Demons Never Die (2011)

just watch it!

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

The Plot = A young girl is murdered, but thought by the police as suicide, a group of college students decide to make a suicide pact, but a masked killer decides to kill them all off one by one instead.I only recently come across this movie, as before I have never heard of it despite it being quite recent only coming out last year and starring some well known UK actors, well I read some reviews online about it and it seems they are mixed at best, but I decided I wanted to see it anyway. And when I saw it, to be honest I actually liked it, despite obvious flaws and the generic feel to it."Demons Never Die" offers nothing new to the horror genre or anything spectacular but in my opinion works as an overall slasher. Although it is stupid that the police thinks that these deaths are suicide with blood splattered across walls and bodies hollowed out, I mean how can a person gut themselves literally, and the fact that these teens are planning a suicide pact anyway seems to throw the logic of a masked killer, killing them off a bit pointless. Although the knife attacks are quite fun as the cast are cut down, and the teens are quite interesting to follow and they did grow on me as the movie went on. The end party scene was also fun and elaborate, and I did enjoy the night vision camcorder scenes, I thought that it built on the suspense. And there are also some stupid fun campy slasher movie moments like when the party hostess finds a dead body in kitchen and runs past her friends and outside in the bushes ready and waiting to be killed, a camp moment kinda brings back memories from "The House On Sorority Row". The twist ending when the killer was revealed was also a bit of a shock and certainly took me by surprise, a factor that I always love in these types of movies.The performances as I have mentioned before are really good, although I found Ashley Walters performance as the cop rather unconvincing and he just seemed bored all the way through. But Robert Sheehan and Jennie Jacques as Archie and Jasmine were spot on, I found that they're romance sub plot sweet and believable, and plus I found these two were the most likable and most interesting performances in this movie. Emma Rigby who I used to love in Hollyoaks wasn't given enough screen time in this and plus her character was poorly developed but she did okay with what she was given. Jason Maza also did well as the unlikeable character, but he did seem like a left over from "Kidulthood". Reggie Yates gave a unmemorable performance as the coppers partner, to be honest anyone could have played that part. Jack Doolan as the fat kid was quite likable and felt happy when he popped his cherry. And Tulisa as the opening victim Amber, was a bit uneven for me, and was only on screen for about 2 seconds, they should have had a Scream type bloody murder which would have set the tone then for the movie.All in all Demons Never Die is Scream meets Kidulthood, a fun but generic British slasher movie that should please any fans, but there are a lot better out there.

First of all don't go by the bad reviews, this is one of the better slasher movies out there. The plot is simple, a girl commits suicide, a group of teens make a pact to follow the same, suddenly some realize that they don't wanna die any more, but there's someone who wants them dead. I just saw this movie last night and enjoyed it to the core. There was never a moment which I felt bored nor there was a moment where the story went off the plot. The story keeps you engaging throughout. This movie keeps you guessing till the very end. Overall, nice plot, good acting and well held suspense. A well made teen slasher which holds true to the genre, certainly worth watching.

Finally an urban London slasher, but if you're expecting anything like Scream it's very different... More like an art house slasher. So my cousin actually worked as a runner on this film and I've been well informed that it was made in 18 days for less than 100k so not sure where the million pound budget came from.. So with that in mind I was thoroughly impressed to see what was achieved. Now I'm not a fan of the urban genre but this is different, there's 8 lead characters all from different worlds who I found to be anything but stereotypical, e.g. the cops are young and black... The romance between Robert Sheehan and the lead girl is really sweet and while it's true that it is quite music videoish I didn't mind that, I like variety and this is definitely something different. I found myself trying to guess who the killer was throughout, laughed at the psycho character 'Kenny' and his cartman like foul mouthery and jumped a number of times.. The end is a bit cheap but I found out that they skipped 7 pages of the script because they ran out of time... That aside though it's a really good British film which seems to move the urban genre out of it's comfort zone

Let me just start with, this film does not make sense at all. Firstly, if you have a bunch of kids who want to kill themselves, the tension is removed when someone starts to murder them. Secondly, there's no reason for the killer to be killing in the first place even though you're happy to watch these caricatures and racial stereotypes be picked off one by one. Aside from that the main problem with "Demons Never Dies" is that it feels cold and empty with a massive lack of fun that other slasher films are abundant in, especially scream which most of the death scenes, in this film, are taken from. I have given this film one star only because of the directors ability to point the camera in the right direction which was its only saving grace even though it might have been better if he had pointed toward another story line.
