Demonwarp movie poster. (1988)

10 Caps from Demonwarp

So lets me first say DemonWarp (made in 1988) both does and does not live up to this amazing poster of it. It's not as good as the poster makes you think but it is totally as wild and full on heavy metal sci fi and horror as the poster eludes too. Second billing to some amazing genre stars George Kennedy, Billy Jacoby and Michelle Bauer. Billy Jacoby who I have become a fan of recently is someone I wish was in the movie more as he is a pretty funny upbeat actor. Jacoby plays the comedic friend of the main hero of the film who film is an extremely plastic actor. It would have been better if roles were switched. Of course you always want to see more of Michelle Bauer as this is one of the more professionally made movies for her career and she is much more cute and fun then the other main girls in the movie. Anyways aside from these great semi cameos it's also the direction of the film that is mind boggling. It sets itself as a bigfoot movie with an amazing looking creature that kills in some epicly gorey ways but every few scenes the movie takes some twists as if the writer threw horror movie ideas and a hat and promised to use them all. Eventually the rampaging bigfoot story turns to zombies and body snatchers, then to a cult , then to aliens. Spoiler I guess... but even if you are ready for it, it's still going to kind of surprise you. A wild messed up monster mash hidden inside a sweet cheap practical effects blood soaked yet oddly easy going cabin in the woods type flick. It’s too odd for the normies out there but for b movie and monster movie fans it's god damn fantastic. I am so shocked this is not talked about more in the post slasher genre movies at the end of the 80s.

For some reason I love the Bigfoot-Horror sub-genre but this flick takes it an extra mile. Fucking aliens,Christianity, hillbillies and murder all accompany the assumed big hairy guy with the pacing of a crawling LSD flashback. It has no equal. - RevTerry
