Blu-ray Review – Age of Demons

1993's "Age of Demons" endeavors to explore the end of the world, with mischievous sorceresses aiming to resurrect evil through magic and murder, attempting to trigger some type of apocalypse. It's the stuff of epic filmmaking, but writer/director/star Damon Foster doesn't have the resources to really capture exciting visuals. Instead, he goes the shot-on-video route, and he's very interested in turning the picture into a farce, using every opportunity he can find to add jokes and silliness to the offering. While it initially seems like a horror movie, "Age of Demons" quickly labors to be as wacky as possible, with Foster attempting all kinds of comedy, eventually turning the effort into an homage to Japanese kid show entertainment. The feature is definitely out there, but not in an inviting way. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
