This movie is one of the most memorable of my life. It came out right in time for my eleventh birthday so I went with my dad. The ticket guy was some old dude and was like “this movie may not be appropriate for your kid.” My dad shrugged it off and once we were out of ear range said “I don’t know what the big deal is. He plays mortal kombat all the time and it’s not like someone is going to get their head punched off.” Twenty minutes into the movie…
If you haven’t seen this, you’ve been living under a rock your whole life! Such a underrated horror flick, great cast, story, gore, humor, everything you’d want in a 90’s horror flick, especially a tales from the crypt film
I’ve always tried to think of another actor that could have pulled off Billy Zane’s character as well as he did and I honestly can’t come up with even one.His campiness in this film is spot on and I absolutely love him in this.
This movie freaked me out as a little kid. Then rented it later when I could handle it and ended up loving it. Have it on DVD and Blu-ray and I always show any friend who has yet to experience it.
This is one of my top ten favorite movies of all time. It's so inventive and bonkers and I'm glad there are more eyes on it due to this. Also, Billy Zane is in the top three devils for me, right next to Pacino in "The Devil's Advocate," and Peter Stormare in "Constantine."
Its so good to see this movie get some love. I loved this movie as a kid, Billy Zane and Bill Sadler's Breaker were really compelling and fun characters. So much better than it was treated when it came out.
Tales From The Crypt is an amazing series, its a crime they haven't rebooted it especially considering the mainstream popularity of horror/anthology shows at the moment? And films are great too, especially - "demon knight" it's got a strong cast(some returning from the series) good practical effects, and entertaining story.
Agree and they were actually going to reboot it somewhat recently with M Night Shyamalan as the showrunner but that got shit-canned. Probably for the best.
Yeah, I don't know why they'd need - " M. Night " to help with the show? He'd probably of just ruined it( like most of his endings) they should just bring it back as it was, with the original writers, puppeteers and voice actor( as the Crypt Keeper) it'd be great, and most likely well received by audiences, as the original series was.👍
Unless they can bring back Kassirs Cryptkeeper, I'd rather they didn't bring it back, Instead they'd be better off making a Vault of Horror series where they can design the host (Vaultkeeper) however they want. Or maybe have the Old Witch present.
Yup. I got the first two seasons on DVD recently. It holds up very well. It's an HBO original series , meaning it's graphic , gory and sexy(a lot of nudity).
I remember sneaking into the theater to watch this. My best friend Josh and I were like in the 3rd grade like 9-10 years old. We used to love the show and watched every episode. We couldn’t go see it because it was rated R. So we came up with whole plan and ended up tricking his parents, and we snuck in the theatre and watched it. The 99’s were some good times!!
My immense love and admiration for this film is almost impossible to put into words. I'm not always one to get multiple copies of one thing, whether it's a movie or book, whatever but this is one of the rare ones. Thanks for covering this! I wholeheartedly believe it's a masterpiece and it deserves all the love it gets and its cult classic status. All the actors are utterly incredible in their performances! Everyone mentions Billy Zane, which I mean, he deserves it, definitely a scene stealer! But William Sadler is one of the best tragic heros! Jada Pinkett Smith absorbs her role, I felt for her so much. She was likeable, honest and layered. Also, Thomas Haden Church is so awesome to hate in this because I mostly knew him as dimwitted Lowell in Wings but this character couldn't be more different. The demon design is one of my favorite creature effects. Plus, perfectly paced flick. Everything just works and kicks ass! 🖤🎭💙
I taped this off M-net (South African pay TV station) in the 90's and forced everyone I know to watch it. It has a Cult following in my small circle and my sister and I revisit it at least once a year. Needless to say, I love this movie. To this day, I still use Thomas Haden Church's line in my day to day conversations ("Whores Ain't Got No Friends")
May sound odd but the best scene in Demon Knight that I just absolutely crack at is when he lets the sponge loose out of his mouth. Something about that scene just cracks me up everytime.
Nothing better on the ears than a 90s movie soundtrack! I've loved DK ever since I was a kid and I fondly remember wearing out the vhs back in the 90s. It's such an entertaining movie that really captures the best of what the tv show had to offer. I wish the show had a longer run but I'm happy we at least got 7 seasons. It's probably my favorite horror show of all time. I'm so baffled as to why we haven't gotten a badass 4K Bluray Boxset of the show. Of course I'd want it to be complete with new interviews from almost everyone involved and other quality special features. I know it'd take a while to get together but it's totally worth it and if any show out there deserves a UHD release, this is it. Hopefully we get it sooner than later.
I saw this in the theater in high school. I still think it is a great little film with a good story. It is funny as hell too...Billy Zane was hilarious.
William Sadler delivering one of the most ridiculous exposition dumps in movie history, and he f***ing nails it! He plays it so straight and you really feel for the guy.
I remember watching this movie at the local drive-in. My uncle took my brother and I to it. I was 14, so I especially enjoyed the nudity scene. A couple months later I rented the VHS copy( mostly for the nudity) . Very underappreciated movie with an awesome soundtrack. Glad it got some love via this review. Haven't watched it since then. Need to watch it now. Maybe I'll let my nephew watch along, as sort of a "tradition"?😋
I have the stars tattooed on my hand to remind me of how much this movie scared the utter shit out of me as a child. Those demons are CLASSIC, and Billy Zane is the ABSOLUTE man.
I only watched this a while ago and loved it. The green lighting they used on the demons was very retro and cool. Reminds me of the evil dead films. Just an all round fun horror
Yes! This is one of my faves and I always show it to people for a good time. Billy Zane is just a gem in this movie. I still quote the hodunk podunk line.
My mom loves horror and in the 90s was super into Tales From The Crypt. I basically saw Demon Knight as soon as it came out. I loved it as a little kid and that nostalgia carriers into being an adult, lol. I rewatch it (along with a bunch of other movies) every Halloween. The other TFTC movie Bordello Of Blood is also awesome, not necessarily good but I always enjoy it when I watch it.
I have always had a love of quirky movies that fell outside of the mainstream, from Toxic Avenger and other Tromaville productions, to the Evil Dead series, and many more. Demon Knight was right up my alley. And just as a side note, let's be honest--this is probably the most fun Billy Zane ever had with a role.
90s soundtracks were always so dope. I actually used to buy them when I was a kid. Basketball diaries and Natural born killers were two of my faves but I also remember forest Gump, pulp fiction, last action hero. So many greats
It is glorious. Great characters with so much quotable dialogue in an excellent blend of horror and comedy. The narrative is straight to the point, the effects and makeup are spot on.
I have my personal list of Cult classics which includes Pulp Fiction, Four Rooms, Kill Bill volumes 1 & 2, Demon Knight, Enter The Ninja, Falling Down, From Dusk Til Dawn, Death Proof, Planet Terror, Rabid, Judge Dredd, Demolition Man and They Live
