It’s time for a new episode of The Arrow in the Head Show, and in this one our hosts John “The Arrow” Fallon and Lance Vlcek are looking back at the 1985 Italian horror classic Demons (watch it HERE), a movie that not only has some cool ghoul action but also has a rocking soundtrack. That soundtrack includes the likes of Billy Idol, Mötley Crüe, and Saxon. To hear what The Arrow and Lance had to say about Demons, check out the video embedded above!
Directed by Lamberto Bava from a screenplay he crafted with Dardano Sacchetti, Franco Ferrini, and producer Dario Argento, Demons has the following synopsis:
Demons takes place in an old mysterious cinema, where all the patrons have been invited by a sinister disfigured man distributing movie tickets. The surprise attraction is a horror movie, several patrons are disgusted by the picture, a brutal stalk & slash flick that centers around demonic possession & graphic murder. Meanwhile a young girl who cut her face on a display mask in the foyer, begins to undergo a hideous transformation into a snarling demon, she contaminates her companion and panic spreads around the cinema.
The film stars Urbano Barberini, Natasha Hovey, Karl Zinny, Paola Cozzo, Nicoletta Elmi, Fiore Argento, Geretta Giancarlo, and Michele Soavi, with Bobby Rhodes as Tony the Pimp.
Here’s some information on The Arrow in the Head Show:
We’re trying something a bit new here on Arrow In The Head. After many years behind the scenes, we’ve decided to take our sarcastic, booze-influenced style into the video age with The Arrow In The Head Show! Hosted by John Fallon aka The Arrow and Lance Vlcek, we will dig into not only the newest horror flicks hitting the big and small screens but also delve into the good, bad, and ugly of horror from the golden ages of the ’80s through the underrated 90s and maybe a bit beyond.
Something groovy and a tad rough around the edges, we are here to talk shop with a drink in hand, a bit of foul language, and a whole lot of heart.
The Demons episode of the show was Edited by Lance.
