Satanic Panic '87

About This Movie

Satanic Panic '87 is a quirky blend of comedy and horror that really nails the vibe of the late '80s. You’ve got these two metalhead protagonists who unwittingly invite chaos into their lives after following a satanic aerobics tape. The film embraces its absurdity with a playful tone but doesn't shy away from some genuine horror moments. The pacing is a little erratic, bouncing between laugh-out-loud scenes and unsettling imagery. Practical effects play a big role here, lending a retro charm that's hard to resist. Performances are on point, capturing the over-the-top essence of both the metal culture and horror tropes of the time. It’s distinctive for its oddball premise and a fresh take on satanic panic themes.
