Problem with devil and hell movies
I have thought of this for years and I see a huge flaw in the whole Faustian type film or devil worship in general.
If you believe in the devil, then by extension you believe in God. You can't have A without B, but you can have B without A (as a lot of believers these days seem to do).
Given that worldview, why would you bet on the losing horse, pick the wrong side, knowing that both exist? Forty or fifty years of heaven on Earth is not worth eternal punishment or non-existence in the hearafter.
And contrary to what Hollywood portrays, no one actually worships the devil. The Church of Satan even states up front that it uses Lucifer and the trappings as a symbol, a metaphor for "Do as thou whilst," not "Do unto others."
Balkan actually comes pretty close when he mocks their silly rituals and orgies at the Chateau scene.
