Reviews: Demon Hunter (2005) Movie Review
Genres: Horror
Subgenres: Demons, Epic Battle, Hunter
Exploring Demon Hunter (2005) through our review, we cover its story, scares, and how it fits into the broader horror genre landscape.
Demon Hunter is the story of a half-breed named Jacob who faces the moral dilemma of having a dark soul but a mortal body. Along with which the fact that he is damned to go to hell. A fallen angel, the demon Asmodeus, has been seducing prostitutes and impregnating them, similar to how the incubus does. These women then become possessed and must hold the pregnancy until birth. That also describes how Jacob came to be. There is even the appearance of a succubus that tries to play on Jacob’s morals.
Demon Hunter was shocked by the amount of work and quality. I am a big fan of the "Devil May Cry" game series, and I found myself saying it was similar but equally as good. The soundtrack is top-notch with rock music while still fitting in with the movie settings. The plot was good, with an unforeseen twist at the last second. The acting was pretty spot on with no real faults, and even the dialog was good without the stereotypical macho nonsense that most films of this time exhibit. Even the special effects were few but well used and, when used, not of the cheesy variety. I enjoyed Demon Hunter and will recommend this film to any fans of Blade, Constantine, and Demons.
