Emilie Black Cinema Crazed The first is definitely superior, but this isn’t bad and does feel like it is in the same universe, expanding the reach of the zombies and making them more a global issue. Sep 14, 2024 Full Review Leo Brady AMovieGuy.com Where Demons had an ending that reminded me of George Romero's Dawn of the Dead, Demons II seems unsure of where to take the characters. Rated: 2.5/4 Nov 12, 2021 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy More of the same, albeit with more narrative sloppiness and a change in venue. Rated: 2.5/4 Oct 29, 2021 Full Review Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy The level of "why the heck not?" enthusiasm that Bava and Argento evidently sank into this second chapter is addictive in the same way that a sugar rush can be. Rated: 6/10 Oct 31, 2011 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...an even less interesting piece of work than its mediocre predecessor... Rated: 1.5/4 Oct 12, 2007 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Combustible Celluloid Director Lamberto Bava and co-writer Dario Argento keep things just this side of ludicrous and the result is gory fun. Oct 11, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews

Landon J I've seen people say the first is better, in my opinion this one really does everything the first does even better. Of course don't expect much in the way of exposition. However this really delivers on the predecessor's direction even better! Fun gory zombie action, one of the best of the genre. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/04/24 Full Review Craig B My review of Demons 2... yes, it's the same as its predecessor... Demons 2 is one of those movies which is 'so bad, it's good...'... or, in my opinion, 'so bad, it's good at being so bad...'. Yes, it's a 'classic', but gee it's a hard watch. Absolutely woeful dialogue and acting, in amongst some slightly entertaining and gory action sequences. Probably has to be watched to make up your own mind... at least it's not overly long, so its little time wasted. Certainly no improvement on its predecessor. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/18/24 Full Review brad p A similar feature sets the stage for the you-knew-it-was-coming Demons 2 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I love both demons 1 and demons 2 movie and big 👍 and big like Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review marco b Zombie-like demons come out of a TV and start attacking people trapped in a high-rise apartment building. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review tom k Silly and atrocious acting, but great jump scares and practical effects! Who will survive? What happens next? Definitely one to watch in the dark!
