This is a cool flick. If you've ever seen the show The Night Stalker, you'll recognize some similarities. An ambitions (and often obnoxious) reporter is investigating a series of gruesome murders that point to some sort of cult ritual. He uses his connections within the police department to get more info than most reporters. He is also investigating an extremely wealthy businessman and his company. These two stories end up meeting when it is revealed that the businessman and his associates are actually satan worshippers! They've turned to the dark side and have been making sacrifices to gain more and more wealth here on earth.
This is a cool concept and is played out with lots of cynical humor. A title like "Satan-Worshipping Yuppies" might not sell this video as well, but would be a pretty good name, giving you the idea that mixed with the bloody gore and a few scenes of nudity, there's a wry sense of humor - and that's what pulls this movie above others like it, that turn out to be depressing gore-fests. The only drawbacks were the sometimes over-the-top performances by the reporter and a heavy-metal satanist. From a practical aspect, this was shot on video and run through the filmlook process, and the lighting, angles, sound and effects on this are terrific. I wish I could tell you about the ending because it is by far the greatest part of this flick - great effects, great acting and a final plot twist that had me laughing for days. Recommended!