He's absolutely right about demon night it took me for a shock when I saw it when it released I'm not sure if I saw it in the theaters or not there's just a quality of acting from further and actors from the '80s and '90s that just will never be replicated I wish horror movies of today were half as good as this I still watch tales from the crypt on TH-cam thank God they haven't taken it grew up off of that
My mother took me to see this when I was 10/11 years old. Scared the shit out of me. I remember not understanding the "turn to page 69" joke from the Billy Madison trailer, as the theater chuckled.
I still remember seeing this in fangoria long before it was released, the film on its eventual arrival did not disappoint. Unfortunately I've not seen it in nearly 20 years but I'll definitely try find a copy after this reminder Wasn't dusk till dawn supposed to be part of the trilogy?
It was the summer of 1996 (10 years old at the time), my buddy was having a sleep over and one of his friends brought a stack of VHS tapes to watch. That night, I was introduced to, not only, Demon Knighy but also the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Jason Goes to Hell Been 3 of my favorite movies ever since. And yes, Jason Goes to Hell is fanfuckintastic
The first time I watched this when it first came out I didn't care for it . I don't know how that was , because it's freaking awesome. I've seen it numerous times since . Billy Zane is so good in it .
One of my favorite Movies from the 90's, I just bought yesterday the 30th anniversary of Pepsi clear. And I think to celebrate the epicness of this movie I think it's only Fair to drink my Pepsi Clear while watching it. I'm going to be 40 on August 17th and I already feel like Bone Dust.. so let's go out with a Bang! Great Review on this Movie you have a new subscriber in me 🤘🇨🇦🤘 Keep on Truckin brothaa!
On point! The sad thing is that Billy Zane got wasted after this. He´s an INCREDIBLE actor. I can´t believe he didn´t stay working regularly. He deserved the best.
Hey Jo Blo......... I have seen this movie and one of my favorites! Can't say the same for Bordello of Blood! They kinda tried on that one....but can't hold a candle!
Can’t remember if my first time watching this was renting it from Blockbuster or seeing it on HBO. Either way, I was stoked because I was obsessed with TFTC. Way better than Bordello of Blood.
Have I seen this movie? HELL YEAH! This movie is really fun to watch, and yes this is Billy Zane's movie. I have seen a alot of films in my time, and this is one of my go too films for fun along with Big Trouble In Little China and Goonies, just to name a few. This is definitely a watch.
Oh and a shout-out to Minty* who's got '10 Things You(probably) Didn't Know' about this great flick th-cam.com/video/hXfuFVq-GoM/w-d-xo.html Ironically he shares the same name as the Director as well, Mark Bishop, which he makes clear is a cool coincidence.
As much as bordello is a guilty pleasure ( multiple reasons) I always wonder where the series would have went if it got it’s original vampire film from dusk till dawn. But daemon knight is top 5 pure dumb fun rewatchable horrors so underrated
Actually I have seen it. Many, many times. I still try to convince people who haven't seen it to check it out. They almost never do which I don't understand and is getting quite frustrating after a couple of decades. I still remember the talk show segments from a long since cancelled Aussie late night show and the clip they used was Billy creating the demons and it cut right after he kissed that one. Solid choice as it's a great clip to show exactly what you're in for. The two Bills (Zane and Saddler) get a lifetime exemption from doing anything wrong because this movie will make up for it. Along with Shawshank for one Bill and The Phantom for the other. Don't judge me. Zane is perfect and Treat Williams gives an insane performance that's so much fun it lifts the whole movie like a rising tide. I could go on about cult faves from the 90's. What a glorious time for film. The Shadow. OK, I'll stop.
Man I I was 10 years old when this soundtrack came out and I would listen to Hey Man Nice Shot repeatedly on my dad's stereo system in the living room. Truly one of my all time favorite songs
My niece was about that age when this came out. At first she was scared, but when Billy kissed the demon's head we told her "see it's a baby, he kissed it" she was totally okay after that.
This movie is one of the most memorable of my life. It came out right in time for my eleventh birthday so I went with my dad. The ticket guy was some old dude and was like “this movie may not be appropriate for your kid.” My dad shrugged it off and once we were out of ear range said “I don’t know what the big deal is. He plays mortal kombat all the time and it’s not like someone is going to get their head punched off.”
Twenty minutes into the movie…
This movie made me a Billy Zane fan. Love seeing him pop up in random movies. This character should have had sequels.
If you haven’t seen this, you’ve been living under a rock your whole life! Such a underrated horror flick, great cast, story, gore, humor, everything you’d want in a 90’s horror flick, especially a tales from the crypt film
I remember seeing this on opening weekend. The cast was great, especially Billy Zane. The Dark humor was great. The Demons looked spectacular.
I’ve always tried to think of another actor that could have pulled off Billy Zane’s character as well as he did and I honestly can’t come up with even one.His campiness in this film is spot on and I absolutely love him in this.
Billy Zane Nickolas Cage'd the fuck out of this role and we, in this timeline, were robbed of a double bill of the two.
@@erinmalinoski9479 Me neither yo.
I remember watching the show on HBO as a kid..... Man what a KILLER show 😉 😉
@@cooldrop02Zane was having fun period.
Billy Zane’s “ho dunk po dunk” line is dialogue gold. It stuck with me since I first saw this.
Best scene! F this cowboy sh*t!
Me too dude my while fucking life, I've recited that line for almost 30 years always loved Billy Zane for this
I say "if it makes ya feel good, do it" almost daily🤝🏻
My dad used to go around saying that when I was a kid 😂
This movie freaked me out as a little kid. Then rented it later when I could handle it and ended up loving it. Have it on DVD and Blu-ray and I always show any friend who has yet to experience it.
This is one of my top ten favorite movies of all time. It's so inventive and bonkers and I'm glad there are more eyes on it due to this. Also, Billy Zane is in the top three devils for me, right next to Pacino in "The Devil's Advocate," and Peter Stormare in "Constantine."
Billy Zane should have won an Oscar.
He was really good in this.
Definitely some quotable lines there.
So many memorable lines
@@Captofthisship 🤙 so many
Facts he was amazing. Maybe my all time favorite villain.
The scene where Gravediggas was playing 1800-suicide in the background while Billy Zane tried to lure Jada Pinkett to the darkside was exquisite.
Its so good to see this movie get some love. I loved this movie as a kid, Billy Zane and Bill Sadler's Breaker were really compelling and fun characters. So much better than it was treated when it came out.
This movie is a damn masterpiece. It's Billy Zane's best role. I'd fist fight my grama if said otherwise, and I fucking love my grama.
I’ll fight you in an alley if you say otherwise
Love this movie! Amazing cast! Zane was especially great, and you can’t go wrong with William Sadler.
This movie deserves it's cult status and Billy Zane's performance should get him a seat at the horror icon - cool kid's table.
Agreed. He murdered this everyone of his scenes.
Nah, he doesn't deserve a seat at the table, but when they walk around school and clown people he is a thousand percent not atarget.
It’s directed by a black dude. Sad.

