Brief Description  Repossessed (1990) is an American comedy-horror film written and directed by Bob Logan. The movie is a direct parody and spoof of the 1973 horror classic The Exorcist, famously bringing back its original child star to poke fun at the genre and 1980s pop culture. The film heavily relies on slapstick, spoof gags, and gross-out humor. It recreates and lampoons famous moments from the original film, such as head-spinning and green pea-soup vomiting, while mocking real-life 1980s televangelist scandals.

Plot:
Seventeen years after being freed from a childhood demonic possession by Father Jebedaiah Mayii, Nancy Aglet is now a grown-up suburban housewife and mother. Her peaceful life is upended when she gets "repossessed" by the Devil while watching a prosperity gospel television program. The entity demands a rematch with her original, now-weary and retired exorcist. When a young priest, Father Luke Brophy, realizes what has happened, he tries to enlist Father Mayii's help. Meanwhile, a pair of greedy, corrupt televangelists decide to exploit the situation by broadcasting the live exorcism on television to achieve massive ratings. The live TV studio becomes an absurd battlefield between the forces of good and evil.
