Demons(1985).
A young girl named Cheryl is taking a train ride and gets given two tickets for a free film screening at the gothic looking Metropol by a mysterious masked man. And her and her friend Kathy get more than they bargained for when the patrons turn into demons after one of them gets scratched by a cursed mask.
Directed by Lamberto Bava and produced by the legendary Dario Argento, this is one hell of an entertaining movie that mixes non stop horror and action with pounding heavy metal and Goblin's Claudio Simonetti.
Most of the cast though are pretty forgettable and badly dubbed, but I did notice a couple of familiar faces like Dario Argento's daughter Fiore from Phenomena and Nicolette Elmi as a sexy usherette. And not to between old favourite Bob from House By The Cemetery who makes a small cameo at the end.
Well recommended, with stand out scenes including a helicopter crashing through the roof of the cinema and a guy decapitating demons with a samurai sword on a motorbike. 8/10.
