Following the distribution and release of the movie, "The "Exorcist," much publicity concerning the psychiatric hazards of the film was reported. Numerous cases of traumatic neurosis and even psychosis were supposedly noted. This report confirms the hypothesis that traumatic "cinema neurosis" can be precipitated by viewing the movie in previously unidentified psychiatric patients. The paper will examine an early reported case by Freud, investigate some underlying psychological principles in the book, and then report on the presentation and treatment of four cases. This movie seems to be directly related to traumatic neurosis in susceptible people. Classical symptoms and disability were observed following viewing the movie. There are elements in the movie, such as possession with resultant loss of impulse control, that are likely to threaten people with similar problems, and to exceed their "stimulus barrier." Suggested treatment recommends brief, early access treatment, using the movie to help each patient to explore where he identified and to understand some of his ambivalent conflicts with either parents or spouse.
在电影《驱魔人》发行和上映之后，有诸多关于该电影对精神健康危害的报道。据说出现了大量创伤性神经症甚至精神病的病例。本报告证实了这样一个假设，即观看这部电影可能会使之前未被发现患有精神疾病的患者引发创伤性“电影神经症”。本文将审视弗洛伊德早期报告的一个病例，探究该电影背后的一些心理学原理，然后报告四个病例的临床表现及治疗情况。这部电影似乎与易感人群的创伤性神经症直接相关。观看该电影后出现了典型症状和功能障碍。电影中有一些情节，比如被附身导致冲动控制丧失，很可能会威胁到有类似问题的人，并超出他们的“刺激阈值”。建议的治疗方法是尽早进行简短治疗，利用这部电影帮助每位患者探索自我认知之处，并理解其与父母或配偶之间的一些矛盾冲突。
