"Adults Shouldn't Play With Dead Things Either" - Dan W Kelly reviews DEMON RESURRECTION


My day brightened considerably on reading author and film critic Daniel W. Kelly's terrific review of DEMON RESURRECTION on his "Boys, Bears & Scares" blog. Dan seems especially well versed in 70s horror, so he's able to appreciate where we were coming from with our film. (He even cites Bob Clark's CHILDREN SHOULDN'T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS as an influence, which is correct and something I haven't seen mentioned in any other review.) Some excerpts:
It’s so good to see indie directors keeping alive the tradition of eerie horror movies of the 70s involving the occult, demons, the living dead, and plenty of gut-munching. Demon Resurrection, by director William Hopkins, is the perfect combination of all of the above. I really felt like I was watching a ghoulish 70s flick on an 80s VHS tape...
Demon Resurrection is a reminder of how great simple indie horror flicks used to be – and still can be. This is a perfect one to pop in on Halloween night.
October 31 is still a ways off, but hopefully 70s horror fans will take Dan's advice and keep a copy of DEMON RESURRECTION on hand for post-trick-or-treat viewing next Halloween.


Thanks, Dan!
