What posessed me?

"This DVD has three short films about demonic posession; The Devil's Spell, Witches' Dolls, and Resurrection of the Damned.



The Devil's Spell: A blatant rip-off of the first Night of the Demons film about a group of college kids meeting in a house and one by one being turned into demons as they are slain in silly ways. There's not even a hint of skin in the one sex scene - in which continuity goes out the window. Even the boom mike comes into view at the beginning of the film



Witches' Dolls: Is an interesting (at times) story of an elderly woman who arrives in a guest house and who then proceeds to trick the guests into giving her their souls.



Resurrection of the Damned: this is, in a sense the biggest rip-off of the bunch. It is a edited down version of the 1992 film "Netherworld" - it's exactly that same film, only with large pieces removed to make for a version that fits in with the format of this DVD.

Netherworld/Resurrection of the Damned is an odd story of a guy visiting the deep south looking for his dead father. The odd thing is that some of the people in this, when they are 'posessed' they become colourful feathered birds!"
