Repossessed (1990)
8/10
Is she once again possessed, or is it just PMS?
25 April 2020
This is a rather unique parody film, as it not only spoofs The Excorcist, it's actually a comedic sequel!

Linda Blair returns, as the same character of Regan, but has changed it to Nancy and is now grown up, married and has two kids. One night something happens and her concerned husband calls the priests while the kids bet on it just being PMS.

Leslie Neilson enters the picture as Father Mayi when younger priest Father Luke Broher brings him out of retirement to once again rid Nancy/Regan of the devil possessing her inside.

The film is filled with slapstick humor, parody, spoofs of other films and is certainly not the low rated garbage Imdb has been plagued with on this film. Just because it's not a Zucker/Abraham spoof film, doesn't mean it's not good. It's certainly a hundred times better than 2001, a space travesty or Rent a Kid.

If you haven't seen this yet, and do enjoy the likes of The Naked Gun, Airplane/Flying High, Hot Shots, Spyhard etc.. then this one should not leave you disappointed. Unless you're intelligence is as low as someone who thinks a movie like this doesn't work because it came out 12-13 years after the excorcist, calling it too late, and thinking it would work better had it been released in 1979 when Nancy/Regan surely would've had teenage kids and a husband at that time!

Ignore low rated reviews, this is one movie that's very underappreciated and a hidden Leslie Neilson gem that spoof lovers will definitely agree it's way under it's deserved rating here.
