Don't bother fighting them at all..

Just get the horn and get out of the catacombs.

Practically speaking that only means you need to kill some mummies, skeletons, and one hell hound.

Run away - up and down the main staircase in the catacombes, out into the hallway of Custard Mansion, and they may become stuck on the stairs. Then you can pick them off with a ranged weapon. I intended to run up to the first floor of Custard Mansion, jump across to the room that housed the demon dogs and use a ranged weapon from there, but the brute didn't follow into the hall.

I don't know if it holds true in the CE, but in the original (patched) version he won't cross the collapsing floor, so simply lure him to it, go round to the other side an kill him with missiles.
