Black Demons (1991)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

This is such a huge step down from the other movies and it totally doesn't feel like it's being part of the series.If you already thought that the first sequel had very little to do with the movie "Dèmoni", wait till you see this one. This isn't even a movie about demons but one about old fashioned voodoo zombies instead. So why is this movie even part of the series? Its concept, characters and settings have absolutely nothing to do with any of the previous two movies.This movie is taking place in Brazil. Why? Just because they could I guess. As opposed to the previous two movies, this one is set in the open, which is already taking away a lot of the tension from the movie. There is never truly a sense of danger and despair in this movie and it never gets any good horror-wise.There is some gore in the movie but not nearly as much as in any of the previous two movies and it also most certainly isn't as great looking. This movie really could had done with some more killings or at least some more zombie action. Now the movie instead is being for most part very lackluster and you just constantly keep waiting for something good to happen. It seems to take forever for the movie, making this an at times quite boring one.The acting is also absolutely horrible. Not that any of the previous two movies featured some impressive performances in them but the acting in this movie is so bad that it becomes an annoying aspect about the movie.You could admire the movie for trying something different this time around but it feels more as if the movie its script got written for a totally different movie and this never was supposed to be a part of the 'Dèmoni' series in the first place. Besides, also when you see this movie as a standalone, it's simply a very lacking genre movie, that will even disappoint the most hardened fans of zombie flicks.Not entertaining, not scary, not very involving...just not a very good movie to watch.4/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/

Here is a movie that could have been a lot more. Released in 1991 under the title Demoni 3 (has nothing to do with the Demons series) and directed by the infamous Umberto Lenzi, the story takes off with a brother and sister and her boyfriend. Her brother becomes possessed by some black magic during a voodoo ritual and later on brings back to life 6 "Black Demons" to kill 6 white people to get revenge for their enslavement when they were alive. This movie moves very slow (as do a lot of Lenzi's films) and is acted quite badly. But then again, the actors didn't have much of a script to go off of. Unlike Lenzi's other classics like Cannibal Ferox or Nightmare City, this movie really doesn't hold your interest at all. With Nightmare City the gore was silly and the acting stupid but it was entertaining because the movie didn't stop, and the same goes for Cannibal Ferox. This movie, on the other hand, had may be 3 decent scenes of gore (most of which had someone getting an eye poked out) and the rest of the film is talking filled with bad background music. The only thing that kept my interest at all was the costuming for the demons/zombies. They looked genuinely kind of creepy. Besides that, the movie is to slow and that is really my main issue. 5\10 stars

A bad movie almost bad enough to be good, but not quite bad enough to be worth recommending.Sonia is missing. Her boyfriend Jose thinks that maybe she went to town, but when she doesn't come back, he's pretty sure something bad happened.But then Jose finds... one of Sonia's shoes! Now he knows something has happened to her."Maybe she changed her shoes," suggests Kevin, a cooler head.They go to her room, and find another pair of her shoes."You see!" Jose exclaims. "These are the only other shoes she had! Are you convinced now?""Yeah," Kevin says. "She wouldn't have gone to the village barefooted."These utterly ridiculous, idiotic scenes are meant to be taken seriously. That's the sort of movie you're in for -- accidental comedy. If you can appreciate a film on that level, this is the film for you.Worse than the dialogue is the pacing. The movie is as slow as the stumbling zombies of the film -- and these zombies have chains around their ankles. Everything is very predictable, and we're left waiting around for the next moment of gore to show up. The actors are constantly flubbing their lines -- but not in a particularly interesting way. Just stuttering slightly as they deliver ridiculous, stilted dialogue.For a horror movie, there isn't much blood. Or fear. Or tension. Or horror. Or movie.

Two Americans and an English man brake down while driving in Brazil. They meet a couple & stay at a cursed house. Then the "Black Demons" (or to the politically correct "African-American living-challenged), who are dead former slaves stick it to the Man by killing Whitey (how's THAT for reparations??!!?). But not before one of the guys gets a necklace from a voodoo tribe for no reason. The acting is putrid at best and some ok death scenes can't liven up this jumbled mess. My Grade: DShriekshow DVD Extras: Interviews with Umberto Lenzi (where he denies making any Zombie movies, prompting anyone who saw this or "Nightmare City" to exclaim "Whatever Umberto") and Olga Pehar; Theatrical Trailer; Trailers for "Killing Birds", "Zombie 2", "Zombie 3", and "zombie 4"
