And in the restaurant with the wife ... he IS Satan! Second - I've never considered Pacino's "devil" very seriously because, it was not a stretch for him! Al Pacino IS the Devil! Third - Viggo was excellent, also! Fourth - Curry's "devil" was EXACTLY as I have pictured the devil, ever since I was a child! I would NEVER want to run into him ... anywhere!

Also, interestingly, one of the only movies I can think of where the devil is portrayed as a 'good guy' errr girl, who helps the agnostic Depp overcome her own psychotic admirers.As other's have mentioned, there was also the Devil in End of Days (I can never resist the temptation when watching that movie to quote Predator at a key point in the movie where Arnold has just apparently 'hurt' the devil and appears about to say something, it's fun to blurt out "if it bleeds, we can kill it!" ...but i digress)Also as someone else mentioned there was a 'satan-character' in The Passion of the Christ (which is arguably more of a religious movie than a purely entertainment focused one).

In FZ he reworks "Minnie the Moocher" as " Squeezit the Moocher" while backed by the Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo.( Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo was a street/theater group before they cut it down to form rock band Oingo Boingo.)If you like bizarre cult films like Rocky Horror... give this a try...it makes Rocky horror look like it made by Disney.
