BLOGTOBER 10/25/2024: SATAN'S LITTLE HELPER, I GUESS

Goddammit, Joe Bob. Why did you fucking do this to me? I was really counting on The Last Drive-In to give me something cool to write up, without me even having to go to the trouble of choosing, but you really can't trust anyone these days. I don't even know what I want to say about this, but I can't break my blogtober oath to myself over SATAN'S LITTLE HELPER.

Jeff Lieberman, who once made some fascinatingly subversive movies like JUST BEFORE DAWN and BLUE SUNSHINE, decided he absolutely had to come out of a ~10 year hiatus to make this grossly inappropriate cheapie about a delusional little boy who thinks a costumed serial killer is his favorite video game character. I guess one of the messages here is that if you go into show business you have to find a way to stay there, because it could be confusing and difficult to transition into getting a regular job later. A huge portion of this alleged horror movie is just family hi jinx; the kid thinks the killer is a living cartoon, the sexy older sister thinks he's her boyfriend in disguise, and there's just, for some reason, a relentless stream of jokes about how the whole family wants to fuck each other. I do not know what that's about. It's one thing for the little boy to have naively icky feelings about his vivacious sister, but then the mom (Amanda Plummer, my darling, blink twice if you're not safe!) and the sister are always exchanging horny banter about each other, and like, I really did not get it. It's the kind of thing I usually only see in Victor Salva movies, and as far as I know Jeff Lieberman is not a pedo, so I don't know what his fucking problem was on this movie.

The film's main quality is this push-pull between being extremely infantile, like something for really little kids, and being intrusively inappropriate, whether it's the family talking about each other's bodies or the child having to watch his father get graphically murdered right before his very eyes, knowing that it's all his personal fault. I just had a really hard time picturing the ideal viewer of this movie.

Anyway, the last thing I'll say about it is that the older sister is played by Katheryn Winnick from Vikings and it made me kind of sad. Lagertha, my beloved, what did you let these freaks do to you? I guess the moral of the story is that you just have to eat a lot of shit if you want to be the queen of the vikings. The End.
