Title: DEMONOID (1980) Post by: RCMerchant on September 08, 2018, 03:47:44 PM Alright-where to start? Well- there's a prolouge! A bunch of Devil worshpippers back who know when chain a woman up, rip her blouse open so we can get a tittie shot, (enjoy it-it's the only one in the film), and cut off her hand....which crawls into a tiny coffin. Flash forward-
Samantha Egger is in Mexico with her husband at his mine. Never says what kind of mine-just a mine. A mine containing mummies and Devil worshipping s**t. Her hubby becomes possessed by the hand, seals his workers in the mine with TNT, and heads to Vegas. In Vegas he's on a winning streak- and is kidnapped. He kills his kidnappers, yet sets himself on fire with gasoline. They bury him. Aw f**k. To make a stupid story short- his corpse blasts out of the ground like shot out of a cannon, and cuts it's own hand off with a cop car door (!). And possesses the cop! Who makes a doctor cut it off him (at gunpoint!). The hand kills the cop and possesss the doctor-and so on blah blablah. OH! The hand does leap out an apartment building window and hitch a ride on Stuart Whitman's car (he plays a priest), and even escapes by hitching a ride on the under carriage of a freight train! Oh! You can tell when the hand possess anyone-because you get a flash of lightning, and a cardboard shadow cut-out of the devil flashing across the screen. It's actually a fun movie. Makes very little real sense. But it's bloody, and it ain't slow. It moves right along! http://youtu.be/3YvXEkzP10w (http://youtu.be/3YvXEkzP10w) Title: Re: DEMONOID (1980) Post by: zombie no.one on September 08, 2018, 04:23:21 PM from reading your description I was sure I knew which movie this was, but looking at the trailer I'm sure I've never seen it.
looks like fun anyway...very grindhouse-y production values Title: Re: DEMONOID (1980) Post by: RCMerchant on September 08, 2018, 05:29:15 PM Zombie #1- It's right up yer ally! :thumbup: :thumbup:
I enjoyed it quite a bit. :drink: Title: Re: DEMONOID (1980) Post by: Allhallowsday on September 08, 2018, 09:08:47 PM Haven't seen it, like zombie#1, the trailer informs me. Another one I'd thought I'd seen (hell, I saw THE BROOD when it was almost new!) SAMANTHA EGGAR again! :teddyr: I like when movies are full of trash while zipping along!
Title: Re: DEMONOID (1980) Post by: zombie no.one on September 08, 2018, 09:59:38 PM just found it on youtube and started watching but it's in Spanish...(- but if the movie doesn't make much sense anyway, maybe that's not a problem!)

SAMANTHA EGGAR again! :teddyr: THE BROOD is great, probably my favourite Cronenberg movie Title: Re: DEMONOID (1980) Post by: FatFreddysCat on September 09, 2018, 08:30:31 AM I saw this on USA Network dog years ago. It recently popped up on Amazon so I added it to my never-ending watch list, haven't had time to revisit it yet.
