Night of the Demons (2009)

A remake of Kevin Tenney's eighties classic. Although this slicker take has a bigger budget and a better cast it doesn't have that film's charm and get's lost in running around in indistinguishable darkness during it's last twenty minutes and yet again i was willing it to end.

Up to then it had been good fun. Essentially it's the same story as the original in which Angela (Shannon Elizabeth) hosts a Halloween night party at an old mansion and once there becomes a demon who kills or transforms the guests into other demons.

This has a cracking soundtrack from the likes of Wednesday 13, Goatwhore 45 Grave and best of all Type O' Negative whose Black No. 1 plays as Shannon Elizabeth gets it on with Bobbi Sue Luther.

The film proves another nail in the acting coffin of Edward Furlong but genre stalwarts Tiffany Shepis and Linnea Quigley, who once again flashes her tutu'd cheeks, have brief cameos.

Bloody Disgusting on the dvd cover say the film is "Loud, brash, sexy and gory" which it is. It's also a little bit shit too.
