Amusing Horror/Comedy
jasonpaulcollum12 July 2003
This is a tight, entertaining short about a begrudged son and his June Cleaver-esque wife returning to the home of his deceased father and discovering that not only was his "supposed" father a Satanist, but that he is actually the first-born son of Satan himself. He must then decide whether or not to use the powers of Hell to reign on Earth.

Don't let the ROSEMARY'S BABY synopsis fool you...this is not a rip-off. It seems to play as more of a MADTV-type take on, perhaps, what ROSEMARY'S BABY might do when he finally figured out his namesake. Additionally, it has some genuinely creepy moments, and the actors balance the line between seriousness and goof-ball perfectly. Remarkably well done for its low-budget.

A fun movie

I was corresponding with the director of this movie and managed to get a free copy of it from him. Let's see, I LOVED THIS MOVIE!!! Let's start off by saying THAT THIS IS NOT A ROSEMARY'S BABY rip-off like everyone is saying! It is it's own movie, with an original plot, very good acting, and it had great camera work! I'm glad that it didn't play for straight horror and had some comic relief. Brinke Stevens did such a great job in this movie! It has to be her best performance since "Haunting Fear." I throw my hat off to Robert Benson for making such a great horror/comedy and I'm definitely looking forward to seeing more of his work in the future.
