Night of the Demons (1988)

Angela is having a party, Jason and Freddy are too scared to come. But You'll have a hell of a time.

A group of Catholic High School students decide to abscond to an abandoned funeral parlor "Hull House" for Halloween. What they don't count on is that the parlor is infested with blood thirsty demons which are unleashed upon the unsuspecting party goers during a seance. The demons inhabit the bodies of their victims, resulting in about 90 minutes of utterly hilarious, gore-infused fun.

Night of the Demons is a classic for sure. Along with Evil Dead, it sits at the top of the food chain in terms of demon-possession related movies and stands out above the seemingly endless plethora of cheese-ball 1980's horror flicks. It has a fun soundtrack, and a whole lot of weird and wonderful scenes. What is up with that lipstick? It's got some characters you want to see shredded by demons, and some that you can root for to. It spawned two amazing sequels and in September 2010 a remake will be released much to the excitement of horror fans who know what they are talking about everywhere.
