Debbie Does Demons

This was my introduction into the world of David Farmer, and while it doesn't make me want to watch more of his movies, it certainly founds a place in my b-movie, schlock-loving heart.

The titular Debbie doesn't actually "do" any demons, that's handled by the main antagonist who shows up topless and remains so thru the entire movie. Of course, you'll stop noticing that once the story kicks in and people start being kissed into joining the dark side-- a tactic Darth Vader simply never considered.

I can't in good faith give this movie a rating any higher than a 5, but if IMDb allowed for a secondary "bad movie" rating, this would be a solid 8.

Most movies have something to help redeem them. Good acting, the story, effects, cinematography, premise etc. This movie has none. Not a single good actor (I'm still convinced they aren't actors. Just randoms from the streets), no good camera shots, no good effects. Its' not even the kind of movie that you should watch just to say you've watched it. It's pure trash with nothing redeeming or worthwhile. And for this to come out around Halloween is kinda insulting.

Save yourself the trouble of sitting through this or even watching a trailer. Avoid and go stick on literally any other movie and your time won't be wasted.

So this is a garbage pile of a movie but it still has some charm. Having seen some of Farmer's work this one's far from the worst. Gotta love the ultra cheap outfits and Halloween store rubber masks.

Best of all though is the sleaze. Goddess Jessa Flux being topless almost the entire film is a huge (No pun intended) plus! Now here's what provoked me to actually write this review. You have to be a juvenile mouthbreather to suggest that Ms Flux ought to lose 40 pounds from that beautiful frame of perfection. News flash kiddo: She actually looks like a real and stunning woman.

I apologize for dragging this down to a debate over appearances...

This is a review, for whatever it is.

I don't hate it, didn't enjoy it (except for the low-energy but committed demon-puppet sex scene and a great simple Republican jab) and the recommendation from RedLetterMedia really caught my eye on what really is Donald Farmer's worst movie, if you can believe that.

Has better lighting in places than a lot of other films in the space though, and Jessa Flux is giving it her all quite literally.

The whole TV show angle was annoying and there were too many characters that should have lead to more seduction and/or death scenes that did either in more creative ways. This isn't good.

If someone makes a movie called "Debbie Does Demons," you have to wonder who the movie is actually for. You would attract people that would enjoy watching silly shlock.

However, this movie was done by a few morbidly obese friends who don't know anything about making a film, including editing, how to set up a shot, or even how to focus. You have characters talking off screen, people constantly flubbing their lines, and clunky explanations instead of any exposition. It's just painful to watch.

There is nothing of value here. The main actress gets topless right away and after that there's nothing else to see. (In fact, it's on the disc so you can just toss it into the trash after opening the case up. ) She makes out with a monster prop for a few minutes but there's no effort to make it look like anything other than a toy she just picks up. There's no humor, action, or real story other than "a witch is trying to kill me, here are some scenes."

Watch Birdemic instead.
