Justin Lewis, genre film maven and resident critic at review site OUTPOST ZETA, recently turned his attention to my film, DEMON RESURRECTION, and had some kind things to say about it...
"Demon Resurrection is a good example of a film that wants to honor its 1970s and early 1980s horror roots without mindlessly aping the surface look of those films. Too often modern ‘grindhouse’ movies think they can throw some digital film damage over their shoddily made work and call it retro. Demon Resurrection takes its plot and a few visual cues from films like Burial Ground (1981) and The Blind Dead movies but it is not interested in just copying them under the guise of homage..."
He cites Will McDonald's performance as the evil cult leader:
"Toth is a fun villain, he is the kind of robe-wearing Satan worshiping baddie that is just as much of a delight to watch as it is to see him get his comeuppance. He meets his end in a fashion that wouldn’t be out of place in an E.C. horror comic."
Laurie Miller, our Dr. Kate, is also praised...
"Demon Resurrection isn’t afraid to put its characters through the wringer, and throughout the runtime, I was not exactly sure who was going to make it to the end. I did really like Laurie Miller as Kate.... I thought she made a believably frightened and desperate character and I found myself rooting for her to survive her ordeals with the undead."
Finally, he says DEMON RESURRECTION "gives birth to some enjoyable horror."

It's good to see that, even all all the years that have passed since it was made, DEMON RESURRECTION can still get the occasional good review.
My sincere thanks to Justin for all the kind words :)