Pretty sure it's a copyright issue. It's why it's not being streamed too. Why you have to rely on grainy TH-cam videos to watch the show.
Unless they can bring back Kassirs Cryptkeeper, I'd rather they didn't bring it back, Instead they'd be better off making a Vault of Horror series where they can design the host (Vaultkeeper) however they want. Or maybe have the Old Witch present.

Can we all agree that the 90s were the age of amazing movie soundtracks?
The Crow was one of my favorites.
Sliver had a good one too.
Yeah I would have to agree with you there
Agreed.
Another childhood gem, i remember being both impressed and creeped out by the practical effects 😅
Absolutely loved this movie. Never understood why Billy Zane hasn’t got more great roles. Personally I think he would be a pretty amazing Lex Luthor.
I remember sneaking into the theater to watch this. My best friend Josh and I were like in the 3rd grade like 9-10 years old. We used to love the show and watched every episode. We couldn’t go see it because it was rated R. So we came up with whole plan and ended up tricking his parents, and we snuck in the theatre and watched it. The 99’s were some good times!!
Loved this movie so much when I was a kid. Even had the soundtrack!
Literally one of my favorite movies! I still love tales from the crypt period and still watch episodes on TH-cam!
My immense love and admiration for this film is almost impossible to put into words. I'm not always one to get multiple copies of one thing, whether it's a movie or book, whatever but this is one of the rare ones. Thanks for covering this!

