Oh, no! Your best friend has been entranced by Pazuzu! Bummer! No need to call any specialists, though; just pull up your sleeves and you can deal with this yourself. In many works of fiction, the best way to free a possessed or cursed person is to simply beat the crap out of them. You won't need to worry about hurting your friend, either; it's just the curse / demon you're punching, not them. Once you punch them into unconciousness, they should wake up perfectly fine (albeit probably with a massive headache). Examples of Beat the Curse Out of Him include:

This is especially common in Video Games where combat is the standard reaction to anything anyway, and can result in making a new friend or getting a new player character. This comes up a lot in stories with a villain with a Dark and Troubled Past or a Freudian Excuse--it turns out their mothers, grandmothers, aunts, or somebody thought they were evil / cursed / possessed and tried to beat the evil out of them, or to prevent them from becoming evil (which is precisely what made them evil). Compare: Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!, Dying as Yourself (If the curse dies, but so does the cursee), and "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight for when the battle is with words. Mostly unrelated to Hollywood Exorcism. Examples of Beat the Curse Out of Him include:
