Exorcist - the beginning or Dominion ??

Ok Movie buffs can some one explain this

Exorcist : The Beginning

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0204313/

Dominion : Prequel To the Exorcist

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0449086/

Same Story , Same lead Actor , Different Directors and Different Casts and Different Release dates.....very strange indeed

There's a possible explanation here...though I have no idea if it is in fact accurate.

Better explanation on Wikipedia

Fysh, that is indeed accurate.. a much documented story in the movie world!

Paul Shraeder was attached to do the film... studio shot it and all. The execs thought it was all a bit tame so got Renny Harlin to do pretty much a re-shoot. That was the one the studio released!

But Shraeder found a studio to release his version