Billy Zane is a beautiful man. I'll never forget seeing him first in Dead Calm.

Out of everything tales from the crypt, this film was the greatest! Wish they had continued the franchise
Billy Zane has so many great lines in this. Mad respect for posting.
May sound odd but the best scene in Demon Knight that I just absolutely crack at is when he lets the sponge loose out of his mouth. Something about that scene just cracks me up everytime.
So underrated loved this one ! Was hoping they made a sequel
I'm Glad This Movie Is Getting The Love It Should Have Got Years Ago

Billy Zane is so underrated as an actor.
7 yrs before his most famous role of cal hockely!
I love all things Tale's From The Crypt and wish more people would talk about it now a days
William Sadler delivering one of the most ridiculous exposition dumps in movie history, and he f***ing nails it! He plays it so straight and you really feel for the guy.
Love this movie! Billy Zane and Jada Pinkett were my favorites in the movie. Great atmosphere, likeable or relatable characters, great score.
Billy Zane needs a huge comeback 💯
Agreed
Eh, he was in that Kevin Hart murder mystery show...... He played a sleezy bastard well.
I remember watching this movie at the local drive-in. My uncle took my brother and I to it. I was 14, so I especially enjoyed the nudity scene.

This movie is one of my favorite camp horror movies. Billy Zane was incredible .
I absolutely love this movie. Such a fun and original idea. And Billy Zane steals EVERY scene. Quite possibly my favorite role of his.
I have the stars tattooed on my hand to remind me of how much this movie scared the utter shit out of me as a child. Those demons are CLASSIC, and Billy Zane is the ABSOLUTE man.

To answer the title question: Hell yeah! Love this movie.

