Night of the Demon

About This Movie

Night of the Demon (1980) dives into the eerie world of cryptozoology and the supernatural. The film has this unsettling vibe that looms over the students and their professor as they chase down a Bigfoot, but it cleverly twists into something darker. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it builds tension effectively, especially with those moments of isolation in the woods. Practical effects are a highlight, giving a raw and gritty feel that enhances the horror. Performances are solid, capturing that mix of curiosity and dread. It’s got this distinct blend of folklore and slasher elements that keeps it from being just another creature feature. Definitely an interesting watch if you’re into the obscure corners of horror cinema.
