Why so much hype?
Strong and Moving!
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
My Demon Lover (1987) is an exercise in futility. A film like this should be tossed into a dustbin and never see the light of day. Sadly folks many of these films saw their hey day during this time period. People want to complain about the films that are being made today need to take a look back during the 80's and see what was being made.Well, My Demon Lover stars that loser from Family Ties and that actress from the equally bad 80's flick Sweet Revenge. Inane acting and a junkie plot doom this film from the get go. They should have had more demons and less love. After this came out I was wondering 'what's next, the Art of Being Nick on the silver screen?"Avoid like the plague...
This movie was very entertaining. It was funny has well as weird. I found it more entertaining then The Monster Squad, at least this movie did'nt have campy dialog. It was nice to see Scott Valentine break away from Family Ties for a little while. The story is about Denny(played with a lot of sweetness by Michelle Little) who seems to have bad luck with romance, that all changes when she meets Kaz(played comicaly well by Scott Valentine) they start out has friends, but little does Denny know that when Kaz gets turned on by women, he becomes monster, Valentine and Little are charming. This is one of my favorite 80's movie.
I'm apparently the 2nd person to see this movie. In 2 years. But I'm not sorry. It's obviously very low-budget; silly--well, actually, this is one of those movies I describe as "silly, but it *knows* it's silly"; cliched, intentionally (I hope) improbable characters, but somehow it all hangs together. If, like me, you can excuse, or embrace, the schlockiness & deal w/it on its own terms, "My Demon Lover" is very entertaining. If you're looking for a richly detailed plot, laden w/metaphoric symbolism & carefully crafted layers of meaning, complex, realistic-yet-larger-than-life characters on an eternal quest for ever-deepening layers of moral enlightenment, you've obviously wandered in here accidentally--faulty link or something--and ... what? ... no, no, that's alright ... it happens, no prob ... sure ... you have yourself a nice day, now, y'hear? Some very funny lines just cruise right by, all the more effective for being underplayed. The cinematography is frequently very well done, lighting & colors in scene settings used to maximum advantage. Coming from someone who's lived in or near New York City his whole life: they've definitely captured the aura of NYC street scenes. So, anyway, I liked it.
An entertaining premise, adequately handled, with some amusing (if not always top-of-the-line) special effects. The picture is nothing more than a trivial time-killer, but it has a nice spirit. Initially you may be turned off by the behavior of the leading character, but he grows more appealing as the film goes along. On the other hand, Michelle Little plays one of the nicest persons who ever appeared in an 80s film! (**)
