To me, this movie is perfection.

As Good As It Gets

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

First of all let's get one thing straight..."Demonwarp" doesn't have demons or warps. But it does feature an assortment of monsters and enough T&A (and 80's bush) to please any B-movie fan.I have fond memories of this film from childhood. As a kid, I was genuinely disturbed by "Demonwarp". My brothers and I would rent it from the Ma and Pa video store on a monthly basis. Sadly, "Demonwarp" has not aged well and I find myself bewildered at how a film so cheesy and cheap could have frighten me as a young boy.The flick revolves around some teens at a cabin who encounter Bigfoot. A vengeful father eventually shows up intent on hunting the beast. But then zombies and aliens pop up and all hell breaks loose."Demonwarp", in terms of plot and acting, is all over the place. The gore is below average but it gets bonus points for nudity. Michelle Bauer (Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers) runs around topless covered in blood screaming for most of her screen time. There's also a male hiker who's character suddenly appears out of nowhere and spends half the movie running from Bigfoot until Bigfoot disembowels him with a stick(?). "Demonwarp" is a cheap B-Movie made for the video market boom and it does exactly what it was produced to do...entertain. Check it out if you like your horror cheesy with lots of skin. "Demonwarp" was written by John Carl Beuchler (who also designed the creature) and directed by Emmitt Alston (New Year's Evil). "Demonwarp" features George Kennedy fist fighting Bigfoot, a crazed priest, a shower scene, drinking and driving, Michelle Bauer sun tanning topless, the little brother from "Just One Of The Guys" getting his neck snapped, a decapitation, and the most awkward sex scene ever filmed.Till next time horror hounds and fright fanatics, beware the darkness

Its a dangerous business going into the woods in the US. First your got your standard slasher killers, be they scarred, deformed or just plain ticked off at people trespassing on their territory. Then you got hillbillies, inbred or otherwise, and they generally want to kill, eat or sexually violate you (sometimes all three and not necessarily in that order. Then there's Bigfoot. In the 70's Bigfoot movies by and large treated the beloved wood ape as a gentle creature who just wanted to get along. This is because said films were generally made by hippies, who identify with Bigfoot because like them he has long hair and smells foul. But by the 80's all the hippies had either died of too much hair or became investment bankers and Bigfoot started kicking some cinematic ass. Demonwarp is a good example and among the last breath of truly bonkers horror in the 80's, though certainly imperfect. For much of the first half it comes across a distant second to James Wasson's classic Night of the Demon (best film with that name?), there are a few tits and a couple of decent gruesome kills but its mostly set in daylight, sapping its atmosphere, and the pace is less relentless. Fortunately the writers seem to have hit the bong pretty hard before coming up with the final block as the whole thing goes mad. I won't say anything about what transpires because its best to approach with as little foreknowledge as possible. Lets just say its an everything and the kitchen sink approach , and if only the film were a bit less competent it could have been a full on classic of insane schlock cinema. Still, even in the slower first half there's stuff to appreciate. A rather dazed and confused looking George Kennedy does his best to muster up some gravitas as a dedicated hunter. The women are generally attractive and several go topless, including the always awesome Michelle Bauer. The Bigfoot suit is designed by John Carl Buechler and though a bit overexposed during the course of the film its a nicely shaggy and fierce looking creation, imposing enough to be a decent enemy. I wouldn't say any of the lead actors are terribly good but they give it a shot and their characters are just dumb enough to amuse but not dumb enough to infuriate, a happy medium. The general look of the thing is nice as well, not especially evocative like the true backwoods classics, but the locations come across nicely, and director Emmett Alston has a fairly sure hand when it comes to directing the exciting bits. And when the film really gets in gear you'll likely be forgetting most issues that have come up earlier. So all in all this is no great and inspiring work of art, but very much worthy of a watch if nutsoid trash is your kettle of piranhas. Strong 7/10 from me

I'm pretty much a fan of any horror/sci fi film - especially older ones which were made before the Sci Fi (oops that's SYFY now) channel seems to have gotten the monopoly on astonishingly poor B films. Anyway Demonwarp is one such film which somehow managed to slip past me completely. I'd never seen or even heard of it until just last night when I ran across a mention of it on another website. I found it online and watched it today.I liked it. It certainly wasn't even close to "great" but I liked it anyway. The story itself was rather original although wonky pacing and poor editing ruined what could have been a better film overall. The acting was nothing to cheer about either but all the girls were - shall we say - easy on the eyes? Yes. The gratuitous tit shots didn't hurt but even in the absence of them, they were still cute. The film's direction was also more than a little clunky and the fight/conflict scenes were poorly handled at best. Sound design was interesting and the musical score was pretty good.THE SHINING this wasn't but it was far superior to anything I've seen on SyFy channel in the last 10 years. At least I watched this one to the end.

A group of teens in a cabin in a woods are attacked by a creepy-ass Bigfoot monster, which kills a couple of them. The monster disappears into the night and the next morning they go on a search into the woods to find and destroy it. The name of the forest the carnage takes place in is Demonwood, and it seems many strange events have occurred there over the years, according to some supporting characters. The teens meet up with George Kennedy who's daughter was carried off by the same monster. He's also looking for revenge. A few extras wandering around the woods get slaughtered by the Bigfoot. Some of the murders are gross. Some of the gorier special effects are good. The last 20 minutes comes out of left field and adds another spin on the story, a spin that involves aliens, zombies, and a cultish looking maniac. Not a bad horror movie, it should prove to be a good view by any un-demanding horror fan. The twists at the end are kinda fun, and there are some good grisly moments strewn through out the story. Gratuitous nudity helps keep things interesting and the cast is not all that bad. George Kennedy is fun to watch hamming it up as the vengeance-minded father. Worth a look. Two And A Half Stars.
