- "Under Siege: The Making of Tales From The Crypt Presents Demon Knight" is a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the film "Tales From The Crypt Presents Demon Knight". Excuse the watermark in the middle of the video.
This is my favorite Billy Zane movie. He brings so much of his witty humor to the movie. The whole cast is excellent. I've always been nuts for Billy since Dead Calm. He managed to even bring humor to that role.
probably the last good Billy Zane movie
He was also great as the superhero The Phantom
Was a stand out as top dollar in the crow
He killed this movie
That part where first gets pissed and takes off the cowboy gear....."how ya do podunk hillbilly cowboy mother fucker" I remember seeing this in the dollar theatre and was ROLLING
Such a classic underrated movie. I just watched it again today. It still holds up & the demons looked great
As technology improves a lot of older CGI movies will look bad in comparison. Movies that used great makeup and suits will always look good.
Wow.. first movie ever to be a classic and underrated at the same time lol.
They need to bring the story back and add to it i watched it as a little kid i was probably 8 or 9 when i watched a vcr recording of it i was born 5 years after release
i loved it when billy acknowledges robin williams acting as genie as his inspiration to play the demon knight.
Billy Zane plays the Collector. The Demon Knight (AKA Brayker) is the hero of the story.
Every time I hear "Hey man, nice shot" I think of the opening scene of this movie. Aaaannd Cemetary Gates reminds me of the nipple electrode scene...
That song during the opening was so cool to hear in the theater👍 Def made me a fan
same man
I agree man!!
Same here
It was like a tune-up and a lube-job..
RIP Dick Miller. Glad they got his interview for this before he passed on. Was really a special kind of actor that you always took notice of. I'll always have a soft spot for this movie and the mythology. Needs to be redone, but not as a crypt movie or series.
Pioneered the same attitude the great actors brought in the flic. A GREAT PRO
“Fucking ho-dunk po-dunk well them there motherfuckers!” 😂😂😂
Iconic!!
Can I just say, THIS FILM KICKED SO MUCH DAMN ASS! It’s such a fun movie and Billy Zane’s performance is absurdly awesome
Everyone has their own tastes. I happen to LOVE this movie.... I also think that everyone played their parts so well. I would love to see a sequel
Some look down on it. Believe it creates atmosphere, good characters, decent environment(motel...desert) the best of the Crypt movies. Still watch it
Bordell of blood was good as well
25th anniversary - January 13th. Happy 25th, Demon Knight!
25 years old and still so much fun to watch
Billy Zane is having a ball here
Billy Zane appears to be a totally cool, down-to-earth guy.
Demon Knight is an all time favorite and for good reason....I mean, what's not to like? An underdog up against impossible odds, always on the run...A champion of God fighting for the Universe, against the very destruction of God's creation itself!! Sadler brilliantly cast as the battleweary Brayker! And the bad guy...Fantastically played by Zane having the time of his life bringing comedy and edge of your seat tension, knowing as an audience that this friendly smiling stranger is more dangerous than people realise...Just the look of Brayker, tired of all those years of running, you can see it in his face and the Collector, handsome and fresh, the complete opposite.......Look it's fucking awesome, the storyline, the effects, hardheaded Roach frustrating the audience, Brayker, the Collector and ALL the actors...It's a gem, guys, and that's the truth!
☝️
you watched it for the tits.
And tons of 58008... 🤣
What's not to love?
I can't believe they didn't mention the soundtrack. One of the best soundtracks of the 90's!
It didn't really stand out to me.
@@wadewilson8011 Not a fan of Pantera, Megadeth, Filter, Sepultura, Melvins or the Gravediggaz?
@@lilitharam44 NOPE not really, only a very few of their songs are ok.
I prefer AC/DC, Audioslave/Soundgarden, G&R, Metallica, Ozzy and Black Sabbath, RHCP, STP, Alice in Chains.
@@wadewilson8011 Each to their own, Peace.

Great making of documentary. Also I love how Billy Zane doesn't age, at all!
I have a fond memory of my father taking me to see this as a kid... I was probably too young to see it but nonetheless we both had a blast with this flick. RIP dad, gone but not forgotten.
This is one of my all time favorite horror films.I never get tired watching this film. Billy Zane was great as the charismatic "Collector". He brought "devilish" charm to his role. This is the kind of film that demands multiple rewatches. Avoid Bordello of Blood at all costs.
We need a sequel for this.
I'm on it
@@ktriplett3209 there are problems with the rights of tales from the crypt, both hbo and tnt have tried to bring it back with no success
Tales from the crypt did do 2 more spin off movies after this, bordello of blood & ritual.
Neither of which are relative to demon knight though.
I personally think it's perfect as it is, any sequels would pale in comparison.
