(Steve Sayre)THE SATAN KILLER imdb.com
THE SATAN KILLER (1993) - If one could fart out a film, it would probably look and smell like this one. An alcoholic detective (Steve Sayre) goes off the deep end after his fiance is brutally murdered by a serial murderer dubbed the "Satan Killer" (James Westbrook) by the press. While the Satan Killer (aka "Jimbo") keeps going on a killing spree, shooting men, stabbing and raping women and hitting a handicapped wheelchair-bound man over the head with a beer bottle (!), the detective is also leaving a trail of bodies in his search for the killer, shooting everyone who gets in his way (including a poker player and a pimp who is bitch-slapping his whore). He eventually joins forces with a private detective (Billy Franklin) and a male nurse (Nick Delon) in his search for the killer, who really does nothing that can even be called Satanic except rape and kill (Don't be fooled by the cover box art). Alas, neither of them last very long as they are shotgunned down by the killer. As a matter of fact, the detective kills more people than the Satan Killer himself! Sloppily acted (many one-take shots are apparent), edited with what looks like a rusty spoon, hilariously-performed action sequences, sound recorded through a coffee can, bad early-90's music and filled with plenty of nudity and blood, this is truly a Z-movie fan's dream. Director Stephen Calamari (no squid jokes please) is actually a pseudonym for lead actor Steve Sayre (and why is he wearing a black stocking on his right leg during his sex scene?). He does neither very well. Sayre also wears the same yellow shirt throughout the film. Keep an eye out for it. You'll have some fun. This film is very funny if you watch it in the right frame of mind. But, I think it's illegal to reach that state. Also starring Belinda Creason and Cindy Healy. Also known as DEATH PENALTY. An A.I.P. Home Video Release. Not Rated
