DEMONS I & II

(4K BLU-RAY)

 

They will make cemeteries their cathedrals and the cities will be your tombs... in 4K UHD! Regarded by horror fans the world over as two of the greatest Italian horror films ever made, Lamberto Bava's Demons films are not only major cinematic nightmare fuel, but also hugely entertaining splatterfests of the highest order. Synapse's 2013 Blu-rays remain two of their most popular releases, and now they're bringing these favorites to 4K UHD and remastered Blu-ray in brand-new spectacular 4K restorations! These horrific splatter classics produced by Dario Argento (Suspiria) have never looked or sounded better and are packed with hours of special features, making this the ultimate home video release of these horror favorites. In Demons, a masked man offers tickets to a horror movie sneak preview at the mysterious Metropol cinema. When a patron is scratched by a prop displayed in the theatre lobby, she transforms into a flesh-ripping demon! One by one, the audience members mutate into horrible creatures hell-bent on destroying the world! Can anyone escape this gory terror?

In 1986's ambitious sequel Demons 2, the apocalyptic terror continues! A televised horror film spells doom for the residents of a luxury high-rise apartment, as demons are unleashed through the TV screen at a girl's birthday party. As more and more residents are infected and transformed into blood-thirsty demons, a young couple fights to survive as they try to escape Hell on Earth!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

1. Your avatar is a handsome cat.  Is he yours?

You are a person of good taste.  Yes, that's Albert and he's a handsome gentleman cat of 16 years.  He snoozes on my desk while overseeing all eBay activities to ensure I meet his high standards.  He is a kind and furry overlord.

 

2. Will you please hold an item for me until I get paid next week?

I'm sorry, but no.  I rely on eBay for my income and as such I can't hold items.  Albert likes high priced cat food and I hate to disappoint him.

 

3. How soon will you ship my item?

I ship the next business day from Monday through Friday.  If you purchase an item and pay for it on Tuesday, for example, it will be packaged Tuesday night and sent out with my mail carrier on Wednesday.  Items paid for on the weekend will be shipped on Monday.

 

4.. I have other questions.  Can I ask you something else?

Go for it.  Just send me a message on eBay and I will reply as soon as I can.  I'm more than happy to carry on a conversation about movies, anime, the magnificence of Albert the cat and pretty much anything else that sparks my interest.