What they really need to do is do the other 2 movies that were originally planned for the trilogy cause Bordello of Blood and Ritual shouldnt count
Yeah they do. It was a good story that set us up for a sequel
This was the best Tales of the Crypt story of all. This is one of my favorite horror movie period.
Billy Zane should have won an Oscar.
Most terrifying sfx/makeup Id ever seen. This is exactly what Id imagine demons be like.
This story line is so original. Definitely needs a sequel.
One of my favorite horror movies ever. Saw it as a teenager and loved it ever since.
You should listen to your friend, Billy Zane. He’s a cool guy.
Zoolander lol
I’d actually love to see a prequel. Give us more details on Brayker’s adventures up to this point. Billy Zane (The Collector) had obviously been tracking him down for a while. I think it could be a great film.
That would be awesome see the previous adventures
Well, as we see at the end, there are other 'Collectors' that take over when one is destroyed, so it wouldn't have to be Zane, if perhaps Brayker had destroyed a previous Collector before him. But yeah. Just considering the great, gritty, schlocky tone of this kind of picture, I'd like to see it set in the '70s. Maybe '70s NYC (Brayker took over during WWI)
Demon Knight was not only a good movie but it had a cool bad ass soundtrack so 90s
This movie is how i discovered “hey man nice shot” song
RIP Dick Miller.
Legend for this film and Gremlins.
And....
Gremlins 2
The Howling
Trucker Turner
The Terminator
The Burbs
Small Soldiers
Project X
Night of the Creeps
Tales From the Darkside
V
I grew up watching him in all of those and TV shows.
Billy Zane would make an awesome Yul Brynner. If a biopic about him were to be made, Billy would be the man.
Demon knight is a classic. Bordello sucked. That's why this movie lived on.
Nessa W and it's funny because even the bordello of blood crew said it sucked also.
Nessa W I agree
Bordello completely screwed up the story.
I just saw the Video., but I have seen Demon Knight. I thought although it was under the Umbrella of TAles from the Crypt- It was a Great MOvie. I thought it was interesting what the Creators said about it being a Hero Movie and not rally a Monster Movie. I thought it was a Spiritual Movie as well. I liked it a lot and will try to watch it again. I thought there should have been a Demon Knight 2 which followed what happened with the Jada Pinkett Character. If I remember the Movie, she was basically a Criminal- a low life who God Choose to do good which is a nice Spiritual Message about Redemption.
i like the tv show the most. the tales from the crypt and vault of horror movies from the 70s were pretty good too.
I love the amount of love and respect everyone who worked on it had for the material, truly one of my fave horror movies of all time!!!...
I watched this last night for Halloween. First time I have seen it in 20 years I bet lol.
I just watched it for the first time in what must be almost 25 years the other night. I remember it repeating a lot on movies channels back in the mid 90s, but I'd forgotten it ever existed until the other day. Very enjoyable film.
One of my favs. Can’t remember how many times I’ve watched this film. Excellent cast, billy zane steals the show.
Demon knight is a classic because of all the moving parts. Bordello didn’t understand why demon knight worked and just kinda made a different meal from the same ingredients.
Even though Billy Zane was the devil I loved his character I really hope they make Knight of the Demons 2 love this movie.
He was a high ranked demon called the collector. He wasn't the devil
They’ll never make a demon knight 2 unless the make a remake which I hope never happens because you know remakes are never good
Demon Knight is awesome! imagine if it had a true hollywood budget. I always find myself coming back to Demon Knight as the years pass lol
Never knew this existed, thanks for the upload. Ive always liked this movie.
Billy zane should be Lex luthor!!! Hes perfect!! Altho in this interview he reminds me of The Kingpin
I second that motion;
Billy Zane should be Lex Luthor.
Pass it on to DC
I love this movie, I have since I saw it in the theater and I own it on VHS and DVD, and I'll keep buying it as new media comes along.
Jill....I saw it in the theater when it was released. Was a freshman or sophomore in H.S back then. Owned it on VHS, DVD, will pick it up finally on Bluray because in my eyes it has earned a Bluray spot in my collection. Has been an underrated film for years/from the start maybe. I know horror fans who talk so large of crappy independent horror films yet scoff at this movie. Regarding the independent films/just because a first time maker does a horror film that can be done by a college grad doesn't make it a GREAT FILM. Time after time have had this talk...just because it is horror & unknown DOES NOT mean it is worthy. Substance is a great word when it comes to horror. Found alot of substance in Demon Knight & other films. Always happy to share a comment w/fellow fans.😎
Demon knight was fun, campy in a good way, funny and has great characters (Billy Zane rocks in this!). And it feels like Tales from the Crypt. That's why it lives on!😊😊😊
My fave movie for the last 22yrs. Always will be. Even named my dog Brayker 😏
fAnGeDkOrNfAn
That's awesome. I wanted the key to display in my house
Has ALWAYS been an UNDERRATED FILM. A FANTASTIC FILM. ✌👍
Thank you for this documentary! I love watching this movie on Halloween
My all time favourite movie, I still watch it today, been watching it since I was 7 lol.
