Hell yes _Night of the Demons_. Shoulda made fifty of these bloody things. The opening credits is always a highlight. So much stupid 80s schlocky fun to be had in this franchise, and never more so than in this, the original. _Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go._

"Night of the Demons" is a less than prestigious production and it seems to take much of its inspiration from films such as "The Evil Dead" (1981) with a small group of young people becoming trapped in a less than hospitable abandoned house where unspeakable evil dwells. There are admittedly some impressive make-up effects, but overall there is a listless quality to the whole proceedings and the mediocre shocks and scares just do not provide the sort of exciting pay-off they are obviously designed to produce. The lengthy chase sequences through the many dusty and shadowy hallways of Hull house are hampered by a strangely pedestrian pace and any genuine excitement is noticeably absent in this routine genre film which is much too easy to forget.
