Night Of The Demon is the trash epic you have all been waiting for, it is the splatter gore equivalent of a John Waters film ; nasty , vile , and tasteless this is the Sasquatchplotation film to end them all. Hands down. Yes my babies, Bigfoot is here to stay! Fellas: keep those cocks in your pants. Chicks: Keep on those garter belts. Mr. Hairy is on a rampage and no one , not even girl scouts , are safe.
Our sordid tale opens straight away with Professor Nugent laying disfigured ; hanging between life and death in a hospital bed , his head covered in bandages. Poor Prof. is forced to recount , for a group of doctors and police officers , the atrocities that befell him and a group of college students one sunny weekend. The Prof you see had somehow gotten himself a copy of a Super 8 film of some creature slaughtering an innocent family , and naturally wants some of his fellow students to accompany him into the forest to investigate. Along the way , we the viewers , are treated to glorious tales of bigfoot slaughter that include; girl scout murder , a biker who has his big cock ripped off while urinating , bigfoot rape , and a couple killed while in the throws of passion in the back of a broke down van. While on their journey , the students come across a crazy old man who tells them that they need to visit " Crazy Wanda " if they want to know the " entire" story of Sasquatch and his exploits. Needless to say , the group does come across Crazy Wanda and in the end come face to face with Bigfoot and his bloody rampage.
There really are no words to describe the sheer amount of beautiful trash that is on full display in Night of the Demon , it really is that good.. There has not been a proper DVD release of the film as of yet ( for shame ) so the film looks glorious in all its tattered beauty. Sporting film burns and many , many flaws on the original print which gives Night of The Demon a dirty edge that warmed this little girls cold dark heart. Director ,
James C. Wasson , isn't a completed idiot behind the camera and knows how to frame a scene from time to time and create an overall general mood of sleaze that literally pours from every scene , staging all the action on a virtual hotbead of dirt covered shacks and dry desolate wooded areas. For instance , at the beginning of the film there is a very effective scene in which a scientist is camping and has his arm ripped off by the creature, only moments later the camera pans down to show a large " footprint" that begins to fill up with blood. SOLD!! Screenwriter Mike Williams on the other hand , oh my , is no Francis Ford Coppola. Some of the dialogue in Night Of The Demon is so hideously mangled and outlandish that it's borderline genius. For instance during a latter scene in which a farmer believes his pregnant Bigfoot raped daughter to be possessed he declares " I'm trying to save your soul you ungreatful bitch.... Now lay down" Classic. This inept writing and cheap jack sets are just part of the films neurotic charm and help make the experience all the more enjoyable , if not fun . Night Of The Demon is a masterpiece of absurd trash cinema that is waiting to be rediscovered by any adoring fan. In 1985 it was even placed on the much sought after Video Nasties list and unlike some of it's brethren ( hmmmm Xtro ) deserves to be on that list . Very much deserved. So pick up a pack of marshmallows and lift up that dress honey cause bigfoot is still out there, and he is HORNY AS FUCK!!!!
So, what do you say babies ?
Have I got a hot date ?
