Did you people see the same film I saw?

The first must-see film of the year.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

First of all I don't know why so many people are like "I thought this was a horror movie". From the trailer or description alone it did not scream horror movie. It turned out to be pretty much exactly what I expected it to be. A movie about a band signing a deal with the Devil and the consequences and reality of making such a decision. Many people actually believe that this type of thing exists. But it really doesn't matter if you believe it or not because although the movie is seen as fictitious, it opens up a lot of doors when it comes to the journey of becoming the next big sensation in Hollywood. The trials and tribulations, the impact your actions and decisions make on not only your career but your whole future. Including your family, friends, and even your own soul. To the point where you can't even distinguish what is real and what isn't real. Now I'm not even a huge fan of metal and satan and all that jazz but the music in this movie was pretty damn good. Some people are upset it wasn't hardcore metal and considering the name American Satan you would think that it would be. But I feel like this will resonate with a lot more people than just targeting a specific group of listeners. I mean even if you like heavy metal you can listen to this and enjoy it. But if you don't like heavy metal it would ruin the whole movie. With all that being said I felt like the actors did a really good job and I was actually stoked to see Drake Bell in this movie because I wasn't expecting it. Sure you can argue maybe the Devil wasn't portrayed in the best way but I still feel like his cryptic and weird behavior made for an interesting and layered character. Constantly kept me on my feet wondering when he was going to return again and what he had to say next. I also wanted to learn a lot about his history which is always good for a film because it leaves you wanting more. Oh yeah and screw the bass player. Like seriously. What a lowlife piece of trash. Some are arguing that this film portrays sex and drugs in a good light but that's only true if you watch the beginning of the film. Which I wouldn't be surprised because a lot of people probably stopped watching it and tried to make a review based on something they didn't even finish. Just like life of course in the beginning it's all fun and games but eventually your sins and addictions will destroy you. It all starts when they make the deal and then quickly things start to go downhill real fast. I don't really see how you can say this movie is complete trash. It's nothing amazing but it's a decent watch and has a few highlights. Which is why I am rating it a 6/10. It's above an average meh film for sure.

What a truly, truly terrible film.What a truly, truly terrible film.What a truly, truly terrible film.What a truly, truly terrible film.What a truly, truly terrible film.

I think this movie is very entertaining.maybe it was better to make the story about a real metal band, but on the other hand,i do not think that the devil cares too much about who he can influence.as long as he can make his deals.the modern look on the faustian deal is good and if one does not take it too serious it is a nice movie to watch.there are so many stories about who was influenced by the devil.from bowie to the mamas and papas and the cast of Jesus Christ superstar. and many many more.just sit back, take some drinks and enjoy and it will all be fine.

I Knew About this Movie since it was Announced, and I Immediately knew it was going to be something unique and amazing. See, I tried having a band way back when, and it was impossible, in a place dominated by a Rap- Centric culture, it really made me want to go back to those days. It is literally a story about "Selling Your Soul for Rock'n Roll." A common trope in many musical artists of the Rock Scene. it's Satanic Imagery is used perfectly and a few touches with real world facts and knowledge, such as the Price of an Apple Computer and the Logo, it was such a great way to express just how Deep Conspiracies and The Devil Can go, if enough people believe in it. Anyways, talking about the actual Movie, it DID have it's flaws, by these were so few compared to the Positive aspects, to Avoid Spoilers i won't go into details, but the allusions to "Faust" were great, an the wy they blended together the true FEELING of being an up and coming rock-star were perfect. 10/10
