  • Ancient Slumber Podcast Show #1: Demons & Demons 2

    **Originally Released 06/10/2015**

    On the very first Ancient Slumber Podcast Chris and Myron discuss Lamberto Bava's gonzoid classic Demons and its gloopy follow-up Demons 2, plus a few tangents here and there. BE WARNED - this was really a test show to see how we got on and is very rough around the edges but we thought the discussion was good so we wanted to put it out. It was also recorded a while back and there are some time sensitive things mentioned which may not make sense now. Contains spoilers and Chris' filthy potty mouth.

    Movies Discussed & Score Out of 5:

    Demons (1985) Chris - 5/Myron - 4
    Demons 2 (1986) Chris - 4.5/Myron - 4
