The way that this scene connects with the first (fake) one, and the comparison of crucified, bloody Jesus to the tied up, bloody Lina, is just awesome. Jess is so much better than most people realize!

I actually think there’s a lot to be said, of Franco’s movies in general but of Exorcism in particular, about the performative and public nature of sex, particularly bondage. He’s obsessed with S&M stage shows, and this “black mass” is notably great.
