Before we start, I've already looked over Harold Ramis IMDb page and there simply isn't enough material beyond Ghostbusters and Stripes. Groundhogs Day is a time warp film, it doesn't count as demonology. I'm afraid that parts of Dave Thomas's page are also going to be a slight retread for those who have not read the entire book.
Dave Thomas was in Stripes (1981) with The Devil John Candy as Ox. Obviously Bill Murray and Harold Ramis went on to make the supernatural film Ghostbusters. The movie also featured Judge Reinhold from Fast Times at Ridgemont High directed by Amy Heckerling from Clueless (a Three Fates Algorithm poster), and it had Sean Penn who starred in At Close Range with 976-EVIL's Stephen Geoffreys, and he was in Carlito's Way with The Devil Al Pacino from The Devil's Advocate. Judge Reinhold was also in Gremlins directed by Joe Dante from the cursed Twilight Zone The Movie. Judge Reinhold was also in the Beverly Hills Cop series with Eddie Murphy from The Haunted Mansion with the Three Fates Wallace Shawn from Princess Bride, Jennifer Tilly from High Spirits and Let It Ride, and The Devil Terrance Stamp from Teorema, The Company of Wolves, and Spirits of the Dead Toby Dammit. Judge Reinhold was also in The Satan Clause with The Devil Tim Allen. Yes it does classify as Demonology. Christmas was used to replace a pagan holiday Winter Solstice and changing the name while adopting the same customs does not change the meaning of the Holiday. Finally, Stripes had Warren Oates who was in Illuminati Steven Spielberg's Mega Bomb 1941 with The Devil John Candy. Warren Oates was also in The Border with The Devil Jack Nicholson from The Witches of Eastwick, and Warren Oates was in Blue Thunder with Roy Scheider from the Afterlife Film All that Jazz that foreshadowed the DEATH of Bob Fosse.
Dave Thomas was in the second SCTV film Strange Brew (1983) with his partner in crime Rick Moranis from the Greek Tragedy Little Shop of Horrors showcasing the Three Fates Algorithm in the Three Background Singer, Ronette Crystal and Chiffon. As explained in the opening chapter. Little Shop is an Allegory about a Deal with the Devil for Love, and at the end of the film, Rick Moranis sacrifices his love Ellen Greene to the plant Audrey II, unaware that the film production was haunted by Hecate, Greek Goddess of the Crossroads. Ten Years later, Rick Moranis's wife passed away leading to him leaving the Film Industry to raise his children. That appears to be how Hecate works, she puts a foreshadow in the movie right up in your face, and then five to ten years later it happens. Strange Brew had the first foreshadow before Little Shop in that the villain Max Von Sydow was in The Seventh Seal playing Chess with Death, he was also in Minority Report with The Three Fates Algorithm, and What Dreams May Come with the DEAD Robin Williams whose suicide contradicted the message of the entire film. Max Von Sydow also played The Devil in Needful Things but I'd argue he's one of the Hollywood Angels of Death. Paul Dooley cameos from the first SCTV film Going Berserk with The Devil John Candy, but he was also in Sixteen Candles which has the Three Fates Algorithm poster, and he was in the original ending of Little Shop of Horrors Directors Cut.
Dave Thomas was in Follow That Bird (1985) with The Devil John Candy. He's the villainous scum that kidnapped Big Bird, shoved him into a giant cage, and painted him up as the Blue Bird of Happiness. No, not John Candy, he's just hanging out as a police officer in the movie. Eddie Deezen from Surf II plays the voice of one of Big Bird's brothers and sisters in the foster home. Surf II got a Three Fates poster from the Vinegar Syndrome release and cursed actor Eric Stoltz out of his role as Marty McFly in Back to the Future. Sandra Bernard plays a waitress in Follow That Bird, she's from the Mega Bomb Hudson Hawk and The King of Comedy with The Devil Robert DeNiro from Angel Heart. Chevy Chase was the final cameo in Follow that Bird, from the Three Amigos doubling the Three Fates Algorithm.
Dave Thomas was in Moving (1988) with Richard Pryor from Brewster's Millions featuring The Devil John Candy as the Best Friend that encourages Richard Pryor to overspend all of his Thirty Million Dollar inheritance like an irresponsible jackass. Moving also featured young actress Stacey Dash who would become famous for Amy Heckerling's Clueless, a Three Fates poster foreshadowing the Death of Brittaney Murphy by putting her in Skuld's Place on the Box Cover. Moving also featured Randy Quaid from National Lampoon's Vacation also starring Chevy Chase, one of the Three Amigos showcasing the Three Fates Algorithm.
Dave Thomas was in Boris and Natasha (1992) with The Devil John Candy. What was the Devil John Candy doing in this movie? I'm afraid to watch it.
Dave Thomas was in Coneheads (1993), which showcased the Three Fates Algorithm on the SNL poster with Dan Aykroyd and Jane Curtin. While Jane Curtin's entire career is clean of Satanic Panic, she does have that one Three Fates poster for How to Beat the High Cost of Living decades before this new Three Fates poster with The Coneheads. Outside of the Supernatural film Ghostbusters, Dan Aykroyd was also in the Three Fates movie Crossroads as the Evil Brittaney Spears father. The Devil Eddie Griffin also had a blink or you'll miss it cameo in Coneheads, he played The Devil in Bad President recently, but there are other warning signs throughout his career that Eddie had come into contact with the Three Fates. He's featured in Armageddon, The Mod Squad, and Undercover Brother, all three of which have Three Fates Algorithm posters. The Devil Eddie Griffin was also in Norbit featuring Eddie Murphy from The Haunted Mansion with the Three Fates Wallace Shawn, Jennifer Tilly, and The Devil Terrance Stamp. Michael McKean, who was one of the Three Fates in This is Spinal Tap is featured as a villain in the Coneheads. The movie also has its share of DEAD ACTORS in Phil Hartman and Chris Farley, plus there is the Son of the Devil Adam Sandler from Little Nicky. Parker Posey has a small role, she played a villain in Josey and the Pussycats, which got a Three Fates poster. And finally there's David Spade from the Three Fates haunted poster Grandma's Boy and The Benchwarmers. He was also in Reality Bites with Highway to Hell's Ben Stiller but what the hell, we'll let it slide.
Dave Thomas was in Rat Race (2001) a film where nearly all the central actors on the back of the DVD box are connected to DEATH in some manner... Seth Green as DEATH to Verne Troyer on Austin Powers, John Cleese as DEATH from Monty Python's The Meaning of Life to Graham Chapman, Whoopi Goldberg from Ghost as DEATH to Patrick Swayze and she played the GRIM REAPER in Monkeybone, Mr Bean's Rowan Atkinson as DEATH to Alan Rickman in Love Actually, Cuba Gooding Jr as DEATH to Robin Williams in What Dreams May Come (or Max Von Sydow too), Jon Lovitz as DEATH to Jack Palance in City Slickers II, Breckin Meyer as DEATH to Brittaney Murphy in Clueless (Actually it was Wallace Shawn but you get the idea)... yes Amy Smart escapes but Kathy Najimy was one of the Three Witches in Hocus Pocus aka Salem Witchcraft... good luck on the sequel.
