Pleasantly formulaic '80s horror pic. More fun than Tenney's initial success -- the overrated _Witchboard_ -- with slick photography and good Steve Johnson makeup FX; too bad the characters are so obnoxious. Linnea does some remarkable new things with a tube of lipstick.

God help me, I liked it. Not sure why. The makeup effects are surprisingly good, especially for a low budget 80's schlockfest. The story's about as cliched as you can get but it's still fun.

Took a really long time to get to the good stuff. It gets good when Bauhaus starts playing. Cheesy acting and dialogue but has that 80's charm that can't be denied. Really funny demon voices.

pretty bad. but it's got linnea quigley and that infamous lipstick scene is definitely one of those indelible images of trashy '80s horror cinema.

Anyone wanna buy a slightly used Night of the Demons dvd?

Really campy 80s horror flick about a big group of cliche stereotype teenage characters who break into an abandoned funeral home to party on Halloween. They hold a seance and awaken a demon who possesses the kids one by one. Takes a while to get going and the gore is kinda cheesy, but it has a few fun moments. Plus, Linnea Quigley's tits are always a welcome sight (she spends the whole movie whoring it up in a pink babydoll dress and six inch heels).

Aside from a neat animated opening-credits sequence, this movie's sole saving grace is the always welcome presence of scream queen Quigley, who makes a memorable rearview entrance here and sticks around long enough to perform one of her patented topless scenes before transmogrifying into a screeching devil-creature further burdened by poor orthodontal work.

Gets a bit repetitive towards the end (how many times can Rodger and Judy almost escape?), but otherwise this is typical dumb 80s horror fun.

Okay Movie

Better served if it had been only 90 minutes, but once it really gets moving I wouldn't touch a frame. For enthusiast this has "Halloween staple" written all over it by taking all the good genre conventions and doing them well while mixing in a few elements of its own. From FADE IN to FADE OUT this is really a horror fan's fevered dream come true.

What an abysmal movie. I'm not sure if I saw the original or the sequel, but judging from the quality of what I watched, I doubt it matters. It was shit.

Quite atmospheric and charming.

We need to spend money on FX. We really need to spend money on FX. We need a rewrite, pay a writer. We need PA's and AD's to keep the actors coordinated, and in fighting condition... Sorry, Kev, you blew 90% of your budget on that fucking Bauhaus song. That song is already 6 years old, what the hell were you aiming for? Relevance? All 10 surviving goths in 1988 who don't listen to The Cure exclusively-- is that a demo?
