging to be exorsized. Good job Daffy knows what he's doing for a change.It's a funny short as the possessed woman turns into a vampire creature whenever Daffy isn't looking. But Daffy seems right at home in this particular guise as he did Duck Dodgers or Dorlock Homes. I'd like to see more of this in the future or maybe even the Quackbusters DVD if Warner ever decide to release it.

If there was ever an award for freakiest Looney Tunes short, it would probably go to "The Duxorcist", which plays off "The Exorcist". Most people would wonder how Warner Bros. could produce a cartoon that parodied what is considered tobe the #1 scariest movie of all time. However, they did it, though it is still pretty scary (note: most young children probably won't like this). Playing right along the movie "Daffy Duck's Quackbusters", Daffy gets a house call from a young duck-lady who says there's something paranormal going onwith her household appliances. Of course, what Daffy doesn't realize is that the haunting isn't with the microwave or the blender... but with the lady herself. Daffy tries to exorcise the demons out of her (thankfully, without the use of a priest and holy water), but may have a few problems when the demons leaveher body and see Daffy as a new host...Despite being very funny, this cartoon is about as spooky as Looney Tunes got. Most fans of the original movie will love it, but younger children will probably not be too thrilled, especially when the lady starts to transform into the monster. Suggestion: put the kids to bed and put this on for the teenagers, they'll love it.
