So far this year my list has been short on gore, demonic possession and
Italian horror, so why not cover all 3 with Lamberto Bava’s 1985
splatter classic, Demons? A film that very much feels like an unofficial
Evil Dead sequel, the bloody action takes place in a movie theater that
is unleashing demonic spirits into the audience through a possessed
film…or something. It doesn’t matter because the low budget but
innovative shocker manages to be fun, scary and gory all at the same
time, making it a true triple threat. Look for a weird cameo from my
favorite Italian horror director Michele Soavi, who directed The Church,
an unofficial sequel to this film. There’s also Demons 2, which isn’t
half bad if you just can’t get enough demons.
