    • Quotes

      John Triton: [losing his patience] You're wasting my time, bub.

      Demon: This is incredible! It is almost no fun to kill one so stupid as to not know who it is that slays him! You are in my domain, and I will kill you as I have killed your pitiful friends!

      John Triton: [annoyed] Aw, you killed no one, bub!

      Demon: WHAAAT?

      John Triton: Or is it less familiar to call you Beelzebub? Or do you prefer Abaddon; or as the Hindus called you, Shaitan; or as you are known to answer to, Ahriman? Belial? Apollyon? Asmodeus? Because, you see... I *do* know you.

    let's tune our weapons
    this is by far the best of the worst. thor's wardrobe is that of 80s hair metal fame. the character stig's accent magically disappears near the "conclusion" of the film. the showdown between thor and stan is classic to say the least. easy to find so go rent or buy it now!!!
