Feb 20, 2021
This book is an eye-opener, highlighting the failures in prison reforms, the amount of drugs in the prisons, as well as other internal goings on. Atkins writes with emotion and humour, you feel his despair at the separation from his child, and the frustration of life behind bars. You will also find yourself laughing out loud.
If you like biographical tell alls, you will enjoy this one.

For the most part, it's masquerading as a serious horror trip, with the odd burst of humour, and occasional 80s rock anthem thrown in. It subjects the viewer to nasty gore, disturbing practical effects, trippy cinematography, it's overall strangeness complimented by its slightly off dub work. It's uncomfortable in parts, certainly hypnotic in its execution.
All of this, before diving headfirst into schlock territory where a dude slaughters hordes of monsters with a katana whilst riding a motorcycle, as an Accept song blasts in the background. Pretty damn wonderful.
Rightly considered an essential 80s horror, Demons is still an effective movie today. Well worth any horror fan's time.
