* MassHypnosis: Late in the film, Luke realizes that Satan wanted to make a TV spectacle out of the exorcism so he could possess everyone who was watching the broadcast.


Added DiffLines:

* TakeMeInstead: Parodied. Father Luke and then Father Mayii demand Satan to leave Nancy's and then Luke's body and offer their own in its place. They also switch clothes for some reason and [[ManIFeelLikeAWoman grow breasts]]. Satan in Father Mayii's body then attacks Nancy and takes over her body again, so the switcheroo accomplished absolutely nothing.

Seventeen years after [[CaptainErsatz Nancy Aglet's]] (Creator/LindaBlair) exorcism, she has settled down with her family and Father Jedediah Mayii (Creator/LeslieNielsen) has peacefully retired. However, one night while watching TV with the family, Nancy begins to slowly be possessed by Satan again. The (inept) Father Luke Brophy (Creator/AnthonyStarke) is called in to see it for himself, when Satan manifests himself once again. Along the way, naturally, HilarityEnsues. Especially in the form of a GreedyTelevangelist husband (Creator/NedBeatty) and wife (Creator/LanaSchwab) who seek to televise Nancy's exorcism.

* GreedyTelevangelist: Ernest and Fanny Weller, a husband and wife team spoofing the Bakers, are happily planning to televise the possessed Nancy Aglet's exorcism (whom Ernest doesn't even believe to be possessed). The couple are eager for the number of converts, and thus donations, the special will bring in for their church and even try to give Satan some tips on how to put on a better show for their audience. This all backfires when it turns out Satan was merely using them to get access to a massive television audience he could then possess via the airwaves.
