Critical Review

The following review is from the IMDb listing in the External Links below:

Dreamaniac is a typical 80's slasher movie directed by David DeCoteau ("Nightmare Sisters","Witchouse"). Another thing that ensues it's place in the history of horror is that the female lead is the lady who would go on to be known as Ashlyn Gere, one of the more attractive porn stars in recent years. The plot is simple: Adam, a heavy metal fan manages to summon Lily, a succubus. His girlfriend Pat talks him into letting her sister use his apartment to throw a party. When the party begins, the bloodbath ensues... Dreamaniac is pretty stupid, but there is plenty of gore... particularly the drill decapitation scene, lots of sex but little nudity and a lot of cheese. Don't expect too much and you won't be disappointed.
