When you like your viruses with a touch of class........2005-01-05

Ex-military, black belt professional bodyguard/soldier of fortune Ken Conway (Matt McColm) is recruited by his ex-fiancée Marisa (Annabel Schofield), who left him at the altar, to find her missing coworker. The search leads him to world renowned virologist Dr. Ramsey Krago (Ron Perlman), who is secretly creating deadly viruses, releasing them, then "developing" an antidote (which he had created in tandem with the virus) and selling it to the highest paying pharmaceutical company. The Doctor infects Conway, via poison ring, with his latest invention, leaving him forty eight hours to get the antidote or die.

Not a bad movie, but not great. The opening music is incredibly tacky. Not the most brilliant dialogue. The lead (McColm) has a tendency to go over the top cocky. Still, worth a watch, in part because of Ron Perlman's performance. He's the epitome of class and style as the suave, debonair and totally villainous Doctor. An enjoyable performance as he is so damn smooth and so damn ruthless; a silken snake.

MATT'S THE MAN.......2004-10-06

Matt McColm is a former stuntman who has done a few films including this above-average low budget thriller. McColm plays a bodyguard for hire, aided by his nerdish accountant, the ever ubiquitous Clint Howard. Along the way he encounters his lovely ex-girlfriend played by Annabell Schofield, and the spider lady Morgan Brittany, who plays the evil assistant to the even more evil Ron Perlman. Perlman plays the villain with a casual offhandedness that would later aid him greatly in the campy HELLBOY.
In this film, McColm must stop Perlman from his devious plot: he manufactures a nasty virus, and then to make money, he makes the antedote. Cool way to make millions, huh? Things go pretty bad when McColm foolishly shakes Perlman's hand and gets the virus and has only 48 hours to stop Perlman.
Cheesy in some ways, but McColm has a strong, slightly sardonic delivery and the action scenes are pretty effective.
Not bad for a cheepo.

good movie.......2002-03-08

If you are into survival horror video games you will probably agree with me,that this a good movie.

Better than I thought!.......2002-03-01

I really thought that this movie would be a total waste of time but surprise! It turned out to be quite entertaining. Hey, it cost less that $1 mil to make so what do you expect? The performances were good and the action sequences were really good for a low budget feature. Jack Gill did a lot with what he had to work with, imagine if he had $10 mil to work with! You should see it, just to check it out!

Ron Pearlman, you have forsaken me!.......2001-01-24

This movie is like a porno.. but without nudity, and without the good music. It's loose plot follows a body gaurd (Matt McColm) trying to protect his client from... well.... I guess this film. He does a poor job, because she's in it. In the end, they do battle with Ron Pearlman, who's bad for one reason or another. Maybe he's pissed he didn't get paid enough, or maybe he didn't pay the filmakers enough to not be in this film. Either way, he's pissed, and out to destroy the world. The camerawork looks like a guy holding the camera with one hand, and lifting weights with the other. Consquently, the camera is never really steady. If you paid the full amount for this DVD, or for that matter, any amount, I suggest you ask for a refund.

Complete waste of time.......2006-08-06

I was really looking forward to seeing this movie, as I'm quite a fan of Full Moon pictures. A lot of them are very entertaining (Slave Girls From Beyond Infinity, Hideous, Shrieker, Crash And Burn, Jigsaw, etc). However, this one is just plain crap. It's about some kids who are hiking through the woods, and one of them stumbles across a train tunnel which has supposedly been there for thousands of years. Inside he finds the mummified corpse of Demonicus. He puts on the gladiator's helmet, is overcome by the spirit of Demonicus, and goes around killing the other kids. The guy who plays Demonicus might be in fairly good shape for a college baseball player, but as a gladiator, he looks ridiculous. He's just too skinny, and he runs like a girl. The other characters aren't really that bad, they're vaguely likable, but the script is what really drags this thing down. Half of the dialogue is utter nonsense. People are constantly saying things that don't even make sense, and it gets really annoying. I could stand the boredom of watching some vaguely likable people walking around in the woods, but when they're talking nonsense I have to wonder why I'm wasting my time.

