Further details
When Amy discovers her best mate is harbouring a mean-mouthed, hell-raised demon, she knows she has to act. Thankfully she isn't alone - she has Raquel. Impulsive, temperamental and prone to violent outbursts, Raquel isn't the obvious ally, but beggars can't be choosers. Together the incongruous duo prepare for their first exorcism. What could possibly go wrong?

Does E4 comedy horror Crazyhead, from the creator of Misfits, deserve the title of the British Buffy?
Louisa Mellor, Den Of Geek, 20th October 2016New British horror with plenty of absurd laughs from the creator of the similarly warped Misfits. Amy (Cara Theobold, a million miles away from Downton Abbey) discovers her best friend is possessed, and teams up with deliciously quick-witted Raquel (Chewing Gum's Susie Wokoma) to exorcise the demon. "I'm not a hell bitch. I work in a bowling alley," argues Amy, shortly before being chased by an evil gang. Expect darkness, clown masks and lots of one-liners.

Two women fight forces of evil on the mean streets of Britain in the new comedy horror from the maker of Misfits. He talks Twilight, zombie mermaids - and why all teens battle demons constantly.
