And we’re happy to have David on the show because he always brings a wealth of 80s-horror-movie-knowledge with him.So, how does Demons 2 hold up all these years later? Very well, but the boys still think Demons 1 has more meat on its bones. The quick turnaround time for this sequel definitely holds it back from true greatness.
