Demoniacs

Director Jean Rollin
Run time 90 mins Certificate 18

23rd September 2009

More of a dream than a film. I finished this one having been quite surprised at what was achieved with obviously a limited budget. It does flow but is strangely disjointed in the manner of a Lynch spectacle that does not assume the audience is a moron who needs bottle feeding. However the limited production values make the appeal of rewatching limited. So some of the subtler elements which could reveal the directors vision are lost. Of course I may be readng too deeply into it and the film infact is not more than a sum of it parts. It is very vivid though and that is largely thanks to the locations and actors choosen by the director.
