    • Trivia
      When Father Mayii (Leslie Nielsen) is speaking to the class, sitting in the front row dressed in a different outfit, and with her hair done differently and wearing glasses is Linda Blair playing another role in the film.
    • Goofs
      Nancy's shoes change from dark slippers to yellow pumps when she runs from the TV to the bedroom.
    • Quotes

      Nerd Student: Father Mayii?

      Jebedaiah Mayii: Yes?

      Nerd Student: Have you adhered strictly to your vow of celibacy?

      Jebedaiah Mayii: Yes, I have.

      Nerd Student: Me too.

      Jebedaiah Mayii: I'm not surprised. Mine was by choice.

    • Crazy credits
      The film opens with a stereo effects 'bumper' with the logo "BFD"; a parody of the Lucasfilm "THX" sound system bumper.
    • Alternate versions
      The US PG-13 rated version cuts out some nudity.

    A good idea that came out too late
    Like Spaceballs, Repossessed was released too long after the film it is spoofing. 17 years is a long time, especially for us in the UK, where The Exorcist has only recently (1999) been released on video for the first time since pre-video censorship (c. 1984). Aside from that, too many jokes miss their targets, and too many subjects are lampooned. Some sequences are genuinely funny, such as Ernest & Fanny's TV Show (a brilliant spoof of hypocritical TV evangelists). Most, however, are not - the hospital scene is just not funny. Nielsen, Blair and Beatty give it their best, whilst Anthony Starke spends the whole film looking like he's just trodden in something unsavoury. Watch it if you will, B for effort, C- for results.
