Summary: Hilarious!
Comment: I am a huge Leslie Nielson fan. I saw this movie years ago when it was first released. Mr. Nielson was in top form, and Ms. Blair was hilarious as well. I just had to admire her for making fun of herself and reprising her role from the original film. I don't think this movie would have worked without her.

Summary: A Unique Review . . .
Comment: Okay, so I first saw this movie on HBO down in Daytona Beach, in a Hilton hotel room, with my parents, at the age of nine, a year after Repossessed was first Released. I will be twenty four this year, have a college degree, and have a fabulous career. I have always kept fond memories of this movie in the back of my mind thanks to my mother who told me it was okay to look after Linda Blair puked on her family. When I opened my eyes again, the first thing I saw was the Statue of Liberty puking all over the place. A few years later I purchased Repossessed on a used VHS cassette from a video rental store that was going out of business. The rest is history. Anyway, this film and I have had quite a past beginning from a very early age, and I've come to the conclusion that you folks out there who hate this film need to lighten up. For God's sake, just laugh for once in your life. Sure, the humor may not be all that sophisticated, but what do you expect from projectile vomit? Can anyone out there simply put aside their preconceived notions for ninety minutes, and for once enjoy a film about mindless crap? Stop looking for a message. Stop looking for any continuity. Just sit back, and laugh at green puke for God's sake.

Summary: Fun With The Devil
Comment: I'd compare this movie favorably to "The Naked Gun" and "Airplane!" and their sequels. There were many funny scenes and a few flops which is par for the course with most of Leslie Nielsen's movies. Repossessed, however, had more potential than the others and it could have been the best of Nielson's parodies if more time had been taken to develop the material. The movie is uneven, but there are moments where it is incredibly funny. The boy with all the PMS jokes was certainly a high-point that should have been exploited a little more (even if those jokes are politically incorrect). (Come to think of it, the little brother in "Not Another Teen Movie" is very similar to this character.) The jabs at the television evangelicists were pretty funny too. In fact, the material which strayed the furthest from The Exorcist theme was probably the strongest. I'd say that this movie is definately worth watching, BUT it could have been SO much better! It's still a better than average movie and is worth about three and a half stars on a five star scale!

Summary: Satan Comes through the TV
Comment: It works for me.

This is a very dated comedy but it is good for a few laughs from those who might remember the cultural references. The emphasis is on "a few laughs". This movie certainly does not live up to the standard set by the NAKED GUN series or to that set by AIRPLANE. That's sad since it is from the same source and Leslie Nielsen plays the lead.

The story is of an exorcist who has gone into retirement after his last successful exorcism of a young girl. Many years later, that girl, now a woman, is repossessed while watching TV. The exorcist is reluctant to come out of retirement and tries to delegate the work to a young priest. The priest winds up getting help from a televangelist at first and then just about every other religious figure imaginable after that. Finally, it is the old exorcist who must save the day.

This show is filled to the brim with lowbrow comedy and sight gags. It is also full of pop and political cultural references from the era in which it was made. If you remember these, you will get a bit more out of it. It also helps to have seen the original EXORCIST.

This is not great comedy but it was somewhat amusing.

Summary: A great comedy and satire of the Exorcist
Comment: This was one funniest movies ever, Linda Blair probably needed the cash signs up to mock herself in this comedic satire of the Exorcist and other movies.

Man the jokes are so over the top, everything from the Ayatolla
in Iran to everyday American fads are mocked here.

The great touch was adding Jesse Ventura and Mean Gene for
commentary. Brilliant!!

Leslie Nielsen is at his best here as Father Mayi and Linda
Blair basically replaying her Exorcist character with much
more sick gags is funny.
