Watchlist:
It's been some time since Father Jebedaiah Mayii exorcised the Devil from little Nancy Aglet, who is now grown up with a husband and two children of her own. But the prince of darkness wants to go a second round and has returned to repossess her! With Father Mayii unwilling to help, Father Luke Brophy tries his best to help Nancy, even when TV's Ernest Weller plans to air the exorcism live on TV.
Critical Reception & Ratings
Repossessed, the 1990 supernatural comedy horror film directed by Bob Logan, had a mixed critical reception. While some praised its irreverent humor and blend of genres, others found the film uneven in its execution. The film did not receive any major awards recognition, but it has maintained a cult following over the years, with an IMDb rating of 6.2/10 and a Rotten Tomatoes score of 58% indicating a moderately positive audience response.
Why you might like this:
Fans of Leslie Nielsen's deadpan humor and over-the-top comedic style will love Repossessed, the 1990 horror comedy directed by Bob Logan. With a delightfully absurd premise - the Devil returning to repossess a woman he'd previously exorcised - the film blends genres to hilarious effect, featuring Nielsen's iconic performance as the priest trying to stop the supernatural mayhem.
About

A parody of The Exorcist (1973), in which Blair had previously starred, the film follows a woman who becomes possessed for the second time in her life while viewing a prosperity gospel television program. The film features numerous gags based on The Exorcist, such as the green-vomit and head-spinning scenes, and real-life events such as the televangelist scandals of the 1980s.