I saw this opening night with my mom. I was a huge Tales fan and I love this movie until this day.
I remember having to cover my eyes because the grotesque make up, and animatronics was so convincing, and scary. Takes me back to a simpler time.
I remember loving this movie as a teenager. Brings back old memories.
This is one of the best movies ever ever made😛. I knew it was a classic from the feel of the opening scene on the quiet highway😛👍
90s soundtracks were always so dope. I actually used to buy them when I was a kid. Basketball diaries and Natural born killers were two of my faves but I also remember forest Gump, pulp fiction, last action hero. So many greats
It is glorious. Great characters with so much quotable dialogue in an excellent blend of horror and comedy. The narrative is straight to the point, the effects and makeup are spot on.
one of my favorite horror movies from the 90s. I think i must have watched it more than 10 times and i cant get enough of it
Seeing the tales from the crypt opening on the big screen was so worth the entire budget
saw this in the theaters when it came out, a crazy fun film and a great cast & soundtrack.
One of my favourite movies in general. Great horror, right amount of gore and comedy.
I have my personal list of Cult classics which includes Pulp Fiction, Four Rooms, Kill Bill volumes 1 & 2, Demon Knight, Enter The Ninja, Falling Down, From Dusk Til Dawn, Death Proof, Planet Terror, Rabid, Judge Dredd, Demolition Man and They Live
*The Best Tales From The Crypt Movie... By Far*
best movie that got very little love when it came out... Every actor played there part to perfection.... Billy Zane rocked as the villain
You guys 😊. I suggested this a few weeks ago. You’re awesome thank yous love yous ❤️. Such a good movie. Billy Zane is a National treasure.
Our pleasure!
This is one of the greatest movies ever filmed and I'll Sherlock Holmes anyone who says otherwise. We were ROB of a sequel...
I rewatched this just last week. Excellent.
I saw this for the first time ten years ago on Netflix and loved it. I need to see it again
Demon Knight was awesome! It's a shame it barely gets any airplay even around Halloween.
Yes, I have. And I bought the soundtrack, too. I have it on DVD and Blu-ray and I used to have it on VHS.
thank you for this!!!!! saw it 5 times in the theater!!!!! still love it!!!!
He's absolutely right about demon night it took me for a shock when I saw it when it released I'm not sure if I saw it in the theaters or not there's just a quality of acting from further and actors from the '80s and '90s that just will never be replicated I wish horror movies of today were half as good as this I still watch tales from the crypt on TH-cam thank God they haven't taken it grew up off of that
One of my fav horror films.
My mother took me to see this when I was 10/11 years old.
Scared the shit out of me.
I remember not understanding the "turn to page 69" joke from the Billy Madison trailer, as the theater chuckled.
watched it recently... still holds up!
One of my favorite movies of all time
HELL YEAH!!!!! Along with one of THE Best soundtracks!!!
I saw it opening night and cheered the effects and great directing and acting
I still remember seeing this in fangoria long before it was released, the film on its eventual arrival did not disappoint. Unfortunately I've not seen it in nearly 20 years but I'll definitely try find a copy after this reminder
Wasn't dusk till dawn supposed to be part of the trilogy?
It was the summer of 1996 (10 years old at the time), my buddy was having a sleep over and one of his friends brought a stack of VHS tapes to watch. That night, I was introduced to, not only, Demon Knighy but also the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Jason Goes to Hell
Been 3 of my favorite movies ever since. And yes, Jason Goes to Hell is fanfuckintastic
This was one of my favorite movies as a kid 😩
The first time I watched this when it first came out I didn't care for it . I don't know how that was , because it's freaking awesome. I've seen it numerous times since . Billy Zane is so good in it .

Great fun movie! Awesome actors and a killer soundtrack. That Megadeth track 'Diadems' is unreal!!
This was the first movie that I came ro know the name Billy Zane. Any other role I saw him in after that was never quite the same.
I saw this in the theater and thought it was a wonderfully fun ride!
awesome movie! Great cast. It deserves a sequel.
I saw this the theater and always thought it was underrated.
Can’t remember if my first time watching this was renting it from Blockbuster or seeing it on HBO. Either way, I was stoked because I was obsessed with TFTC. Way better than Bordello of Blood.
Love this movie so damn much, underrated classic.
Have I seen this movie? HELL YEAH! This movie is really fun to watch, and yes this is Billy Zane's movie. I have seen a alot of films in my time, and this is one of my go too films for fun along with Big Trouble In Little China and Goonies, just to name a few. This is definitely a watch.
YES to ALL of them in double scoops!
Legit fav movie of all time

I always liked the scene where a topless Tracii Bingham turns up.
I was just watching this with my 3 year old a couple days ago. She’s absolutely terrified of the demons.
My niece was about that age when this came out. At first she was scared, but when Billy kissed the demon's head we told her "see it's a baby, he kissed it" she was totally okay after that.
Excellent movie from the Crypt Master.
Such a fun movie. One of my favorites!!!
One of the things I really loved is for the first 15-20 minutes, you had no idea who the good guy was and who the bad guy was.
