Night of the Demons

2009 ·1h 33m · ★ 5.1 (192)

Angela is throwing a decadent Halloween party at New Orleans' infamous Broussard Mansion. But after the police break up the festivities, Maddie and a few friends stay behind. Trapped inside the locked mansion gates, the remaining guests uncover a horrifying secret and soon fall victim to seven vicious, blood-thirsty demons.

Why it matters

A neon-lit, demon-infested Halloween party that leans into gore-splattered fun without trying to outclass its cult 1988 predecessor.

  • Shifts the action to New Orleans, soaking the mansion’s corridors in voodoo-tinged atmosphere and Southern gothic decay.
  • Practical blood and goo effects get their moment, even if the demon designs lack Bottin-level menace.
  • A solid choice for fans who want a party-horror with enough scares and splatter to satisfy without demanding genre-defining status.
  • Not a remake to dethrone the original, but a serviceable late-2000s throwback that hits familiar beats with some fresh flavor.
