LastingAware The greatest movie ever!

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

BA_Harrison While ex-marine turned psychic Bill Carson investigates the abduction and murder of a 14-year old girl, the hulking maniac responsible is busy stalking his next victims, gorgeous 18-year old brunette Jo (Zoli Markey) and her pretty blonde cousin, nursery teacher Mary (Jennifer Holmes).I understand how this film has garnered so many negative reviews—it's cheap-looking, virtually gore-less, way too dark in places, way too slow in others, features far too many inexplicable shots of the ocean crashing over rocks, and stars Cameron Mitchell—not the sort of thing that would appeal to most sane viewers.I, on the other hand, found it to be fun, partly because I've been watching a lot of cruddy horror this October and my tolerance for crap is probably at an all time high, and partly because I like the fact that the film is unpredictable and the true nature of the killer is kept a mystery (we never find out why he wears clawed gloves, yet kills using the old 'polythene bag on the head' trick).Mostly though, I enjoyed the film because the killer's latest intended victims are a couple of hotties who have no qualms about showing some skin: Jo strips off and slips into stockings and suspenders to treat lucky boyfriend Dean (Craig Gardner), giving the viewer an eyeful as she does so, and, during the tense finale, Mary abandons her dressing gown to fool the 'demon' and makes a run for it wearing nothing but a silky pair of knickers.Given the undeservedly poor ratings it's received so far, I'm going to be generous and award The Demon a probably-higher-than-it-really-deserves score of 6.5 out of 10 (rounded up to 7 for IMDb).

sb88 The Demon really doesn't have much going for it. The lighting is awful, dialogue is ridiculous in some spots, and some things in it just make no sense (you've got to love the random shots of waves crashing onto rocks).At least at the beginning there's something slightly different going on. The killer kidnaps a family's daughter and so they enlist the help of a psychic gifted with ESP (Cameron Mitchell). Now, I'd like to think that Mitchell is a good actor but it's really hard to judge when he's given ridiculous things to do and say ("I get feelings sometimes. Vibes, as the kids might say.")Sure, it's not very good at all, but the least they could have done was not abandon this part of the story. Cameron and the kidnapping plot end up almost being dropped completely, leading us to the story that takes over the rest of the film.Ever hear the one about the guy in the white mask who stalks some girls?Yeah, that happens here too. To be fair, this portion isn't as bad despite being a blatant ripoff. The girls are decent at acting and serve the dual purpose of being easy on the eyes. There's a few suspenseful scenes and the climax isn't all that bad despite being completely wacky. That doesn't make up for everything else, though. In the end, The Demon mostly just provides moments of boredom and stupidity.

Zbigniew_Krycsiwiki This South African flick seems like two short films (maybe even unfinished films?) strung together, with no connection between either one of them. The first part of the movie was about a missing girl and a psychic guy trying to find her and her abductor. The psychic is just filler material, as he's killed probably a half an hour before the ending of the movie. Most of the photography in the first few scenes consists of single, unedited master shots (wide angle) with very little in the way of editing, which is why I say that it looks almost like an unfinished film. Then a second movie dealing with a killer stalking another girl starts up, with no obvious connection between the two. Better photographed but still dark, we mostly see two hot girls going about their daily lives in stupefyingly boring detail. One hour and 13 minutes into this 90 minute movie it does kind of pick up, with a little bit of suspense, albeit the climax is just stupid: a nude girl wearing a shower curtain over her head stabs the killer with a pair of scissors after blinding him by spritzing him with a shower nozzle?! What? The dark haired girl (Zoli Marki) is gorgeous, and the blonde girl (whose name I can't figure out) is also cute and has very sexy green eyes, and they both appear topless several times throughout- that, and the little bit of suspense in the last 15 minutes is all this movie had going for it. The fact that the killer is never identified doesn't help matters either, he's just another anonymous killer in a mask (which appears and disappears between shots) stalking 20-something year old girls for no apparent reason. Congratulations to anyone who can figure out what the title has to do with the movie, because the "demon" in the title was just some guy in a mask wearing some kind of claw thing on his hands.

Hitchcoc Without getting into personalities, it's another film about a psychotic killer. These people are pretty much machines in these movies. The thing you need to do is pick vulnerable women, get to know them and their lives, and then thrown this guy in. He kills some, some he doesn't. There is also some superfluous nudity and titillation for the adolescents. But the film is just pretty dull. The copy I had was so full of dropouts and forced pauses that it just wears on. The real detractor is the darkness. Was the original print so dark. There are times when 20 seconds pass and we can't really see anything happening. There are things happening, but you get the point. This is so much like so many threat films that it offers little new to the viewer.
