I want a horror movie where demons are fighting a anti-hero


I'm tired of these same type of cliche horror movies like Insidious, The Conjuring, Sinister and etc. Why not being creative and make a movie where you actually see the demon fighting against a villain?

Because that would be an action movie then

A horrible action movie filled with useless pg13 fight scene, actually you should watch ghost rider movies, you'll definitely love them.

Try your luck with Constantine. The movie not the TV Show.

Write a script and make it. Nothing is stopping you. You gotta make the content you want to see these days.

Try Demon Knight http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114608/ if you haven't already. William Sadler was quite the anti-hero there fighting Billy Zane and a bunch of flesh-eating demons and then there's From Dusk Til Dawn http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116367/?ref_=nv_sr_2.

Yep, I was going to say exactly those 2 - gory action/horror hybrids seem to be what the OP is looking for.

And, if you want more cerebral takes on anti heroes vs demons/the devil there is The Devils Advocate http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118971/?ref_=nv_sr_1 and Angel Heart http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092563/?ref_=nv_sr_1

I was going to reply with Demon Knight as well.

This is something I liked about The Collector movies.
And also the movie The Neighbor starring the same actor, Josh Stewart.
For a change, the hero is not some normal guy or an innocent family. I found it refreshing and original.
No demons though.
