Abby

a.k.a. Possess My Soul

a.k.a. Black Exorcist

Abby doesn't need a man anymore... the Devil is her lover now!

"Although raggedly produced and often slipshod in its execution, there is are a number of interesting ideas at play in Abby that the film does not deserve its status as a camp blaxploitation Exorcist ripoff." - Film Bunnies

"It's a pretty fun and entertaining film; well-acted by the leads and sometimes hilarious." - The Bloody Pit of Horror

"See this with others. It's an (unintentional) scream!!" - Bad Movie Night

The story of a woman possessed...

Archaeologist and preacher, William Marshall (Blacula) unknowingly brings back a demon from his recent trip to Africa and unleashes it on his minister son's wife, Abby (Carol Speed).  The wholesome Abby is soon swearing, spewing, and coming on to strangers while beginning the expected demon possession transformations.  Can her husband and father-in-law stop the demon before the transformation is complete, or will poor Abby go through life speaking in a demonic tone while spewing gibberish and amusing anti-Christian sentiments?  

One of the better possession flicks to come to drive-ins across America, Warner Bros. sued over similarities to The Exorcist and won, sending Abby into a void where it's stayed to this very day.  Never released to video, this film has been lovingly restored by the American Genre Film Archive.
