A rich elderly woman is being conned by a fraudulent psychic. The psychic uses a unknown ritual to try to fool a true psychic that was hired to see if the fraud was for real. Of course, as you can guess, the fraud successfully conjures up a demon, and of course, a few of the guests die one by one. I enjoyed the characters in this movie and the demon is a bit corny, but it's still a fun flick. The dialogue and acting is good. I've seen a lot of poorly made B movies, and this isn't one of them. The lighting, dialogue and character development make this an enjoyable movie.
I wish I knew whether the upcoming DVD was widescreen or not? This flick, if the transfer to DVD is good, would be a nice addition to my collection.
IN EACH OF US THERE IS EVIL, HOPE HE DOESN'T FIND IT. More like, in each movie there is some evil, but hope you don't find this one.
Todays movie, boys and ghoulies, is called DEMON KEEPER. And DO NOT watch this one alone, you might die of bordem!!!
Now I can just see in my mind as I watched this flick, Cheryl Latimer, Joe Tornatore, and Maurice Smith the film makers sitting around having a pre-production talk. One says, "well we have a pretty typical lack-luster script, and such and such for a budget. What should we do to make it a sellable commodity?
"Well", said another. "Let's get a star. Dirk Benidict, was pretty cool in Battle Star Galactica, and he's outa work since the A-Team folded. Let's spend half the budget and get him."
"Sounds good", says the third, "and lets spend three quaters of what's left on a really wicked looking Demon Costume."
"But the demon is incorporal according to the script, it doesn't have a form.",someone interjects.
"So what?!? We'll put some hot looking girls in it and get them semi nude and besides it would make a good cover. But what do we do with the rest of the budget."
"Well, we can hired the rest of the actors and use it for production and sets and stuff like that
And so they made a movie......
I bought this flick years ago from a video store going out of business for about [money]. I'm sure it must have been the cool looking cover.
I watched it once and it sat on my video shelf for years, I never had the urge to watch it again, until one day the girl friend was picking through my movies looking for something to watch. She says, "What's this DEMON KEEPER thing?"
And so the forces of really bad demonic movies was released once again....
The movie is pretty forgetable, although Dirk Benedict fans will love his performance as an arrogant expert on the supernatural. The Demon Costume looks cool on the cover but comes off pretty laughable when animated