It might have helped if there was some T&A, which you usually get with a Full Moon picture, but there isn't any. Overall, this thing needed a very thorough rewrite of the script. In the director's commentary track, he mentions that the writer refused to put her name on the movie because she wasn't happy with the script, and I can certainly see why. He keeps talking about how this was an early draft of the script, they got rid of the final version because some actress didn't like what was done with her character or something. I kept flipping over to the commentary track after every unintentional bit of stupidity, just to see what the director had to say, but he was oblivious to everything. I got the impression that, considering the budget and time constraints, he was really happy to have something - anything - on film that he could call a movie, and thereby receive his paycheck.

THIS IS PRETTY BAD.......2004-04-11

I have always enjoyed a truly good cheesy B movie...but DEMONICUS is so badly done that it's hard to find anything of merit. It's pretty low even for Full Moon standards. Filmed in the Angeles National Forest, it's a pale comparison to the Italian alps. Director Jay Woehl (?) offers little in the ways of suspense, and the cast...well, I don't know where they found them, but acting is not their forte. Even Gregory Lee Kenyon, the studly dude who plays the possessed gladiator, has little energy, and the one "sword fight" is so badly staged, it's laughable...and it was choreographed by said G L Kenyon. The gore is even so fake it's not gory; the special effects, if that's what you'd call them, are prehistoric compared to even the gladiator movies of the sixties. So, I would avoid this movie, unless you want to rent it on a night you're having your worst enemies over. Definitely, I don't think I'd buy it...unless for a penny at a yard sale. Why the two stars? I guess because I finished watching it?

Cheesy But Delightful.......2004-02-07

My friend and I rent B-movies just so we can rip on them, and this movie was a perfect oppourtunity for us to have a few good laughs. First of all, it starts out with some co-ed wondering into an ominous cave with a inconspicuous man-made cement arch marking the entrance. The guy finds this petrified corpse and suddenly becomes an archaeologist with such quotes as "Perfectly preserved" despite the 'open' cave entrance, and "This must be a thousand years old' ; c'mon, what college do these kids go to? Anyway, the kid decides to play dress up and puts on the helmet worn by the corpse... What the heck.. He then becomes possessed by the spirit named Demonicus.. Wow. Thusly beginning his scene where he messes around with all the weapons, and goes out to kill his girlfriend and his other friends.

There were so many filming mistakes made in this movie, It's not even funny. Example; as Demonicus comes trotting down the road screaming some mock latin wielding a sword, a pair of his friends stand there dumbfounded as they try to decipher what he his saying. Only to figure it out moments before he dismembers them with a blunt plastic sword purchased at Wal-Mart. And the kicker is, the blonde chick who probably makes porn as a side-job is the one who figures out what he is saying..

I also enjoyed the part where the other couple are 'getting jiggy with it' under the covers in the tent, then they hear a noise. The guy is naked, he decides to get out and check it out. It shows him exiting the tent absolutely nude, then they cut to outside where it shows him exiting the tent FULLY CLOTHED. Whoops, looks like the lazy editor was to busy digging out the cheese doodle wedged beneath the couch to catch that blooper.

The same guy then finishes the movie by cursing everything that he walks by, "F'ing trees, f'ing Demonicus, f'ing air". Wow wordsworth, don't hurt yourself there.

My friends and I had a wonderful time making fun of this movie, and that's the only reason why I would recommend renting this. If you have a dry sense of humor and enjoy B-movies, then you should check out Demonicus.

What A Waste of the worlds time.......2003-12-27

If amazon did a 0 then this would score that, what a waste of my time, halfway through I took my dog for a walk, it was that bad, what a blooming waste of my time.

Now I have to admit, the babes were quite good, and the main actor did what he could with a script they got off a cereal box packet, but overall it rated a 0, and I am being kind giving it a one star.

Wow.......2003-06-01

Wow...I don't know what to say. My friends rented this one night hoping for something good. We didn't know what we were getting ourselves into. Never before has every facet of a movie been so bad. Usually, one could find one or two aspects that a are redeeming about a movie. Unfortunately, Demonicus has none. Congratulations to those who made this: they've succeeded at failing.

The wounded vets deserve 5 stars for their resilience.......2007-04-04

This DVD of a 60minutes program about wounded vets trying to return to civilian life was interesting, however, it was disappointingly short. I thought 60 minutes was for 60 minutes, these are only 15 minutes long...what was left out??? When these are aired on t.v. do viewers watch 45 minutes of commercials? I also thought that they interviewed very resilient people with excellent support systems of family and friends, not all are so fortunate.
