Hmmmm... this looks vaguely familiar. An apartment building is sent into the face of hell when demons run loose after breaking out of a tv movie. Yes. Actually, we figured out what the movie is really about...Sally's cake! Young Sally is having a birthday party, and everybody in Italy is making their way for some cake, including demons from hell. There's actually an entire scene with some young punkers going to the apartment building, solely to get some cake. That's seriously the only point of the young peoples' scenes.
Anyway, demons get out, and everyone tries to get out. Who will? Does it matter? We're here for the gore!!!
George - David Edwin Knight
Hannah - Nancy Brilli
Sally - Coralina Cataldi Tassoni

"So what if you died in the first Demons, we'll sign you on!", had to be the ideology of the casting department for this movie. Actually they probably just took the first 100 people through the door. "Tony the Pimp" from Demons is back this time as "Hank the Pimp". Though the idea is exactly the same as the first Demons this movie still rocks. Well, I guess this one adds a few things, such as a demonic dog, birthday cake, and acidic blood. Same kind of music, so if you liked it in Demons then you'll like it in this movie. I just hope everything in my life can be solved the same way that "Hank the Pimp" does with clay pottery. I definitely recommend this for rental and if you liked the first Demons, buy this one as well.

Before you read this, DON'T! Go get this movie you dum-dum head!
With that said, there are those films that seem to come close to the "10", but for some reason they fall just short. This is one of them. Picking right up where the first left off, this bad-ass mutha delivers much the same pointless, random, violent, off-the-wall awesomness given to us by the predecessor, with music to match of course. Yes there are hot chicks and nudity (Damn Europeans) Best part is, a few peeps from the first are back this time around in different roles. Bobby Rhodes is a fitness guru this time 'round, so you're guaranteed genious every time he's on the screen. Well, that and he's also gonna get it the worst as well. Some problems, demon dogs? Acidic blood? Demons the size of a Cracker Jack prize? Eh, just as well. I also love how when Demons are ressurected through TV's, your apartment building becomes a fortified fortress. Not even a 29278374346736872 lb. dumbell can break a window! Ha! For that matter, a car can't crash trough a parking garage door. Some pretty good SFX, I thought the TV sequence was pretty cool. For any of you keeping score, this is probably Asia Argento's first role in her career. At least to my knowledge. Get this now!!!

Contrary to what a lot of people say about this one, if you watch it with the mindset of "I'm watching a movie that is basically the same as part one. The story is basically the same, it ends roughly the same, the events in the movie are about the same. That's what I'm going to get," then you won't be disappointed.
I'm not kidding; the movie is about demons that invade a hotel. What do you want? The first one was about demons invading a movie theater. It's not the story that's so great; besides, at what point did you think the Italians cared about story in the 80's? They were gore, gore, gore, and that's really about it.
Anyway, there are some problems with this one, as a lot of the characters pop in and out of existence, especially the kids in the car. They serve NO purpose at all, which I find hilarious. I have never seen scenes that were so completely trivial in my life. Then they all die, and that's it. The end.
The story has to take place simultaenously with the first one, unless they are completely discounting the events of part one. The apocalyptic ending of the first film made it seem like the whole world had been taken over, but all of a sudden things are ok...it doesn't quite add up. But, again, who cares?
I definitely recommend getting this. Just like the original, it's great for repeat viewings.
I really wonder what the hell was with Sally's birthday cake. Those kids in the car DIED trying to get some of Sally's cake. Is it a metaphor? Some sort of drug message? Hmmm....no.

Pointless nudity- yes
Random violence- yes
Uppercuts- no
Editing- no
Continuity- no
More old school soundtrack!
How exactly did the dog get up to the peephole?
How could you not notice you're bleeding that badly?
One switch turns off the whole apartment?
Why is the dog turning into a panther?
Why is the dog humping her leg? That's not scary!
Potted plants solve everything!
Somersaultin' demons!
It's a hand puppet! Awww, he's smiling, he wants to play!
Common household...acid?
Apparently this is a good time for a bumper cars break.
Nice reflexes George; push, grab, toss!
Why am I asking all these pointless questions?
Hannah - "You don't want our child to be born with a birthmark, do you?" (This line has absolutely JACK to do with anything!)
Girl 1 - "The telephone's broken! The line's cut off!"
Girl 2 - "Everything's broken!"
Hank - "You're all muscle and no brain boy!"
Hank - "Hey baby, hey, hey BABY!"
Once again, Bobby Rhodes' lines are all up for grabs.
