Featuring scream queen Linnea Quigley and with 5 minutes(!) of opening credits, this first installment of the trilogy wasn't as good as I had hoped. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't bad, especially since I saw the second one before I saw this one, and this one did have some "nifty" things in it. But, well, I'll just tell you what happens and let you decide for yourself... Angela is the weirdest girl at her school (I love freaky chix heh heh) and she's throwing a little Halloween party at Hull House. You know with a name like that SOMEBODY died there at one point. Well, MANY people died there to be honest. Hull House used to be the home of a fellow necrophile (they fuck dead bodies) AND it was also the sight of a grizzly slaughter. The guest list for the party is basically a mix of preps and punx (I just like using the letter 'x'), and Angela's HOT friend Suzanne (Linnea Quigley, obviously!), who gives us a feast-for-the-eyes look up her ballerina costume at the store. Ah, out of the things life is lived for, pantie shots is DEFINITELY one of them! Well, a little party game mischief results in the release of an evil demon (are there any GOOD demons?!) who, after a little EVIL DEAD camera work, possesses Suze. In turn, she has a full-on lip lock with Angela (one of the other neccessitites of life, girls kissing) and starts spreading the demonic possession like a disease. As always, the group splits up into several couples to MAKE IT EASIER FOR THEM TO BE KILLED(!!!). Ange does a hot little dance, then bites off a guy's tongue and Suze slips a tube of lipstick into her left tit! This was probably THE most bizarre part of the movie. After a little more carnage, the cast gets hacked down to Judy, some greaseball, and a pussy-assed black dude against their newly demonic pals, but during a tussle on the rooftops (much different than a tiptoe through the tulips), Sal and Ange both fall off to their deaths. Judy is so wholesome and optimistic even after everything that happened, she makes me want to wretch! But, she busts open a gas pipe and uses it as a flamethrower, so she cant be all bad (or is it good?)! Well, Judy and the black guy make it past the walls holding them on the property, and past the underground stream that keeps the demons held back. Also the sunrise gives em extra help, ending the NIGHT OF THE DEMONS. Oh, and on a more entertaining side story, an old man who puts razorblades in apples is given his "just desserts" (for fuck's sake, I'm starting to sound like the damn Crypt Keeper!). MWA-AH-AH-AHA-HA-HA!
