The Church
Directed by Michele Soavi
Ravenous demons imprison visitors inside an ancient church in the third entry in the Italian "DEMONS" series. Though Mario Bava's son Lamberto directed the first two films, for this entry, assistant director Michele Soavi (CEMETERY MAN) took over, while Bava and DEMONS 1 and 2 co-writer Dario Argento penned the screenplay. The result is a heart-stopping nightmare featuring an onslaught of gory horrors that will have you steering clear of old churches on your next Italian vacation. Asia Argento stars, while Philip Glass (CANDYMAN) provides the scary score.

The back story in the beginning of the film wasn't needed, and and was lame. After that it really takes off and is marvelously eccentric at every turn. Everything is connected you have to pay attention.
The back story in the beginning of the wasn't needed
Excellent Classic horror of brilliant 1980s Italian directors. I see folks thought the stories werent connected, yes they are. You need to watch the qhole film. The earlier part in the past is directly part of the later modern church happenings.
great movie 🥰
A couple interfering scenes, but, like everybody else said, there's no cohesion. It was all so random and unrelated.
