Repossessed Audience Reviews

MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
CitizenCaine With Repossessed, The Exorcist saga comes full circle. Linda Blair returns as a suburban housewife repossessed by the devil in the form of special effects leaving a television screen. Leslie Nielsen lends an aura of credibility to this spoof as the priest eventually summoned to once again do battle with the possessed Blair. Blair is actually much better in this film than she was in Exorcist II: The Heretic. A spoof of televangelists Jim and Tammy Faye Baker is hilarious. Ned Beatty adds little to his characterization of Baker, but the actress playing Tammy Faye, Lana Schwab, is absolutely hilarious, especially with the dog Foo Foo. The film is full of sight gags galore, some were hilarious and some were groaners. Among the better gags were the "could you pull your dress down?" gag, the tire gag, and the sprinkler gag. The young kids with smart ass remarks has become a cliché in these films already. The ending is not very satisfying either. Several cameo appearances throughout the film keep things hopping, including Murray Langston, Robert Fuller, Jake Steinfeld, Army Archerd, exercise guru Jack Lalanne, Wally George, Jesse Ventura, Gene Okerlund, Ian Abercrombie, and the dynamic Julie Strain. *1/2 of 4 stars.
FilmFanInTheHouse Repossessed (1990, Dir. Bob Logan) It's been some time since Father Jebedaiah Mayii (Nielsen) exorcised the devil from little Nancy Aglet (Blair), but now Nancy has grown up and has a family, the demon returns and repossesses Nancy. With Father Mayii unwilling to help, Father Luke Brophy (Starke) tries his best to help Nancy, even when TV's Ernest Weller (Beatty) plans to air the exorcism live on TV.Repossessed is one of the few spoof movies which actually focuses' on just one movie. Whilst there are a few jokes which only those who've seen the Exorcist would understand, Repossessed doesn't provide much to make it an excellent spoof movie.I hate Rock 'n' Roll! - Nancy Aglet (Linda Blair)
gcd70 Written and directed by Bob Logan, this comedy-spoof of "The Exorcist" is an extremely lame attempt at Zucker/Abrahams/Zucker ("Top Secret", "Flying High") hilarity. The plot is awful and manages to raise about two laughs. I will confess I have not seen "The Exorcist", though I don't see how this would have helped.Leslie Nielsen played Father Mayii, while Linda Blair took the opportunity to send her self up as the "possessed" person in question. Also starred the talented Ned Beatty, who has been infinitely better than this."Re-possessed" is utter garbage, and I refuse to write anything more, for fear people may get the impression that I gave the film serious thought.Sunday, September 1, 1991 - Video
Lee Eisenberg OK, so we all know that Leslie Nielsen stars in the silliest parodies. It seemed inevitable that he would eventually star in an "Exorcist" spoof. What makes "Repossessed" especially eye-opening is that it's got Linda Blair spoofing her own famous role. So, as they just want to be as goofy as possible, much of the humor revolves around projectile vomiting (you'd better have a strong stomach for this one). Aside from that, they poke fun at what were then current events, namely with Ned Beatty as a Jim Bakker-resembling clergyman; there's also Oliver North having a memory problem, Sean Penn having a short temper, and a little something about Morton Downey. Oh, and of course they admit that they're in a movie at one point.Yes, it's basically low humor, but they're not afraid to do whatever they want. You gotta love this one. And the next time that someone asks "May I?", you know what to say.
