Better Late Then Never

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Saw this on a vhs in the mid 80s. Found the demon damn scary then. Revisited it recently on a blu ray. The demon looked pathetic now. Mind you, it jus the scene of the demon which hasnt aged well. If only they wud have stuck with it being more psychological n had not shown the demon, otherwise it is a very good atmospheric horror film with good performances n solid direction. The story is about an American psychologist who arrives in London to expose a supposed warlock through a scientific conference. The psychologist's colleague who was warned by the warlock not to go ahead with the conference becomes a victim of a freak accident. Niall MacGinnis portrayed the role of the warlock well. His get up n looks were funny, same like it was in Jason n the argonauts. Dana Andrews after playing the detective in Laura, played the role of a psychologist convincingly. The director did a terrific job with his Cat people. In that film he relied more on psychology rather than visual impact. If only the studio wud not have forced him to add the demon in this film.

Skeptical of black magic, devil worship and superstition, an arrogant psychologist gradually begins to question his scientific convictions after the mysterious death of a colleague in this horror thriller from Jacques Tourneur. The film has been criticised over the years for overtly showing the title demon given that Tourneur's earlier 'Cat People' was a pioneer psychological horror movie where everything was implied rather than explicitly shown. Emerging from smoke and clouds, the demon is utterly unsettling though and adds a welcome degree of creepiness to the tale even if its appearance obliterates all ambiguity. Its appearance also adds more dread to the tale with Dana Andrews coming off as foolish in his attempt to rationalise everything and suspense coming from the question of whether he will open up his mind to the possibility of black magic being real before it is too late. In fact, the only significant drawback of the film is how difficult a character Andrews is to like with his smug and frequently condescending attitude and demeanour. Niall MacGinnis is delightful with his questioning of "where does imagination end and reality begin?" and the final ten or so minutes of the movie are utterly intense with a strong sense of impending doom. Several images from this final stretch are absolutely haunting and linger in the mind long after the film has concluded.

Night Of The Demon its a British films that deals with subjects such as witchery, satanism, skepticism and more, the film relies on suspense and its chilling atmosphere rather than having a monster killing people , actually the monster appears at the very beginning, many people say that they showed it too early, but I think that it makes the movie better, because for the rest of the film you are waiting for him to appear at the final act and the payoff its great.The movie its actually very chilling at some points, I am not scared of any movie but this one make me cringe a bit at the very end, when the demon looks kinda of real for a second.The film says a lot about superstitions and skepticism, subjects I found to be very interesting.Overall, the film works at many levels, it shows the monster at the beginning but it actually uses that to its benefit, the characters are very likable, the acting its great and the effects are great too.Definitely recommended.

This is a superbly done combination of horror and suspense featuring top-notch actors, engaging dialog and excellent atmosphere.My only criticisms are that the demon appeared too early in the film and by modern standards is not very compelling as an object to frighten or terrify. One wonders if the film would have been better with just the preliminary special effects and no visible demon. In any case the movie is otherwise stunning and engaging.Niall MacGinnis' performance as an extremely intelligent but narcissistic villain who has gotten in over his head and sees no way out is captivating. I actually feel some sympathy for the man despite his amoral nature.Today's kids would lose interest quickly and find the demon rather laughable, but anyone who enjoys getting into the heads of believable characters as they try to grapple with the unbelievable won't be sorry to spend a little time with this work.
