The only catch?He's the Devil, and he's got some plans with The Relentless.American Satan is the directorial debut of the indie-metal record label Sumerian Records's CEO, Ash Avildsen, and stars Black Veil Brides frontman Andy Biersack, Ben Bruce of Asking Alexandria, Booboo Stewart, John Bradley, and Malcolm McDowell.

Double Standard: Rape, Female on Female | |
American Satan / int_3a79872e | comment |
Double Standard: Rape, Female on Female : Subverted hilariously. The mother of an avid groupie interrupts the band during something of an orgy, catching Lily and the girl in the act. When the mother runs to the media and tries to claim she will charge Lily with statutory rape, the girl takes the mic and hollers that seventeen is the age of consent in that state and her parents don't have sex anymore, leaving both Mum and the newscaster speechless. | |

Adaptational Attractiveness | |
American Satan / int_557838d1 | comment |
Adaptational Attractiveness: Zig-Zagged. Played straight with Gabriel, who was an older gentleman in the film and a young, attractive man in the series. While not unattractive in the least, the actor who played Lily in the film is androgynous while TV Lily is much more feminine looking. Fairuza Balk, also not unattractive, is much rougher looking and crazier than her film counterpart. Exaggerated with the recurring character who replaced Malcolm McDowell's role, now a hot younger woman. | |

Rags to Riches | |
American Satan / int_c772e7c5 | comment |
Rags to Riches : The early part of the film shows us a montage of the band's scrabble just after arriving in LA. It doesn't last long after they make a deal with Capricorn. | |

Johnny Faust and his girlfriend Gretchen. Given that the film is a Whole-Plot Reference of Goethe's version of Faust, this makes sense. | |

American Satan / int_e41a9801 | comment |
All Women Are Lustful: As with any retelling of Faust, almost all the women in the film are shown to be heavily attracted to Johnny, to the point to where a mother straight up offers her daughter's virginity to him. | |

Expy: Johnny Faust is both one for Johann Faust and for the actor that plays him. Johnny dropped out of college and moved from Ohio to Los Angeles to start a band with the hopes of big success. Andy Biersack was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, and dropped out of high school to move to Los Angeles to achieve fame with Black Veil Brides. | |
