Night of the Demons (1988)
Director: Kevin S Tenney
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A gang of thoroughly objectionable teenagers party Halloween away in a haunted house. Some of them get possessed by evil spirits, and the frequent foulness of language is then replaced by nastiness of a different sort. A girl dances around a room with a bodiless arm clamped to her ankle (severed while a couple copulate in a coffin); a boy gets his eyes squished out by the bimbo who's putting him up; but the best bit is when a somewhat distraught young lady pushes her lipstick inside her left breast. You feel for her.Author: MS

- Posted on Nov 19 2009 12:26 Regarded by some as a cult classic, I almost fell asleep for the first half hour. The characters are not engaging nor is the film saved by good shocks, great effects or soundtrack. Barely watchable.
