What is the Allure of The Exorcist??!

Really more of an opinionated question... but still!

I've seen The Exorcist twice and can never, EVER get into it! I've seen it on hundred's of "Best Horror Movie's" lists... and I seriously wouldn't even put it in the top one hundred... and I haven't even seen a hundred horror movies!!!

So, I just want an honest answer from all of you "Exorcist" fans out there... what do you like about this boring, overly-religious/pretentious film?

It might just be my teenage struggles with religion talking... but seriously I don't get the hype! Someone help me understand!!!
