Satan's Little Helper (2004)

- written March 2009

Summary: During Halloween, Jenna returns to Bell Island to spend the holiday with her family and her boyfriend Alex. Her younger brother Dougie is fascinated with the video game "Satan's Little Helper," and he leaves home on Halloween wearing his costume as Satan's little helper, seeking Satan himself on the streets so he can ask him to kill Alex. Dougie meets a serial killer who, coincidently, is wearing a costume of Satan and decides to help him. He brings the murderer home and that’s when things get interesting.           Overall: Decent little film but it only works when we suspend our disbelief to truly think no one will press “Satan” with who he is or what he‘s up to. The film is based on misunderstanding and that gets hard to buy for 90 minutes. It’s a unique film that has some new stuff here, but just not sure it was as greats as it could have been.           Comparison: Halloween 3 meets Halloween 5
