Wear the mask and become a DEMON

Advantages: Very goring if you like that sort of thing
Disadvantages: Not a brilliant story line a bit vague

...end only to find the demons got out and its spread all over so again try to escape that. A truly grusome film to watch but if you like that sort of thing then this is the film for you. I would definately keep my copies for that reason. I own the box set of both films so i have a bonus disk called the interview which i have not seen as my other half doesn't like the films they creeeep him out so maybe in the future srry guys can only say its an interview ...

Review of Demons (Box Set) (Special Edition) (DVD)

Gargling with aloe vera washing up liquid?

Advantages: Highly entertaining
Disadvantages: Dodgy special effects and acting

...the audience to attack the demons - I don't think he was supposed to be funny, but he was. The rest of the crew are more or less as bad; it's just we don't get to see much of them before they turn into demons!! . The film was made in the eighties, so I wasn't expecting the special effects to be all that good. Certainly, the demon get-up wasn't brilliant and the teeth looked like they came straight out of a joke shop. Then there was the green gook ...
...demonified - it honestly looked like aloe vera washing up liquid and was just funny. On the other hand, the slashing was quite realistic and there was one horrible scene where a woman's hair was ripped off her scalp - that actually made me feel quite ill. On the whole, I'd say the effects weren't bad for the time. . There is a rating of 18 on this film and it was banned in some European countries, so it obviously isn't appropriate for children. To ...

Review of Demons (Dubbed) (The Director's Cut) (DVD)

Chilly Romance

Advantages: Interesting and thoughtful horror movie
Disadvantages: The movies big secret is given away in both the cover and DVD menue

...a result his debut feature Macabre needed to be something very special indeed. Mario Bava the director of movies Blood And Black Lace, Bay Of Blood, and Planet Of The Vampires had a unique eye for the camera, he knew how to work on suspense and how to capture a scene perfectly, and while this is not a name that many are familiar with, his influences can be felt in modern day blockbusters like Scream, True Romance and even the James Bond movies. Son ...
...loosely on a true story Macabre follows Jane Baker (Bernice Stegers – To Play The King, Ellis Island, Xtro) a housewife trapped in uninspiring marriage. Jane lives a double life, one half with her husband and two children, the other in a rented apartment where she meets her up with her lover Fred, for afternoons of passion. This balance allows Jane to enjoy her life to the full. But cheating is a chancy affair and on one fateful day balance is shifted ...

Review of Macabre (DVD)

The cause of Childhood Nightmares!

Advantages: Good special effects, lots of gore, decent soundtrack.
Disadvantages: a bit lacking in the actual plot, not as good as the original

...The special effects on the demons are really quite good, especially considering this made during the 80s, and i when i was younger i did find them really scary. I must say the Sally demon has particularly good effects, especially during her transformation! Pulsing veins, growing nails, loss of teeth, to be replaced by sharp demon fangs... all good stuff!!! There are also plenty of gory moments and deaths, including a woman savaged by a demon dog!! ...
