Editorial Reviews
To receive a large amount of money, four hot teenage girls must spend the night in an old haunted house. Soon after arriving, a strange man comes by to deliver an old book full of magic incantations. Reading the contents aloud, the group accidentally brings a cartoon character (a wolf-like monster) to life, which desires the blood of young ladies! In their struggle to survive, the girls do whatever it takes to return the creature back to the book.

A great little sexploitation movie with ample nudity to keep you entertained.It is a mixture of live action with a cartoon demon thrown in.i owned the dvd but wanted great quality so i purchased the blu ray which didn't have great quality.It had a lot of snow in the first 15 minutes in the picture.I would have given the movie a 4 star but for the lousey reproduction.A bunch of college girls are paid to clean up an old mansion which they find out had a number of murders committed in it.they find an old book of demonolog yand call up the cartoon demon.robert Carridine comes to the rescue at the end to redeem the girls and his soul.the dvd moves along quickly and is highly entertaining

"Evil Toons" is a peculiar movie about coeds in a haunted house from the notorious Fred Olen Ray. The premise is simple: four coeds arrive to spend the weekend cleaning an old house; an evil spirit haunts them resulting in mayhem, bloodshed, and other typical debauchery. The acting is absolutely terrible even for this genre: the best of the girls is Monique Gabrielle who, believe it or not, plays the nerdy and reserved Megan.
The real gimmick here is the animated monster who is nefarious indeed. He's onscreen for precious little time due to budgetary concerns, but I have to admit, after listening to Ray describe the laborious process they went through to get the composite footage, it looks pretty good and is definitely an interesting change for movies of this ilk. Today the animation would be done with CGI of course, but when this was made that was in the future, and each cel was hand-painted in New York around the master shot. The stars of the film are David Carradine and Arte Johnson, who turn in perfectly adequate performances even though they are not onscreen very much. I was actually most creeped out by the footage of David Carradine tightening a noose around his own neck in light of his tragic death. I did like the talking book effect, and thought it was cleverly employed in the storyline.
While the movie is very predictable with little to recommend it other than the animation novelty, the DVD is great, and there are loads of extras. I always appreciate the Retromedia releases, and this time they gave us a director's commentary track, the original trailer, part of the editor's original work print of the movie, a brief "making of" feature, and the original "Nite Owl Theater" host segment starring Ray. By far the best of the extras is Fred Olen Ray's commentary: it is genuinely interesting and very enlightening about low budget filmmaking (I especially enjoyed the recounting of the film's origins with the weird but economical "Millennium Countdown" tie-in.) Ray isn't afraid of exposing flaws in his own films (note the long discussion of doorknob and door hinge mismatch issues,) and is quick to explain interesting technical points without getting bogged down in minutiae. The animation process details he gives are especially noteworthy. The "making of" feature is a bit of a letdown if you have already listened to the commentary as much of it is a rehash, although I did enjoy the segment of film dubbed into French. The trailer is a camp classic, but that makes sense because so is the movie. The original editor's work print is very interesting to compare to the finished product, although I would have liked to see this cut of the entire film instead of the brief section that the DVD shows.
"Evil Toons" was a very ambitious film, especially on a $140,000 budget. If you are a connoisseur of the "coeds in peril" genre, this is a unique film you won't want to miss.

This isn't even a C movie. It's a D... perhaps Double D. Yes, it should be more of a soft core porn versus a "horror". Well, the writing, the acting, the set, they are all pretty scary actually. But not the way they should be. Yes, there are a few (don't blink, you'll miss em) funny scenes but the rest is painful. Really, unless you're really drunk or stoned, or have some other thing that attracts you to this, it's terrible.

This is a classic and what I expected however this disc has sound problems. The sound is so low that I need to turn the volume all of the way up? Nevertheless it is a fun show.

I got this because Madison is in it, and she does an awesome job. She should receive more prominent billing—she's definitely steals the movie. Too bad she didn't do more mainstream films.

This has stood the test of a cult classic. This obscure horror film DVD quickly reached the $40.00 mark. They made a re-issue of it, and it too sailed up to that level. In that regard, this film rates up there with the original "Night of the Demons."
What separated this film from the pack was the cartoon "Taz" like demon with a sense of humor. He was smartly integrated into the film with an attack rape scene with porn star Madison Stone. This was the scene that made the film a cult classic as the demon's tongue licked her chest and caused her bra to come apart. I will take that scene to my perverted grave.
The cast includes David Carradine, Arte Johnson, and scream queen Michelle Bauer, in case 4 topless co-eds aren't enough for you. The other porn star in this film, Barbara Dare, plays a shy geeky girl. Monique Gabrielle was the Dec. 1982 "Pet of the Month." What was most amazing was the better than normal caliber acting from the porn stars. Plot summary: Girls clean house. Girls get ancient book. Girls accidentally summon a demon.
Now if you don't have the money to shell out to buy this film, do a Google search and you might find it free to watch on line. For me this is a must for any horror cult collection.

After spying this title on video shelves back in the 90s - yes kids - that was when 'DVD' wasn't in the dictionary - I kept finding myself drawn to this title.
I was a kid and it had an 18 certificate and that's the way it remained - until I watched it for the first time earlier this year.
I was expecting a lot more in terms of plot and female flesh on show.
So much potential considering how graphic the drawings in the book were when it came to the demon performing sexual acts on the girl.
We never get to see any of that stuff in the movie.
All we get is a cartoon demon jumping on the most sexually active member of the group and flicking her top off with his tongue.
I was expecting 'Urotsukidoji - Return Of The Overfiend' style sex to happen to the girl.
That being said - this film is still enjoyable and like 'Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers' deserves to be put in your 'Midnight Movies' stash.

Fred Olen Ray fun film
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 27, 2011Verified Purchase
This is not a film to be taken seriously. If you think Roger Rabbit crossed with the Evil Dead, stir in some topless porn stars and wrap it all up in obviously hammy acting you will probably come up with something like Evil Toons. It is all firmly tongue-in-cheek stuff.
A group of four attractive female cleaners take on the job of cleaning a large house in which gruesome things have happened in years past, not that any of this worries our intrepid ladies. It is not long before they decide that exploring the dark basement would be a sensible thing to do where they discover an ancient book. This is when nasty things start to happen, all watched over by David Carradine who has his own reasons for being there.
This is a fun film and anyone looking for lots of gore should look elsewhere. In typical Fred Olen Ray style there are some sexy bits but it is all done tactfully. It is an enjoyable 90 minutes or thereabouts.

This film of mixing an animated character with a bevy of young attractive women; David Carradine and the timeless Dick Miller and Michelle Bauer is 'straight to video' entertainment of the F.O.Ray/J.Wynorski/D.Decotau camp. Do not expect high brow partical physics just sit back and enjoy. Especially the way an actress is replaced with another in the Ed Wood mode.
