Halloween Picks: Night of the Demons


Night of the Demons (1988)

A Halloween Gore Fest made in the late 1980s by filmmaker Kevin Tenney, and stars scream Queen Linnea Quigley and Amelia Kinkade as Angela Franklin.

Amelia is throwing a Halloween party in Hull House which is the local haunted house that used to be a crematorium. After the partygoers hold a séance to raise the ghosts in the house they end up raising a demon that after possessing Angela it begins possessing the other party goers.

Night of the Demons reeks of the 1980s and features much macabre humor that works for the flick as well as gore and blood.

My favorite part of the film is the Old man and his wife in the epilogue with the apple pie.   

Night of the Demons inspired two sequels and a remake with a sequel in production. They are worth checking out but they don’t live up to the original

9 Dead Bodies

4 Breasts (You will remember the lipstick scene)

8 Beasts

Coffin Crushing

Lipstick to the breasts

Razor Blades to the throat

Heads Roll

Other limbs Roll



Night of the Demons 2 (1994)

Taking place six years after the events in the previous film All of the previous Demons have all been sent away but Angela and we are introduced to Angela’s little sister Melissa aka Mouse. Angela and Mouse’s parents went insane and committed suicide sending Mouse to a Catholic boarding school where she is bullied by her classmates.

A small group of students after getting into trouble with Sister Gloria are unable to attend the school dance and decide to throw their own party at Hull House.



After leaving Hull House Resident Mean Girl Shirley takes the famous lipstick with her from the house and that allows Angela to leave Hull House and attack the party and kidnap her little sister bringing her back to Hull House pursued by her classmates from the school that have to face off against both Angela and her Demonic Minions.

Night of the Demons 2 is what it is. Despite receiving a limited theatrical release it was really intended for the video boom of the late 80s and early 90s. Despite the lack of effort it remains one of the better flicks of the time and it is a good watch.

Look for a then rarely known Christine Taylor in a relatively small role.

Also try to ignore the “Decapating Faith” Scene in the flick

7 Dead Bodies

10 Breasts

2 ½ Stars



Night of the Demons 3 (1997)

Amelia Kinkade returns one final time in the role of Angela in the 3rd chapter of the Night of the Demons Trilogy.

Released in the UK as Demon House, Night of the Demons 3 follows a small group of teenagers that end up getting caught up in a hold up and then they seek refuge in Hull House. Naturally Angela appears and she is up to her old tricks.
One of the Harder to find titles Night of the Demons 3 isn't highly regarded in the series but it is definetly worth taking a look at.

Night of the Demons (2009)

Night of the Demons was given the full remake treatment in 2010.

Featuring a new cast Shannon Elizabeth taking over the role of Angela. She is joined by fellow horror actors Monica Keena, Diora Baird, Bobbi Sue Luther, and Edward Furlong who in this flick looks like he had been hitting the bottle far too much but it however works for the character which makes me believe that it could have been done for the movie.

The plot of the remake follows a rave type party abandoning the Hull House Mortuary used in the other films the remake is a mansion owned by Evangeline Broussard who held a party there in 1925 that ended with the death of many of her guests.

Angela who is trying to make her rent is holding a party that is promptly broken up by the police and the character of Collin (Furlong) who intended to sell drugs to the party guests to get out of trouble with a local drug dealer returns to the house to retrieve the drugs that he stashed when the cops arrived he finds his ex-girlfriend and her friends and their dates who also have returned to the house.

In the meantime Angela was bitten by a skeleton that they have all discovered and Angela is possessed becoming the lead demon.

Eventually the other partygoers are possessed and some in interesting ways resulting in another Halloween Night mayhem.

The demons in this flick are far different than the other movies as in this flick they can manipulate time and make it appear as if the night has ended and take it back to the real time that it really is.

Night of the Demons is definitely a modern day remake. It has far more of an edge to it than the other movies in the series.

The Lipstick scene still remains and an added tough was added if you know what I mean and I think you do.

Linnea Quigley who played the role of Susanne in the original makes a cameo in this film but there is no sign of Amelia Kinkade.

I still recommend the original but the remake is a good movie in its own right
