Avis à la une
Repossessed is funny, and some scenes are very funny, but there are a lot of silly gags instead of funny ones. But the funny gags out shine the silly ones. I give this movie **1/2 out of ****
Linda Blair, Leslie Nielsen, Ned Beatty, and Anthony Starke star in this funny spoof of "The Exorcist" (which also starred Linda Blair). Linda Blair is Nancy Aglet who has been possessed by the devil. Leslie Nielsen is Father Mayii who has driven the devil out of Nancy before and is called upon once again to fight the devil. Ned Beatty is Ernest Weller, the evangelist who is trying to exploit the devil by making a television show out of her. If you like spoof movies then you should definitely see this one.
I saw REPOSSESSED on Comedy Central one night and while many may disagree with me on this one, I think that it is Linda Blair's best work. Both Linda Blair and Leslie Nielson are at their comedic best. The premise could have used a little work, but the movie seems to serve one purpose and one purpose only: to spoof THE EXCORCIST. I like that idea since I didn't like THE EXCORCIST that much and the movie spoofs it very well yet there needs to be more to the movie. It would have worked better if the movie spoofed several movies and not just a few. Though as I said before, it is a very funny movie with the two leads giving their best performances. The music and special effects are also top-rate along with the writing. I hope that there is a REPOSSESSED 2 sometime soon.
- She has an ungodly voice, maniacal facial expressions...
- That doesn't prove a thing, she could be related to Joe Cocker.
- No.
- Could it be she had PMS?
A comedy made as a sequel to a famous horror "The Exorcist". In the original movie, in 1973 devil takes possession of a girl named Reagan, while in "Repossessed" he takes the same person 17 years later, but here she is named Nancy. Linda Blair plays both roles, Nancy and Reagan... Nancy Reagan :D For her role in "The Exorcist" she got Golden Globe and Oscar nomination, while in her later performances she was nominated for the worst actress six times. The movie is full of typical Leslie Nielsen humor, references and parodies to everything and anything. To me, it was very entertaining and definitely worth watching, maybe even more than the original.
7,5/10
Leslie Nielsen stars in another spoof, this time parodying The Exorcist. Linda Blair returns and spoofs her own character, as Nancy Aglet, and is again possessed by the demon. As a result, Nielsen's character, Father Jebedaiah Mayii, is called upon to help vanquish the demon - all the while the exorcism is being broadcast on live TV by a sensationalist show.
As with any Nielson spoofs, there are lots of gags from start to finish, along with some slapstick humor and endless parodies of various movies, from The Wizard of Oz to Rambo III. It was nice seeing the return of Linda Blair and she does a good job in recreating her role as the possessed girl, inserting tastefully done humor when necessary. However, the plot did lose steam by the time the movie focused on the TV show broadcasting the exorcism, which I thought made the film become more like a game-show than a comedy spoof. Therefore, it's not the best of Nielson's spoofs, but still laughable nonetheless.

- GaffesAt around 10 minutes in, Nancy's shoes change from dark slippers to yellow pumps when she runs from the TV to the bedroom.
