Between The Devil’s Candy, Deathgasm, and the upcoming Sadistic Intentions, it looks as if Metal has penetrated the horror genre in a serious way as of late. Look no further than the upcoming feature, AMERICAN SATAN, for further proof. While the trailer itself offers little as to what’s awaiting horror fans, it promises to be fueled by sex, drugs, and anti-religion speech if nothing else. And if you’re asking me, that’s A-OK.

Billed as being produced by the folks behind the Halloween remake and The Devil’s Rejects, AMERICAN SATAN appears to share the same gritty aesthetic as the aforementioned titles. Just–you know–without the ludicrous Zombie dialog. If that sounds like something you’d be into, you don’t have to wait long. This one is headed to theaters on October 13th.

We’ll share more information on home video release as news comes our way, but until then, check out the NSFW trailer below (seriously, please don’t watch this at work unless your employer is the dark lord himself).

Plot Synopsis
Set in the land of dreams, AMERICAN SATAN tells the story of a young rock band, half from England and half from the US, who move to the Sunset Strip to chase their music dreams. Living in a van, their passion and talent exceed their means to survive when an enigmatic stranger (Malcolm McDowell) preys on the emotional turmoil lead singer Johnny Faust (Andy Biersack) finds himself after learning of his mother’s (Denise Richards) illness.

Manipulating this time of weakness for the band, he offers them a deal that will set them on a path of fame, fortune, and ultimately dark destruction. Caught in the middle of a pact with the devil himself, their music and controversial altercations end up influencing society beyond anything this century has seen.
