As we all know, Sandi Gardiner (aka Mae Demming), VP of marketing and wife of head honcho Chris Roberts, moonlights as an "actress".
Her latest is an unforgettable tripe called
American Satan which is getting panned across the board.
It made $132K in its opening weekend.
Gorf compiled the festivities:
Deadline: American Satan's opening weekendMeanwhile, the critics are raving about American Satan.
"Metal Jim"
says of the film:
"I would say that this movie is one big pile of poop. In a bowl. American Satan: a great big pile of shit."
"Whitetrashjoeyfoly"
declares:"The movie... was a little bit disappointing to be honest with you."
Indiewire
exclaims:
"A Friday the 13th release about a rock group entangled in a horror plot is directed by John Avildsen’s son Ash and others associated with Rob Zombie. The horror flick played at a range of big-circuit general audience theaters nationwide with mixed results. What comes next: Not likely to sustain any significant theatrical toehold."
100% 2010 Black Veil Trash
delights in the film's deep literary parallels to ancient scripture:
"It follows the story of Job where the devil and God fight it out over who Job will ultimately follow. Andy’s character ‘Johnny’ (Faust) is clearly based off Job."
(Somebody get the Coen Brothers on the line, their own
allusive treatise on the ancient text has just been outclassed.)
Oh hi guys!.
