This Halloween, all eyes are on a small town in the mountains of Colorado where normally nothing ever happens - because of a big music festival. Too bad that a demon has chosen exactly this day and event to return to earth, making literally his first appearance on the main stage, spreading his blood on as many concert goers as possible, turning them into demons in return.

Exactly on Halloween, Natalie (voiced by Katie Maguire), Jeff (Andreas Peterson) and Kevin (Thomas Peterson), friends from high school, have re-united after years rather by chance and design - and suddenly find themselves on the run from demon hordes, hordes that multiply by spreading their blood on others, including animals. Their first idea is to make it to Jeff's crazy uncle who lives in the woods, is armed to the teeth, and has built all sorts of defense mechanisms into his cabin, and a spooky mine as his getaway route. But somehow all of this fails to properly stop the demon invasion, and ultimately even Jeff's uncle falls prey to the hellspawn. Fortunately for our three heroes, enter Stuart Combe, demonologist, who tells them all of these newly created demon will eventually form a giant super-demon, which is bad. But Stuart has the rock to destroy this super-demon, which is good. But then Stuart is killed right in front of our heroes' eyes - which is worse ...

Now going into Attack of the Demons, you better not expect an animation extravaganza on par with classic Disney animation as animation-wise, this film is more on par with the cut-out style popularized by TV's South Park, if quite a bit more advanced in movements and the like. But the style really befits the movie's story, an intentionally slightly trashy demon invasion story with enough hommages and asides to not be taken too seriously, but also enough heart to make one care, populated by some fun characters and seasoned by some pretty awesome monster designs, all bundled up in a really nice and entertaining genre ride.