Best supporting cast with amazing acting from everyone. My favourites have to be William Zadler, Billy Zane, Jada Smith and the woman who played Irene (love her).
As the audience you feel something for each character because it was written so well. It has everything you want in a movie like this, it has horror, comedy, a bit of Romance and a religious back story.
It's so underrated and good that I wish they had carried it on as the trilogy it was suppose to be.
I love Billy Zane this movie is why even though he was amazing in Titanic but he owned this role so underrated
Never gets old bomb ass movie classic
i always thought there was a connection between from "Dusk till Dawn" & Demon Knight, this interview sheds light on that topic 2:35
I love Demon Knight. It was something new, fresh, unique, inventive, stylish, cool, edgy, hip, and updated such as the concept and themes due to being zany, bizzare, wicked, funny, and goofy. William Sadler and Billy Zane did a phenomenal and spectacular job portraying Brayker and The Collector as they both put tons of emotion and depth into their roles. It was decent. To this day I still watch it and I consider it a classic. It never gets old. 😍👍💯😎
One of my favorite freaking movies! Love you all! :)
Actors who play villains or monsters always come across as being the nicest people ever off-sreen, see also Angus Scrimm, Robert Z'Dar and Robert Englund and Michael Berryman. Also the fact Billy didn't deny he was losing his hair and just totally rocks that look like the king he is, and also...yeah I can see the Genie influence in Collector, as well as Betelgeuse.
*"Oh my goodness.. OH MY GOD!"... Legendary, me and my brother use so many lines from this perfect movie.*
This is in my top five favourite movies ❤️ Billy Zane is still hot 😍
Demon Knight sequel? Yes, please. :)
I'm still watching it now over, and over.
I must have watched this 100 times since release, oh man. Just was a sneaky pirate and watched it again, ah man. The memories!
My favourite movie of all time. Watched it on repeat as a child!
Saw it the weekend it came out. Me and the guys, senior year high school. THe good ol' days. Great movie.
Bad ass movie really well done the first time i saw it didnt even know what is was going to be about at all my dad brought it home same thing with the mummy great flim as well
Demon knight 2 please hurry up and make it all ready the 1st was a classic
Thanks for uploading this! I've been dying to see it
Billy Zane didn't age... He really is a demon! 😳
Thanks for the upload! Watched this movie so many times as a kid in the 90s. Billy Zane was awesome and the demons were scary as hell
it's a shame they didn't talk about Gary Farmer
I love the 80s and 90s shows
If you guys making another demon knight, can you please add the fans like me in it? Part 2 part 3 part 4 part 5 keep them going, make money baby.
Lol, imma put this up for laughs 13:10
I was in 7th grade and this came out and my mom dropped me a 4 friends off at the midnight premiere screening. House was packed and it was a ton of fun being 12. The entire theatre reacted as a whole wich hieghtend the experince. It was a great early experince highlighted by an awesome film. The demons flying around were truly evil and creepy, zane was hilarous and you could feel adlers pains. The aunt was a blast and jada had a perfect attitude. The entire cast was perfect and the movie is a personal favorite. I watch it more often then other favorites.
In the opening nude
scene my friend leo says aloud, damn her nipple is bigger than my head, and the entire 900 seat theater bust up laughing. Great knight
Really loved this show and it's very cool to get a view of what the actors thought and having more on the inside of it was awesome. Tales from the Crypt, insanely good. Demon Knight might be my favorite of them all. The actors blew me away, it was in someways so believable and in others just insanely funny. LOVED it! Thank you for presenting this.
Thank you for posting this video
You're welcome!
@@chrisk5204 I was born in 90, and I saw this in or after 2000. I had no idea it went to theaters, or that it was this big. Wish they had made sequels.
The best out there that hollywood ever produced of complete with the bad ass soundtrack
Whatever happened to Ernest Dickerson he was such a talented black director back in the 90's along with Antoine Fuqua, Tim Story, Spike Lee, and John Singleton.
I know he has directed episodes of The Walking Dead.
He directed a few episodes of Dexter too
He directed Surviving The Game with Ice-T..
He directed the movie juice
He did TV like the wire
I'll never forget going to see this as a teen in Times Square back in the mid 90's with some friends right as Times Square was changing.Bought the soundtrack,now have the novelization,t shirt and movie poster.Wonderful cast,great director,AMAZING effects and to think the original idea was about salesmen going door to door taking souls,WTF!?!
