A local university professor and occult skeptic Harry Ballard, incites the wrath of a violent cult. They kidnap him, intent on teaching him a frightening lesson. He manages to escape only to be pursuded by the groups powerful leader. Ballard becomes less sure of reality as the demons of hell are summoned to track him down. A mysterious girl appears to save him from the cult...or is she working with them?

If your sick of the latest Hollywood recycle (ie House of Wax, 13 Ghosts, etc), check out this surprisingly effective low budget kiwi indie.

I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this movie. I was expecting it to be a typical low budget horror schlock fest, but it ended up making me jump a couple of times and wondering in the end whether it was all real or just the main character's imagination.

The FX are Syfy TV style but this movie is 10 years old. The low par FX are made up by a solid performance by Karl Urban (pre all his now big hits) and Katie Wolfe. Karl keeps the pace moving and does a good job keeping us teetering on the edge of insanity aptly provided by Katie Wolfe.

I grew up watching a lot of B grade horror films so I consider myself to be a fairly reliable critic of this genre. A good B grade horror flick has humor, cheesiness, a hunky hero, just enough scare to make you jump a couple of times, and a gratifying denouement. The Truth About Demons offers all of that. I definitely recommend it.

This movie was totally dumb.if you like boring freaks and demons that look like punkin head and kill without gore,be my guess watch thie stupid waste of money movie.
