Watch The Black Cat For Free

Very best movie i ever watch

That was an excellent one.

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

I hated Lamberto Bava's bafflingly popular DEMONS (1985) and DEMONS 2 (1986); later unrelated Italian horror films were inexplicably passed off as sequels to them – Michele Soavi's THE CHURCH (1989) and THE SECT (1991), Bava's own THE OGRE (1988) and THE DEVIL'S VEIL (1989), and this one by Cozzi (which is also known as DEMONS 6: DE PROFUNDIS, actually the title borne by the copy I watched)! Truth be told, neither does it have anything to do with Edgar Allan Poe – despite fleetingly irrelevant appearances by the titular creature (by the way, the same source also inspired Sergio Martino's YOUR VICE IS A LOCKED ROOM AND ONLY I HAVE THE KEY {1972}, Lucio Fulci's 1981 namesake and, again Dario Argento's episode in the two-part compendium TWO EVIL EYES {1990})! This 'version' also purports to be an unofficial continuation of Argento's "Three Mothers" saga (complete with cues from the famous SUSPIRIA {1977} soundtrack), years before the third entry got made! Whatever the film strives to be, it is perhaps the effort which definitively put the lid on the "Euro-Cult" style that had flourished for some 40 years! Anyway, the plot revolves around the attempts by a long-dead witch to stop an actress from playing her on-screen in a proposed movie about her exploits (I wonder whether she demanded a casting director credit!). That is it, basically – but the result displays a stupefying ineptness in every department and, as was often the case with this type of film, the script does not make a lick of sense (at the climax, the actress is possessed by the spirit of a dead child in order to combat the witch's evil force – with extraneous cutaways to outer space reportedly lifted from Cozzi's "Hercules" flicks)! The latter 'recruits' a number of people for this purpose – including fellow actress and rival for the part Caroline Munro, temperamental wheelchair-bound producer Brett Halsey, his female secretary, a refrigerator repair-man(!), a young boy, the heroine's baby's nanny and, in the very last shot, the toddler itself!; on the side of good, we get the scriptwriter (Munro's husband), the director (the protagonist's own hubby and Munro's lover!) and a female occult expert (who spectacularly expires from an exploding heart!). As I said, events follow one another without any rhyme or reason – which is not necessarily a bad thing, when it manages to create a dream-like aura (and the only such instance here is a nightmare sequence in which the actress attempts to stab her own child under the witch's influence, is stopped by her husband, whom she then attacks but he, in turn, removes the knife and sticks it in her) yet, as a rule, here it is just a succession of repugnant make-up and cheesy effects.

so we all know that the first two demons movies are pretty much as good as it's going to get. i am not going to lie to you after seeing all (seven?) 'demons' movies, I can truly say that the first two entires are masterpieces and the rest are an eclectic bastard lovechildish creative, bad, and completely crazy entries. This movie is so awful in a good way. It's also pretty hard to track down (insert obvious reasons.) It's referred too as like 7 different titles, but the one I was watching was English dubbed audio with Japanese hard subtitles. The movie shamelessly poses as 'Suspiria 2' but at the same time also seems to acknowledge what they're doing is pretty awful so they throw in a lot of funny crazy effects to distract you from the plot that includes a grand total of 4-5 people and pacing that fluctuates between wayyyyy to slow and holy crap what just happened and why?it's not as good as the first two demons movies, but if you like to chuckle at a truly goofy and poorly made movie, this movie is a gold nugget. There's so many unintentionally hilarious moments you can't capture unless you are truly trying to make a serious effort and it just unfolds like a pile of unsorted laundry. Pretty much anything you can think may or may not explode and smoke and leak green worms and intestines WILL AND SHALL. That part's never really explained but a lot of other things are.Hilarious dated effects guaranteed to open your eyes wider than a syfy movie creature shot. I had a fun time with it :)"i'm in the mirror. No - i'm in the rifridgerator , Wait - I'm back in the mirror *blarchhhhh*"

This film bears the title of Demons 6, with either a title of Armageddon or De Profundis, with the latter being the more apt title. However, the film itself holds no real connections to Demoni 1 or 2 or any of the other in name only sequels. The only real connection to the demons films is that the leading man from Demoni, Urbano Barberini, plays the husband to the leading lady. Instead, this film is a loose sequel to Argento's, at the time unfinished, Three Mothers Trilogy. All of which are loosely based on a section of Thomas de Quincey's Suspiria De Profundis (which even makes an appearance!) entitled "Levana and our ladies of Sorrow". Luigi Cozzi's script even acknowledges the existence of Argento's film Suspiria and extends on the idea that the three ladies of sorrow are evil witches who rule the world. Specifically focusing on Mater Lachrymarum, The Mother of Tears. The film centers around Anna Raveanna (Florence Guérin) who is an actress who is set to play the witch Levana in a film that her husband Marc (Urbano Barberini) is making. Levana is not pleased with this and declares that Anna will never be her on the screen and begins spreading madness into Anna's world and using those around her to do her bidding - including kidnapping and planning to sacrifice Anna's newborn baby.There are plenty of similarities between this film and Argento's eventual final film in the trilogy which begs the question of if Luigi had at some point read an early draft of 'The Mother of Tears'. The two share a few common themes, such as a supernatural mentor (Argento's version was her dead mother who was a witch, and in Cozzi's the mentor is a fairy who mentions that fairies and witches are about the same) who eventually guides the leading lady on how to use her own powers to stop Mater Lachrymarum. Even the death of Mater Lachrymarum in both versions are strikingly similar.While this film is nowhere near as good as Suspiria, it is a decent if not official entry in the 'Three Mother Trilogy'. Yes, it has its silly parts (the refrigerator) but it also has its accomplishments. It also of course helps that they chose a great theme song for the film, which is almost as haunting as the original Suspiria theme and attempt to recreate (although not as well) the colored nightmare atmosphere of the superior Suspiria. And of course, there is plenty of gore!

Argento initially wanted to make a Three Mothers Trilogy, movies about 3 powerful witches that cause evil and chaos in the world. His first two movies, Suspiria and Inferno, are absolute masterpieces with wonderful acting and atmosphere. Very bizarre films. He never completed this trilogy. In came Luigi Cozzi, who completed the trilogy with Demons 6 aka the Black Cat. Though not as good as the first two, this movie is definitely a masterpiece that is worthy of praise. Nice midnight like atmosphere and good gore, good acting, a spooky movie. What more can you want? Too bad it is not available in the US, but there is one company that sells it on DVD, uncut, direct from a Japanese transfer source, with English audio and forced Japanese subs.