I recommend this to people every chance I get. It's amazing how many people don't know about this. Such a classic
Demon Knight is one of my favorite movies
I could empathize with every character in it
My hat is off to Billy his performance was so over the top and amazing
But the whole cast was phenomenal
What a classy... Billy Zane is the most charming evil in the movie history... Greetings from Colombia south America..
thanks for the upload😎👍
Demon Knight is outstanding. Bordello of Blood is great also. Very funny, like some episodes of Crypt were. I’ve never understood why everyone shits on BoB.
Same! Its a fun movie. Great scenes, fun soundtrack, ott acting that actually adds to the whole set. Its well worth a watch.
@@vykkye Couldn’t agree more. Angie Everheart did great and sold the role of Lilith quite well.
Ever see Ritual, the third TFTC flick?
@@Fecalage I've avoided it so far...I know, shame on me. I agree Angie seemed like she was down to really have fun in the role, its a shame the budget went to the Miller! Don't get me wrong he does a great job, but arrogance comes at a price.
If they kept to budget the effects, sets could have been elevated to a higher level.
I push BoB on all my friends every Halloween and I will continue to do so!
Great documentary. Only disappointment is there was no John Kassir involvement.
Thanks for sharing this documentary such a fun movie.
One of my favorite memories growing up was demon knight and tales from the crypt on fox 11 because we were poor in the projects and no one has fukn HBO
I grew up watching it over and over
I LOVED the short blonde hair.
Absolutely love this movie
THANK YOU!
I love TFTC
I love demon knight!
Thanks for this. One of my absolute favorites... More in this universe would be great
I remember in 4th grade some kid gave me the soundtrack to this movie. Such a confusing gift since I never heard of the film before. 2 years later I did finally end up seeing it on VHS. Made me sad that I didn't have cool enough parents to see it in theaters.
Any idea when this documentary was made? Before or after the sequel?
SpookeyClown great soundtrack
Love this movie since I was in high school. This evening I showed it to my 20 year old son who loves horror movies. He loved it! (Not bad for 1995, I said). He agreed! He said it was such a unique story. :D
Simply put this one stands alone. Friday the 13th, night Mare on elm.Street I seen them all in the theater. Night uncle Willy....
Damnnnnnn...... Father time did some MMA moves on Cordelia! Damn!
I've been waiting soooo many years for a sequal to this movie but the more I think about it, who can Really fill Zanes and Sadlers shoes? THIS is my favorite movie of all time, enough so that I got the key tatoo'd on my arm.
One of my favourite movies ever! I would love if they did a sequel or even a remake.
Yes I know there are some of you that will spew out; "If they remake this my childhood will be ruined"... Well how would it? The original won't vanish! But the story, the mythology and the characters would be interesting in a remake.
If a sequel was considered, show Jeryline killing the pursuing Demon collector from the ending of the last movie and have Billy Zane's Demon return where he has been waiting to return for a while since when a Demon dies, it's evil soul just gets sent back down to Hell. Maybe add some ruling that only 1 collector can walk the Earth at any one time blah blah, then Cue the return of Billy Zane's Collector. Boom!
As for a storyline? Well I have a few ideas floating ;)
that would be cool
I think it would be better off as a series. Television horror is lame these days.
marty mcfly you will be convincing m. Night directing
One of my fav movies watched it countless times.. Please make another as many people from original as possible. Could even have Breaker back as an angel knight.. Need Zane back as well.
Great movie, great book, and beyond those, it's simply a really good story in regards to the key, the protector and the collector spanned over many lifetimes.
Good movie, good cast ,Earnest Dickerson did a heck of a job directing.
Dickerson is awesome, damn good movie.. he should have made all the Tales of the Crypt movies (Bordello of Blood..) and got a sequel to Demon Knight.. such a cool cast
There really should've been a pt.2 to this.
Love this movie so much.
0:01 I had my phone on full volume m like 8 inches from my face. Just a minor heart attack.
What an awesome doc! Thanks for sharing!
Now I know who did the voice to Roger rabbit!!!
Love this film so much. Quirky and timeless for me. I saw it as a kid and it stuck with me the first time.
Billy Zane is the standout performance as a great villain.
William Sadler is excellent as the battle weary holy warrior hero, Brayyker.
You have a diverse cast. You're not certain as to who lives and who dies.
Two strong women characters, Irene and Jerryline. One of them becoming the eventual hero tasked with continuing the crusade after Brayyker.
The whole thing stands on its own and can also be expanded into prequels or sequels.
I'm anxious to see this one!
what a cast. brilliant mix of (back then) up-and-comers and industry legends
thank you for the upload
Actually one of my fav films 📼
R.I.P. Dick Miller.
