Don and Jerry, factory workers who grew up on comic books and B-movies, are fulfilling a lifetime dream: they're producing their own low-budget horror movie. Jeff and Joel, lovers and cinema-verité filmmakers, and a friend of theirs named Mark have come out to Michigan to help the dream come true: they're shooting The Demon Lover for Don and Jerry. Two weeks after production starts, Jeff and Joel and Mark are fleeing Michigan, bullets ricocheting off the car, lives and a complete record of the events in jeopardy. The subject of this film isn't just the ups-and-downs of making a horror movie, it's about cultural snobbery, the disintegration of friendship, puppy love, violence, boredom, money... a diary about encountering the Midwest when you're from someplace else.

| User ReviewChristopher BWatch along with the masterpiece, The Demon Lover, to see all the hard work and incompetence that went into making that masterpiece. In the filmmaker's defense though, it had to be a drag having these documentarians on your team when they think the movie is such a joke. It almost makes it forgivable that the filmmaker's chased them off the set firing Ted Nugent's guns. |
| User ReviewCorey BAn insightful, hilarious, and slightly terrifying documentary precursor to American Movie. This looks into the minds of a bunch of psycho filmmakers, including the maniac Donald G. Jackson (Roller Blade), as they make The Demon Lover. If you are into filmmaking or the horror genre this is required viewing. "They're shooting at us!!" |
