I had heard talk that Argento was actually responsible for a lot of the direction in the first move. Sounded like bullshit to me, untill i saw what Bava has done with the second Demons without him. Cheese. Un-convincing gore even for the time.
Well well Lamberto Bava dose it again, but this time he's lacking the true Argento influence the first one had. When you watch Demoni 1 you can tell Argento did most of the real work the camra angles the music even the actors in the film are Argento regulars! Bava took controll of the sequel and you can see it, like many of his other films it lacks real terror, he has GREAT premis here trapped in a high rise filled with demons!!! And he lets it fall flat. From Sally birthday party to the underground parking lot he had chance after chance to prove he's a great master or horror but he never bother to take this film to the plateau it could have been. Even with a few great shots like in the first one with the demons comming up the theater stairs glowing eyes this one has it's we're comming for you moment too. Theres a man and a women at the top of a stairwell and at the bottom there are demons looking up glowing eyes and then... they begin to race up the stairs after the two at the top. Creepy but thats about all there really is for scary in this one. I liked this movie for dozens of reason and disliked for the same I recomend it everyonw but watch the first one first. I give DEMONI 2
5 Urbano Barberinis out of 10 Urbano Barberinis...and if you don't know who he is he's the hero from the firat and second Demoni movie!
Not as good as the first but it has one of my favorite horror films scenes in it ever, which has been stolen from films like 28 days later and [REC].
There's a scene were the demons run up the apartment stairs, which was well done and a bit creepy I thought. You'll have to watch it to understand what I mean. I enjoyed it, but....and this is a big but (no jokes on my butt) that child who turns into a demon, then the little..thing...?? it constantly screams....over and over in every scene...i didn't find it scary at all just annoying, so annoying in fact i whizz that bit on.
Anyway te finale with the helicopter is so over the top, but I can't help but love it. It's in my classic collection along side the first film.
Give it a watch it's worth it.
