‘Hell is empty… the Devil is here’
Demons is a 2017 American supernatural horror film written, directed by and starring Miles Doleac (actor in Kudzu Zombies; Mississippi River Sharks; Don’t Kill It). The Historia Films production also stars Andrew Divoff, John Schneider and Lindsay Anne Williams.
Eight years ago, Father Colin Hampstead oversaw an aborted exorcism that resulted in the gruesome death of seventeen-year-old Jewel Grant, in rural Louisiana.
The deceased girl’s older sister, Kayleigh, grew immediately attached to Hampstead and sought him out, at first for grief counseling and then, for much more.
Now, Hampstead has left the priesthood and become a celebrated fiction writer, specialising in stories about the occult, and he and Kayleigh, now his wife, have a beautiful daughter and run a well-known bed and breakfast in Savannah, Georgia.
When the couple agrees to host a wedding for one of Colin’s college friends, what begins as a Big Chill-type reunion turns into something much more macabre, as the seemingly omnipresent ghost of her dead sister Jewel compels Kayleigh to engage in bizarre, destructive behaviour that endangers the lives of both her friends and herself…
Demons is released in selected US theaters and on VOD on October 6, 2017, by Uncork’d Entertainment.
Main cast:
Miles Doleac, Andrew Divoff (The Hatred; Wishmaster franchise), John Schneider (Snow Beast; Super Shark; Ogre), Lindsay Anne Williams, Steven Brand (Hellraiser: Revelations), Kristina Emerson and Gary Grubbs.
