‘Wishmaster’s’ Andrew Divoff Battles ‘Demons’ in This Exclusive Trailer Debut!

Published

on

Bloody Disgusting has the exclusive world premiere trailer debut for Miles Doleac’s supernatural Demons.

Featuring a superlative ensemble, many of whom are known for their work in the horror and sci-fi field, including writer-director-star Doleac (American Horror Story), Wishmaster’s Andrew Divoff, and “Smallville” alum John Schneider, Demons tells of a celebrated fiction writer and former priest who, along with his wife, are tormented by the ghost of her late sister, as the details of her grisly death are slowly uncovered.

Scripted by Doleac, Demons is described as a “psychological thriller that marries elements of The Exorcist, The Shining and The Big Chill.

Demons arrives in limited theaters and on VOD platforms October 3, 2017.

Eight years ago, Father Colin Hampstead oversaw an aborted exorcism that resulted in the gruesome death of seventeen-year-old Jewel Grant, in rural Louisiana. The deceased girl’s older sister, Kayleigh, grew immediately attached to Hampstead and sought him out, at first for grief counseling and then, for much more.

“Eight years later, Hampstead has left the priesthood and become a celebrated fiction writer, specializing in stories about the occult, and he and Kayleigh, now his wife, have a beautiful daughter and run a well-known bed and breakfast in Savannah, GA. When the couple agrees to host a wedding for one of Colin’s college friends, what begins as a Big Chill-type reunion turns into something much more macabre, as the seemingly omnipresent ghost of her dead sister Jewel compels Kayleigh to engage in bizarre, destructive behaviors that endanger the lives of both her friends and herself.

Demons, starring Miles Doleac, Lindsay Anne Williams, Steven Brand, Kristina Emerson, Gary Grubbs, with Andrew Divoff and John Schneider, hits theaters in October via Uncork’d Entertainment.
