mynameisMudd78 T @MuddyPopcorn 3d Gay. A bunch of tiktok attention seeking weirdos gathering around just to show off their nee skirts they found at hot topic. Dyed hair, septum rings, gay men with ZERO testosterone, scared little women who dpend all their time scrolling on their phones at Starbucks and cant wait for the next gathering to upload new pix to their facebook timelines. So lame. No nakedness. No evil. No rebellion or anarchy. They turned the whole spirit of Satanism into a gay group of losers eho want nothing more than 1000 likes on their pictures. Antoine would be so disappointed at what has become of his church.

Satanism is worship of the self. We are already seeing what a country full of people that worship themselves looks like. Making light of this topic is disturbing. I'm sure you all think I'm crazy tho because I'm not kissing this films ass and bashing crazy christians huh? See more Alex B @RT57446562 12/20/2023 I loved it! This movie changed how I looked at the separation of church and state, in the fact that it is not. And I am happy there is an organization that is challenging this, even if there ways of doing so is not what would be expected.

See more Natalie O @natalieboh 10/08/2022 Hail Satan? is one of those rare documentaries that manages to be both hilarious and razor-sharp, cutting through the noise of America’s endless “religious freedom” debates with wit, style, and a refreshing refusal to bow to piety. By following The Satanic Temple—a non-theistic group that uses cheeky, theatrical activism to expose hypocrisy—it makes an unassailable point: freedom of religion means all religions, not just Christianity, and if that makes lawmakers squirm, maybe the problem isn’t Satan, it’s their selective idea of liberty. What makes the film so effective is its balance of absurdist humor and serious commentary. The Temple’s antics—erecting Baphomet statues, organizing tongue-in-cheek “After School Satan Clubs”—are outrageous by design, but they also highlight just how fragile the Christian nationalist grip on “tradition” really is. Director Penny Lane captures this with a keen eye, showing us the spectacle without losing sight of the substance. The result is equal parts civics lesson and dark comedy. It’s ultimately less about Satan than about democracy, forcing viewers to confront whether they actually believe in pluralism or just in their own team winning. For that reason, Hail Satan? isn’t just entertaining—it’s essential viewing in an era where church-state separation feels more endangered by the day. Final rating: 5 out of 5 pitchforks, proudly waved for the First Amendment. See more Read all reviews
