DEMON WIND Review On "Violent Maniac's Cage"

DEMON WIND

(1990, USA)

DIRECTED BY: Charles Phillip Moore.

A horror film too polished for its own good. The characters all looking like they are recovering from the eighties and they're acting being incredibly unconvincing. Corny dialogue, horrible special effects and bad editing make this a most unpleasant and extremely fall asleep while watching worthy film. Its almost like the film company wanted a film which wouldn't gain big success but also wouldn't please the low budget gore crowd, what audience exactly were they aiming for? I'll be damned if I know.

The film is about a man who goes to his grandparents cabin to find out what happened to them, of course he brings along some friends for victims. This tries to be along the lines of Evil Dead and Night Of The Living Dead with zombies and demon spirits possessing corpses it doesn't work for a second. A couple of interesting characters which are magicians have a non horror cliche ridden moment which strangely enough turns into a horror cliche where they know a demon is out there but go out anyway. Another one to add to your movies to avoid list.

Rating: 1 Skull
