DEMONS II (1986)
“The sequel to the gore-drenched nightmare you didn’t survive — this time, the terror comes home!”
Lamberto Bava’s follow-up dials down the raw savagery of the original in favor of slick apartment interiors, aerobics class chaos, and one of the cheesiest endings ever piped into a living room.
The ideas are solid: TV becomes the new demon gateway, and your birthday girl tantrum might just summon hell. But as the blood dries and the synths rise, what’s left is a stylish shell with half the teeth.
Come for the demon baby, stay for the MTV music video style ending. Just don’t expect the apocalypse to stick.
2.5 out of 5 – “Like watching Demons 1 on cable… edited for content and brought to you by a hair gel commercial.”
