Reviews from Letterboxd”

Scumbalina – ★☆☆☆☆
“Demon Cop is one of those movies where you can’t tell if it’s a failed attempt at being deep or just incompetently made. The pacing is glacial, the narration is bizarre, and the demon barely shows up.” -
Spektor – ★☆☆☆☆
“This was like watching molasses melt in winter. The demon is on screen for what feels like 3 minutes total. Nothing happens, but it thinks it’s profound.” -
trashgang – ★☆☆☆☆
“Even as a fan of garbage-tier cinema, this tested my patience. It’s not ‘so bad it’s good,’ it’s ‘so bad it’s boring.’ Only redeeming quality is the VHS aesthetic.” -
CaptainDeadite – ★☆☆☆☆
“Painfully slow and incoherent. The kind of movie that gets played at bad movie nights, but even then people might just talk over it out of boredom.” -
cinemasturbator – ★☆☆☆☆
“A true endurance test. Wings Hauser tries to act with intensity, but everything else—from editing to effects—is absolutely abysmal.”
Meta Description:
A cursed ex-cop turns into a bloodthirsty monster in Demon Cop (1990), a low-budget horror oddity filled with strange narration, sluggish pacing, and fleeting glimpses of its titular creature. Cult movie collectors, beware—this one’s infamous for all the wrong reasons.
