DEMON RESURRECTION in Stuart WIllis' THE NEW FLESH

Just around this time last year, writer Stuart Willis had some kind words for DEMON RESURRECTION in his review of the film on the Sex Gore Mutants website. Now Stuart has published a 450-page book of his reviews of "post-millennial horror films" and among the 300 reviews in the book, he's been good enough to include a newly-written one of DEMON RESURRECTION.

The book, The New Flesh: 21st Century Horror Films A-Z, Vol 1, is available now in ebook and paperback form on Amazon, and given its comprehensiveness, its very reasonable price and the excellence of Stuart's writing, it looks to be a very smart buy for any horror film fan.

My thanks to Stuart for remembering DEMON RESURRECTION. I wish him great success with The New Flesh.

Sex Gore Mutants Reviews DEMON RESURRECTION

In his review of DEMON RESURRECTION, Stuart Willis of the UK's Sex Gore Mutants website has several nice things to say about the film. Some excerpts...

"A carefully paced, impressively escalated journey into gory zombie mayhem ... [with] some keen forays into worlds of the supernatural and inner-group paranoia....

When the gore comes, it's lurid and crusty - as is the undead make-up - and all the better for it.... There is, however, also style in evidence. Hopkins clearly has an eye for camp colour schemes, lending the film a theatrical element which brings to mind the cinema of Vincent Price in the late 60s and early 70s. The ageless theme of good versus evil gets a convincing ride out here too, a game cast and literate screenplay (making reference to Cthulhu, no less) both being too wise to sink into the mire that sullies most soulless modern horror efforts....

Even the violence, gory though it is (neck and belly stabbings, bloody births, zombie carnage) is so clearly fashioned on fantastical Italian horror films of yore that it too raises DEMON RESURRECTION above the torture-porn bores that account for 90% of today's entry level genre releases.... I maintain one thing: your appreciation of this fine film will rely heavily on your tolerance of its lo-fi aesthetics. Go with it."
