Review of Demon Squad

Demon Squad (2019)
5/10
If they had a budget, this would have been a better movie.

Warning: Spoilers
This movie had some fun elements and some interesting story ideas. It was a case where the filmmakers' ambitions were beyond their grasp.

So Nick Moon is a Paranormal investigator in what I am guessing is Alabama. The plot follows the basic story structure of a Film Noir detective story, with Demons replacing gangsters. I do give some props to the makeup effects, which weren't bad. The other special effects and the lack of locations or sets was a real shortcoming on this film. It's also clear they didn't have a sound budget to go back and ADR some of the dialog, which is unintelligible.

Most of the movie is spent hunting down a magic McGuffin that is used to create an uber-demon monster. There is a showdown at the end and the main character has an Arc, which is a little incomplete. Not a bad watch for a low budget film.
