    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The film came in 10 minutes short of its required running time. So director John Fasano and star John Mikl-Thor filmed sequences of John Triton driving the band in the van to the farm. Hence, the prolonged opening shots of the van driving to the farm.
    • Goofs
      When John searches downstairs, he's wearing stage make-up and his silver jacket. When he goes upstairs, he's clean-faced and wearing a sweater. Then when he goes back downstairs, he's wearing the make-up and jacket again.
    • 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.
