Demons
Dir. Lamberto Bava
1985, Italy, 89 min
Rated 18A (Unrated)
Welcome to the most life-enriching Italian terror-party of 1985. Produced by Dario Argento (Suspiria) and directed by Lamberto Bava, Demons follows a panorama of punks, preppies, and ne’er-do-wells as they get trapped in a movie theater and possessed by gut-shredding Satanic demonoids. Featuring songs by Mötley Crüe and Billy Idol, gloopy effects, and the iconic Geretta Geretta in a lead role, this is the most fun you’ll ever have in a movie theater while watching a movie about beasties on the loose in a movie theater.
Content warning: This film contains scenes of violence and gore, as well as immersive and loud sound.
Demons 2
Dir. Lamberto Bava
1986, Italy, 91 min
Rated 18A (Unrated)
Demons 2 finds producer Dario Argento (Suspiria) and director Lamberto Bava re-teaming to deliver the most essential Italian terror-party of 1986. A high-rise apartment building full of families, fitness buffs, and party animals watch a movie-within-a-movie on TV that’s also a sequel to Demons. But before long, the evil escapes and turns the real world into a living hell. Demons 2 is a joyful, meta-enhanced goreblast that mutilates logic and delivers exactly what we want: outrageous goop, a rad post-punk soundtrack, and a demon dog with a demon puppet living inside of it. To quote the movie’s original tagline: “Let’s party!”
