Here at Senseless Cinema, we are already well acquainted with the masterworks of Wisconsin-based filmmaker Bill Rebane -- see, for example,
Invasion from Inner Earth (1974),
Rana: The Legend of Shadow Lake (1975),
The Alpha Incident (1977),
The Capture of Bigfoot (1979),
The Game (1984), and
Blood Harvest (1987). Today we will examine perhaps his finest film, The Demons of Ludlow (1983), a supernatural horror movie that combines the best of hit films like Poltergeist (1982) and The Fog (1980).
Some of your universe's critics, as usual, do not appreciate Mr. Rebane's work. For example, reviewer coliver
calls the film "a confusing morass of time periods and storyline that threatened to put me to sleep." Reviewer FilmFatale
writes, clearly blasphemously, "Really, really terrible, even for Rebane." And reviewer preppy-3
calls the film "A no-budget mess."
