Demon 79 is the fifth episode of the sixth season of the popular television series, Black Mirror. Directed by Toby Haynes and written by Charlie Brooker, the episode takes the viewers on a nostalgic journey from the very first scene, imitating the style of productions from the past, including the opening credits and the characteristic B-movie style of the time.

The plot mixes comedy and terror, featuring a demon dressed in a Boney M costume, leading an innocent girl to commit three bloody crimes to prevent the apocalypse. As always, Black Mirror takes its viewers on a journey beyond their expectations.

The episode features Dammer encountering Boney M, a political shift, and a changing reality, reminiscent of movies like “Back to the Future” or “The Twilight Zone”. The parody is very well executed, effective, and intelligent, leaving viewers with a good taste in their mouth, both technically and stylistically.

Just when you thought it was safe to be on your phone again, the near-future sci-fi anthology series "Black Mirror" is returning to Netflix for season 6, with a star-studded cast and plenty more portents of doom.

Actually, though, this upcoming collection of stories won't just be another iteration of "what if phones, but too much." Creator Charlie Brooker told The Sunday Times that he's become "a bit bored" with the typical formula for the series. "I didn't want to be just hitting the same premises over and over again. Like, 'What if this app ruined your life?'" Brooker elaborated. "Or, 'Oh look! It turns out you're in virtual reality.' So there was a slight reset."

The first teaser trailer for "Black Mirror" season 6 dropped last month and teased such horrors as disco fashion and dial-up internet. There will be five episodes in the sixth season, and actors featured include Aaron Paul,...
