"See what you get for disobeying Satan?", October 9, 2005
This review is from: Satan's Little Helper (DVD)
I rented this solely, and I mean solely, based on the cover and I'm glad I did. This movie was great! I originally thought it was going to be about a killer elf or something, but I was much cooler than that.
Douglas is a dweeby little kid who's obsessed with a video game called "Satan's Little Helper", so on Halloween afternoon when his oh so sexy sister (this girl is smokin' hot!) brings home her new boyfriend from college Douglas gets pissed and goes out looking for Satan and finds him! And brings him home.
I'm not going to give away anymore, but I really enjoyed this movie. It's not a horror movie, so don't expect THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE or anything, it's more of a very dark black comedy with lots of violence and killin'.

SATAN'S LITTLE HELPER; Great Movie with a twist!!!!!!, December 31, 2007
This review is from: Satan's Little Helper (DVD)
This movie was nothing like i've experienced before.
It sure has guts and bloods that would definately make you turn around, expecially when in one scene, Satan mauls out a poor pussy cat & writes BLOOD on the wall with it's own flesh.
It starts off with young Douglas playing with his video game entitled "SATAN'S LITTLE HELPER", while his mum and him are travelling through a small community town.
Once he spots Satan murdering the neighbourhood while trick or treating, 9 year old Dougie starts investigating every move until he catches him. The two then bond as friends and embark on a mission to kill to earn points from his game.
But Satan doesn't speak so he's a bit like another Jason Voorhees or Michael Myers mass murderer out for the kill.
Believe me, this horror will keep you on the edge of your seat from the start to finish.
The ending has a bit of a twist too. Or shall i say, is there really a ending???????

a rare halloween gem, May 18, 2008
This review is from: Satan's Little Helper (DVD)
Don't be misled by the DVD cover design. This isn't one of those "horrid" horror films, it is a bright, funny, charming and finely made horror film with all the classical horror story attributes of fun and art. It is colourful and atmospheric and unusually for these days all the characters are sympathetic, while the killer loses none of his ogre value in being funny. I've only seen this once, but I am certain this is a fine film that must become a Halloween classic. It excels in Halloween imagery. Like other good horror films it has a satirical theme underlying it, in this case that of the wrong type of video games drawing children into violence and personal disaster. Wholesome in every sense I think, hence the five stars.
