Demon House

On the night of Halloween, the hoodlums Vince (Kris Holdenreid), his vulgar girlfriend Lois (Tara Stone) and their friends Nick (Gregory Calpakis) and Reggie (Joel Gordon) are driving around in the van of Orson (Christian Tessierare). They see the cheerleader Holly (Stephanie Bauder) trying to fix her car and they offer a ride to Holly and her friend Abbie (Patricia Rodriguez).

They stop in a convenience store to buy beer and the clerk suspects of the group and points a shotgun to them but Vince takes the weapon and dominates the situation. But two police officers come to the place and Vince accidentally shots one of them when the clerk grabs his hair. The other policeman shots Reggie in the stomach, but they succeed to escape from the store. But the van is shot on the gas tank and Vince decides to stop the vehicle in the infamous Hull House, considered a cursed place, instead of taking Reggie to the hospital, using the shotgun to force Nick and the other teenagers to follow him. But the place is not abandoned and the demon Angela (Amelia Kinkade) meets them in an human form. Meanwhile, the officer was wearing bulletproof vest and was not wounded and the veteran Lieutenant Dewhurst (Vlasta Vrana) discovers that the clerk is lying after watching the surveillance tape. Dewhurst track them down while the group discovers the truth about the Hull House.

"Night of the Demons III" is flawed, but not as bad as indicates many reviews. I saw this movie for the first time on 24 February 2000 on VHS and I have just seen it again. The story has a poor development of the characters and it is difficult to understand why Nick hangs around with Vince, Lois and Orson. The fate of Abbie, Lieutenant Dewhurst and Reggie are not fair since they are not evil like Vince, Lois and Orson. But the movie entertains considering the budget. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "A Casa do Diabo" ("The Demon House")

Except for a later remake of the original movie, the "Night of the Demons" series came to an end at this point, and if you ask me, it wasn't a moment too soon. It goes wrong in just about every area you can think of. It's a really cheap affair, from cinematography that at times resembles camcorder footage to tacky CGI effects. The tone of the movie is really slow and downright boring at times - it takes a little more than half of the movie before the characters find they are in serious trouble. But probably the worst thing about the movie are the characters. Except for the law enforcement officers, ALL the character in the movie act incredibly stupid and annoying. I simply didn't care whether they would live or die. Well, actually I DID want them all to die since they were very unpleasant. There is some welcome nudity, but there isn't a terrible amount, and what is displayed isn't exactly spectacular. Thank goodness there wasn't a part four.

Night of the Demons 3 is not a great movie but not as bad as the reviews here say. the acting is so bad, the story is kind of dumb but its a decent movie, nowhere near as good as part 2 but to be honest a little better then part 1.all and all not a bad trilogy i give Night of the Demons part 3 6/10

Weak followup to NOTD2, with Angela back for one more go-round, this time versus a bunch of young punks who rob a store and shoot a cop. They take refuge at Hull House, which they will soon learn to regret. Some decent nudity, sexy situations and actually more special effects than in the first two flicks combined, but weak on everything else. I am glad Mimi Kincaide got to play Angela in all three movies, even though she was getting noticeably older and heftier by the time this second sequel was made. I imagine the filmmakers must have been very tired of the franchise by this point, and it shows. Not a scare to be had.

Well, oh, man. LOL! I'm sorry, just I had never really expected before to get into these "Night of the Demons" movies. I think it's because I just had the opportunity which was cool. For a horror movie, sometimes I like it to be a little cliché and cheesy. You've got the bad acting, some scary moments, sex, drugs, alcohol, and unnecessary violence. I just loved the love story between the rebel and the head cheerleader. They were in the middle of getting killed but when they get a minute alone, they're all like "Oh, what would the head cheer leader want with a punk like me?" and they kiss! LOL! So beyond cheesy and unreal, but you get your kicks out of it.

I think I was just in a good mood and I was excited to see the third installment into this trilogy. Is it a movie for all? Heck no and it's not Oscar material. It's just for the horror fans who want to get a little kick out of the horror genre. Angela's back in action and she's ready to throw one "hell" of a party! Happy Halloween!
