The boys are back for Spooktober. Rob and David going duo because Jen didn’t want to watch this week’s bad movie. Boy did they find a bizarre bigfoot movie. Demonwarp starts out as a normal slasher flick with a skunk ape shaped killer like you find for a dime a dozen in sasquatch cinema circles. Then goes off the rails in the third act. Demonwarp stars George Kennedy (that white haired guy from the Naked Gun movies, no the other one) on the VHS box art, a scream queen, a bunch of nobody main actors, and a box full of monster masks.
