rating: 5 Quotedemons 2, visitation from the pastQuote
i first ordered this out of nostalgia, as i seen all the movies as a teen years and years ago.....and i remember being scared out of my wits watching these films.....DEMONS 2 was nothing short of horrifying...AGAIN. oh, sure now that your older and wiser the special effect seen a little cheaper. but i admire the old way of effects...the storyline is plain creepy..being trapped by demons is just scary enough...but make them contagious and BOOM! class action. i love the old way of horror fimls, and i enjoy reliving them. if you would also like to, i'd suggest this movie and its predecessor.

I love reading reviews where people say this film had "bad editing" "plot holes" "bad acting." Reality Check: This is NOT "Gone with the Wind!" This is a horror film that does not pretend to be anything other than it is: A cheesy film filled with gore and a lot of in-your-face action. In addition, for those who think this film was any worse than the first film -- whatever. Same story -- just a different setting -- Demons creating more demons. Truth is: This is a highly entertaining Italian film. It is far better than many of the sub-par Italian horror flicks that have graced the silver screen. Being critical of this film is easy to do -- as is frying almost any horror film. This film is a decent watch. It is worth every minute of its 93 minute running time. June 4, 2007

rating: 4 Quotereally good...but for the fans!Quote
this movie is not for everybody. The fans of the first movie will like probably this movie but don't lose your time if you are never see the first movie. May 7, 2007

This movie is an utter crap fest! I remember watching this film as a kid. Back then it was a scarry experience, watching it now is just plain mind numbing. This movie is beyond bad, and while some campy films can be quite entertaining, this is definitelly not one of those movies. Horrible acting, laughable demon makeups, zero excitement for horror fans. Don't waste your money on this crap, rent it before you consider buying it. March 18, 2007

No, it's certainly not as good as the first one, but I did enjoy some of DEMONS 2. The beginning is cool enough, with the demon's resurrection and it's gaining access into Sally's apartment via the TV set. The tension and dread seem to build quite nicely. That is, right up to the scene where the kid-demon's chest pops open to reveal an idiotic, rubber demon puppet! Ugg! It reminded me of those stupid monsters in GHOULIES, HOBGOBLIN, or some other wretched '80s mess! The apartment building setting was interesting, but seemed to be mostly wasted on the few, precious bursts of action we actually get. I did like the weightlifter folks in the gym. They were hilarious and at least they put up a fight against the infernal invaders! The battle in the parking garage was ok too. Maybe I just expected D2 to be a bit more frightening and disturbing... January 19, 2007
