See How They Run

This might be the very worst film I ever sat through (well to the bitter end). It plays out like a third rate 'Evil Dead' with the most wooden acting and the very lamest special effects. There are just a handful of films I struggle to fined any merit in whatsoever and 'Demon Legacy' is unfortunately one.

This movie was OK, but not good. The acting was OK, and the story line was descent. While I love sexy sorority girls in horror movies, the movie lacked coherence and a sense of direction and purpose. There were numerous occasions during the course of the movie where it failed miserably to connect the dots. I found myself having to try to connect the dots myself on a board where the dots were scattered like the stars at night. As the movie was drawing to a close, a characters unceremoniously showed up from left field. Trying to make sense where certain characters fit into to the movie as a whole was like trying to hammer a round peg into a rectangular hole. In the end, the movie seems to fall flat like a cake made with no eggs. I rendered it a 4 because an honest effort was made to turn this B horror into a -A horror movie.

It could have been a good film, but the acting and effects were rubbish. The storyline had the potential to be good, but it failed. The effects were poor though I am amazed at how white the nightie managed to stay. No wonder they changed the name for the UK market.

Standard witch/demon fair. The demon girls were neat, not necessarily scary. Plot is similar to many other films, but it goes smoothly. Actresses are all very good looking and lead actress shows off her exemplary body numerous times.

I had never heard about this 2014 horror movie titled "Demon Legacy" prior to sitting down here in 2022 to watch it. And of course I had to watch it on the account of it being a horror movie that I hadn't already seen.

Director Rand Vossler delivered something that felt a tad too much inspired by the classic "Evil Dead" movies. But hey, if you haven't already seen the original 1981 "Evil Dead" movie then you might actually find a shred of enjoyment and entertainment in "Demon Legacy". However, I have seen "Evil Dead" many times, so "Demon Legacy" wasn't really cutting it for me.

The storyline in the movie was pretty straight forward, although somewhat on the generic and boring side, if I have to be honest. And I actually started to drift off around an hour into the foray. So yeah, this movie wasn't really entertaining me.

Of the entire cast ensemble in "Demon Legacy", I was only familiar with John Savage, and he wasn't in the movie for all that long. And that was a shame, because he could have spruced up the movie, and trust me, that was necessary, and the movie would have benefitted from having John Savage more on the screen.

Visually then "Demon Legacy" was adequate. I mean, you're not in for anything grand here in terms of special effects or CGI, but whatever special effects were in the movie actually served their purpose well enough. But again, a watered down "Evil Dead" movie is what comes to mind here.

If you are a newcomer to the horror genre, then you might get some kind of entertainment out of this 2014 horror movie. But for a horror veteran such as myself, then "Demon Legacy" was a mere walk in the park.

My rating of "Demon Legacy" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.
