Featured reviews
I'm not as overly enthusiastic as some other honest reviewers (the perfect tens with one review (we all know them) will never count as honest reviewers) that gave Demons a decent score. I found the story to be a bit of a mess, a bit boring, not fully exploited. The twist in the end was predictable, at least to me, it could have been more elebaroted to make it a better movie. The positive point would be the acting for me. There are some quality actors that make a movie watchable, but that doesn't mean the movie was good. To me it's just an average movie that I will probably have forgotten all about it by tomorrow.
Nicely done classic horror with a intelligence and depth in matters of spirituality. The cast is a big plus and the cinematography is excellent. Not a huge fan of flashbacks but they were handled well.
I went into this expecting a stupid exorcist rip off.Not at all the case. The story does revolve around an exorcism that already happened and everything that ensued from it and what led up to it.A lot of it told in flashbacks but plenty going on in the present too.The story is told at a nice quick pace and keeps you interested.A lot going on here and the acting is pretty good too except for the mother(but we can let that slide).All in all,a good solid movie. I definitely recommend!
It's not the first time when I see fake reviews appearing for a decent movie, probably because the movie didn't get enough attention, I don't know. Note to distributors or authors - you're just shooting yourself in the leg, especially when you have a solid material. Stop. Doing. That. People won't believe your movie is decent and you'll just bring the people who will rate it 1/10 not because of the movie, but because of the fake reviews.
Tagline is also somewhat misleading, it's not really your typical exorcist movie. The cover is somewhat amateurishly made, the movie itself is not like that at all. Why spending budget on making a good movie but not ever think about cover?
As for the movie, I'd say it's a solid mystery / psychological thriller, told through the two connected stories (present / past events). Also, the one about the past is either shot on film or has a grain filter added in post-production, in any case it's a great touch. It's intriguing and captivating, characters are nothing special, but are memorable and the actors do their job. I also like the acting and voice of Andrew Divoff, he's just as charismatic as he was in Hatred (2017) and he's also playing a religious fanatic here as well. By the end you'll learn why the movie is called "Demons" (how I said, it's not really your typical exorcist movie).
Worth a watch, maybe even two or three.

- TriviaDuring the swimming pool scenes I was the medical resource on set and it was in the blustry low 30's with plenty of wind and cold rain. It was totally amazing how the cast and crew stayed focused and on target even when there was a pool heater blow out. There was no solace from the cold as the doors on the mansion were wide open as well. Craft Services still managed to put out warm food despite the conditions. Dr. Rhiannon A.
